Anatomy-based papermaking potential of some woody plants under different ecological condtions
(Univ Bio-Bio, 2024) Hizal, Kamile Tirak; Birtuerk, Turgay
The increasing use of wood in the forest industry and reduction of forest resources have prompted the pause of wood. Wood samples of each species were collected from two different regions in Turkiye: the Kozan region, which has a Mediterranean climate, and the Yuvack region, which has a mostly oceanic climate. The species included in the study were Phillyrea latifolia (mock privet), Arbutus andrachne (greek strawberry pentine (cyprus turpentine tree), and Rhus coriaria (elm-leaved sumac). All fibers were classified as short. The longest fiber was observed for Spartium junceum (spanish broom) in Kozan. The fiber diameter was highest for Arbutus andrachne (greek strawberry tree) from Kozan, followed by Rhus coriaria (elm-leaved sumac) from Yuvack and Laurus nobilis (bay tree) from Kozan. The fiber dimensions and the relationship between them were statistically analyzed. These included the slenderness ratio, flexibility coefficient, Runkel ratio, rigidity coefficient, Luce's shape factor, F-factor, and Muhlsteph ratio. Although differences in fiber properties were detected between the two regions, it was determined that these were not enough to affect the desired properties for paper production. It was concluded that the fibers could be used in pulp, paperboard, and corrugated board production when mixed with long fibers.
