Abstract (en)

There is provided a bleached high temperature chemithermomechanical pulp and a method for producing said HT-CTMP comprising the steps:a) providing wood chips comprising softwood, hardwood or mixtures thereof;b) impregnating the wood chips with an impregnation liquid to obtain impregnated chips;c) transferring the impregnated chips to a heating zone without compressing the impregnated chips;d) heating the impregnated chips in the heating zone with steam having a temperature of above 140 °C, such as at least 150 °C, such as at least 160 °C, to obtain pre-treated chips;e) defibrating the pre-treated chips to obtain a pulp;f) bleaching the pulp to obtain a bleached pulp; andg) refining the bleached pulp at a consistency of 3-8 wt. % to obtain bleached HT-CTMP.
