Semi chemical pulping processes, using both acid and neutral sulfite liquors, were ap!)lied to the following six Arkansas Delta hardwoods: black willow, southern cottonwood, American elm, sugarberry, green ash, and bitter pecan. Pulping conditions for yields of 75 to 80 percent were determined and the properties of both the pulps...
A method is described to determine the distribution of the bending stresses in a wood beam when some of these stresses exceed the proportional limit. This is used to calculate the position of the neutral axis and the bending strength of some Douglas-fir beams. The calculated values agreed with the...
Hardwoods, including aspen, comprised 22 percent of the pulpwood. received in the New York and New England States pulp mills in 1944 when war-time conditions favored the use of all available wood. The denser hardwoods alone, however, amounted to only 9 percent of all the pulpwood, and this value is...
