Abstract:

Bast fiber as raw material for bio-pulping has become a hot topic for its environmental-friendly and high quality fiber for paper in pulp and papermaking industry. In this paper, the reaction of the mulberry bast enzymatic pulping has been researched. It was treated with pectinase, find the best environmental factors, such as temperature and pH value, The results show that: from the changes of pectin content, pentosan content and Kappa number to determine the optimal temperature was 50°C, and pH value was 4.
