Production of cellulose fibres from different resources and in different dimensions and physical properties

Cellulose and pulp Wood is the main source (>90%) to produce plant-derived cellulose. While in theory any tree can be used for pulp-making, coniferous trees (softwood) are preferred because the cellulose fibers in the pulp of these species are longer, and therefore make stronger paper. Some of th...
