Abstract

Different grades of wastepaper such as white blank news (Grade A), computer printout (Grade B), magazine (Grade C), old newsprint (Grade D) and packaging paper (Grade E) were recycled and the effect of recycling on pulp yield, fibre length, tensile strength, tear resistance, modulus of elasticity, stretch were investigated. The morphological and physical properties of fibres were affected by recycling and there were significant reduction in the physical properties of the recycled paper. Based on the findings of this investigation, Grade D and E handsheets were of better qualities for recycling back to marketable paper products.

Keywords: Wastepaper, recycled papers, handsheets, tensile strength, fibre lengths
