A comprehensive understanding of bamboo fiber（Ⅱ）
Paper requirements：
High-quality finished paper has higher requirements for pulp raw materials, requiring high cellulose content and low lignin, polysaccharide and other extractives.
Paper performance：
The research shows that bamboo chemical composition and fiber properties have good pulp performance, bamboo pulp performance is second only to conifer wood pulp, better than hardwood wood pulp and grass pulp.
Bamboo Kind | Coniferous wood | Hardwood | Grass kind | |
Cellulose | 45.50% | 51.20% | 43.24% | 35.23% |
Hemicellulose (pentosan) | 21.12% | 8.24% | 22.61% | 19.30% |
lignin | 30.67% | 27.97% | 17.10% | 11.93% |
other | 2.71% | 12.59% | 17.05% | 33.54% |
It can be seen that among the four comparative materials, bamboo(Mao bamboo) is the pulping raw material second only to Coniferous wood.
Performance：
It is not only used in conventional textile but also it is very useful for high performance end uses as a composite material due to high tensile strength, durability, stability.
Paper：
Bamboo cellulose content is high, the cellulose form is slender, the mechanical properties and plastic properties are good,bamboo as a better alternative material for wood and paper making raw materials, can meet the pulp requirements of manufacturing medium and high-grade paper.
Sanitary purpose & medical uses:
Sanitary materials: bandage, mask, surgical cloths, nurses wear and so on. It has incomparably wide foreground on application in sanitary material such as sanitary towel, gauze mask, absorbent pads, and food packing.
Due to its anti-bacterial nature, non-woven fabric has wide prospects in the field of hygiene materials such as sanitary napkin, masks, mattress, food-packing, bags.
