  2. Bleaching of wood pulp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleaching_of_wood_pulp

    Bleaching of wood pulp is the chemical processing of wood pulp to lighten its color and whiten the pulp. The primary product of wood pulp is paper, for which whiteness (similar to, but distinct from brightness) is an important characteristic. [ 1 ] These processes and chemistry are also applicable to the bleaching of non-wood pulps, such as ...

  3. Dissolving pulp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolving_pulp

    Dissolving pulp. Dissolving pulp, also called dissolving cellulose, is bleached wood pulp or cotton linters that has a high cellulose content (> 90%). It has special properties including a high level of brightness and uniform molecular-weight distribution. [1] This pulp is manufactured for uses that require a high chemical purity, and ...

  4. Wood-free paper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood-free_paper

    Wood-free paper is paper created exclusively from chemical pulp rather than mechanical pulp. [1] Chemical pulp is normally made from pulpwood, but is not considered wood as most of the lignin is removed and separated from the cellulose fibers during processing, whereas mechanical pulp retains most of its wood components and can therefore still be described as wood.

  5. Optical brightener - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_brightener

    Paper brightness is typically measured at 457 nm, well within the fluorescent activity range of brighteners. [5] Paper used for banknotes does not contain optical brighteners, so a common method for detecting counterfeit notes is to check for fluorescence. Optical brighteners have also found use in cosmetics. One application is to formulas for ...

  6. Papermaking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papermaking

    Papermaking is the manufacture of paper and cardboard, which are used widely for printing, writing, and packaging, among many other purposes. Today almost all paper is made using industrial machinery, while handmade paper survives as a specialized craft and a medium for artistic expression. In papermaking, a dilute suspension consisting mostly ...

  7. Standard illuminant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_illuminant

    Appearance. Relative spectral power distributions (SPDs) of CIE illuminants A, B, and C from 380 nm to 780 nm. A standard illuminant is a theoretical source of visible light with a spectral power distribution that is published. Standard illuminants provide a basis for comparing images or colors recorded under different lighting.

  8. Surface brightness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_brightness

    A truly dark sky has a surface brightness of 2 × 10 −4 cd m −2 or 21.8 mag arcsec −2. [9] [clarification needed] The peak surface brightness of the central region of the Orion Nebula is about 17 Mag/arcsec 2 (about 14 milli nits) and the outer bluish glow has a peak surface brightness of 21.3 Mag/arcsec 2 (about 0.27 millinits). [10]

  9. Paper and ink testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_and_ink_testing

    Paper test. Paper and ink testing Tests for paper and ink interaction. A variety of tests are used to determine ink and paper and paperboard quality, and to measure their interactions. They are necessary to balance print quality, cost, and wear on the press. Some of the important paper and ink tests are listed here:
