Natural fibers have been extensively studied as a reinforcement filler in obtaining composites, replacing partially synthetic fibers. The vast majority of these materials originate from agro-industrial waste with a high content of lignin and cellulose making it a very interesting material with low cost and good mechanical properties. The purpose of the study was to obtain a composite based on alkyl ketene dimer resin, for the manufacture of sustainable packaging, made of paper by adding a 10% (w/w) con-tent of green coconut fiber and sugarcane bagasse fiber, and evaluated the impact of the filler on the mechanical behavior of the systems. The studied material was characterized from mechanical tests, such as Ring Crush Test (RCT) and Concora Medium Test (CMT) evaluating the maximum resistance supported by centimeter in the pre-pared composites, by the specimens. Through the RCT tests, with 10% w/w fibers, it was possible to verify that the fiber from sugarcane bagasse reached an increase of about 1% in the reinforcement effect compared to pure paper, and a difference of up to 2% in strength mechanics in relation to coir fiber, and CMT tests shows the reinforcement effect of the presence of sugarcane bagasse fiber, with an increase of about 3% compared to pure paper, and with a mechanical strength higher by 1% compared to coconut fiber. Therefore, the study was funneled with sugar cane fiber, varying the content by 20 and 30 % (w/w), evaluating the impact on the dispersion of this filler in the polymeric matrix and, consequently, the mechanical response of the composite with these compositions. The conclusion of the study was that the system prepared with 20% (w/w) was the one that achieved the greatest optimization of the mechanical properties, evaluated by the tests. This type of material can be applied to obtain cardboard boxes with resistance to high loads, due to the achievement of good mechanical properties.

Currently, paper pulping production from woody materials has many disadvantages due to its high energy, chemical, water consumption, methane emissions, and deforestation. However, the use of non-woody materials solves these problems. This study focused on the use of non-virgin raw material (Enset leaf fiber) in pulp and paper making.

The little binder migration in the consolidation phase of coating color made a contribution to the forming of the coating layer, which made the coating surface more smother to printing performance.

There was a certain amount of fibers in paper sludge, including the short fiber and small fiber. Collagen fiber was a compound with high bond energy, which can be reused from the leather solid waste, and contained many polar groups. Both fibers can be well combined with Hydrogen bond. So the collagen fiber and paper sludge were studied as raw materials, mixed with plant fiber, to make corrugated paper. The results showed that, when the wastes were used to make the corrugated paper, its central pressure indicators could reach its national standard.

In this study, paper sludge ash, a waste from pulp and paper industry was used as a filler in fabricating Plaster of Paris/paper sludge ash composites. Various percentage of paper sludge ash was used, namely 1wt.%, 3wt.%, 5wt.% and 7wt.%. The effect of paper sludge ash on the compressive strength of the Plaster of Paris was studied. The mixed powder of paper sludge ash and Plaster of Paris were form into a 6 mm diameter and 12 mm height cylindrical samples. The composites were characterized theirs density where it shows that the density decreased as the amount of paper sludge ash increased. The compressive strength of the composites also decreased from 11.67 MPa without paper sludge ash addition to 0.50 MPa at 7wt.% paper sludge ash. However, the requirement of strength for Plaster of Paris in industry is between 8.96 MPa to 20.68 MPa. From the SEM observation, sample contain higher percentage of paper sludge ash exhibited more porosity. Therefore with the addition of 1wt.% of paper sludge ash into Plaster of Paris can be a promising construction material.

The wet picking and wet repellence of offset papers were studied using IGT-gst2 printability tester according to change printing conditions as printing speed and the amount of fountain solutions. It was showed that the phenomena of wet picking and wet repellence occurred in turn on the surface of offset papers with increased printing speed and the amount of fountain solution. In addition, in contrast with fountain solutions, printing speed had greater influence on the phenomena of wet picking and wet repellence of offset papers.

The properties of offset paper and art paper including smoothness, gloss and absorbability, dot percentage and the tri-stimulus values of every dot areas and solid areas of the printed paper samples were measured. Dot gain curve and chromatic diagram were drawn after dot gain values and chromatic coordinates (x, y) were calculated. The results showed that smaller dot gain value and greater color gamut occur on the art paper due to its higher smoothness, gloss and lower absorbability when the printing conditions were the same, so the printing dot reproduction quality on the surface of art paper is better. However because offset paper has lower smoothness and gloss, higher absorbability compared with art paper, therefore the dot reproduction quality on offset paper is not as good as art paper.

In order to predict and control the ink penetration depth, The base properties of 5 offset paper were firstly measured, namely, tightness、smoothness and K&N ink absorbency, etc. Then the penetration depth when offset magenta ink of the same volume entered into these papers was tested after printing. It was analyzed on the influences of offset paper and print processes on ink penetration depth. Finally, the relationships between the ink penetration depth under pressure and that under no pressure were studied. The results showed that both the tightness and smoothness of offset papers had impact on ink penetration into the paper internal structure, and the total ink penetration depth was about 1/5~1/3 of the thickness of the offset papers. In addition, the ink penetration depth under pressure was obviously lager than that under no pressure.

In this experiment, we use corn starch as the main raw material and use Mid-Temperature a-amylase to modifie it. The influnce of temperature and time to viscosity of the enzymatic starch were discussed. In this way, we can get the optimal conditions about enzymatic modification. According to testing properties of the paper ,we know about its surface sizing effect. At last,we explored the influnce of AKD to surface sizing. The results showed that the optimal conditions are as follows: the optimal enzyme reaction temperature of 65 °C and the ptimal enzyme reaction time of 20min under the condition that the substrate concentration of 20%, the dosage of enzyme of 0.02%, the dosage of calcium chloride of 0.04%, pH 6, gelatinization temperature of 95 °C, and gelatinization concentration of 10%.Under this condition, the viscosity of starch paste is 11mPas. Compared with original paper, sizing increased by 16.20%, burst index increased by 10.50%, tensile index increased by 12.60%. The AKD can significantly improve the degree of sizing, compared with the original paper, the degree of sizing increased by 26.5%.

Based on the domestic OCC pulp as raw material, it was found that the optimum conditions for laccase treatment were: the concentration of laccase 16U/g dry pulp, the pulp consistency 5%, temperature 50 °C, pH=5.0 and reaction time 90min. OCC treated with laccase alone can improve paper strength properties. The dry tensile index and wet tensile index of the control sample were 21.80 Nm/g and 0.22 Nm/g, respectively. The dry tensile index and wet tensile index after OCC treated with laccase alone were 23.36 Nm/g and 0.28 Nm /g. Comparing to the control pulp, the dry tensile index and wet tensile index of OCC treated with laccase were increased by 6.88% and 27.3%, respectively. At the same time, the laccase system can obviously improve the strength of the pulp properties with adding the mediator, especially using histidine, the dry and wet strength of paper was largely improved.
