Abstract:
This research aims to study the physical properties such as moisture content, grammage, imbability and mechanical such as tension and explosion of leaves manufactured from the reed plant (paper-stem-whole parts of the plant) by kraft method without adding any resin and comparing them with the results after adding PVA to determine the areas of use of the resulting leaves. The results of the research showed that the cane plant can be used in the field of paper industries due to the high content of the plant of fiber and the experiment proved the possibility of manufacturing paper samples of the plant and the experiment showed the improvement of the physical and mechanical properties of the paper produced when adding PVA and the high value of the grammage of the paper produced. The research was conducted at the University of Aleppo, Faculty of Agricultural Engineering,Wood Technology Laboratory,in the Department of Renewable Natural Resources and Environment,and the Paper Laboratory in the industrial City of Aleppo on1\7\202.
Keywords: reed, pulp, kraft, Productivity, cellulose, PVA.
