Abstract:

In this paper, four different kinds of waste textile materials including synthetic(light), cellulose fibers(light, dark) and cotton fiber(light) were used as raw materials in the paper-making industry. After the waste textile materials were processed into fibers, those fibers were mixed with wood pulp, respectively, and made in to handsheets. The physical properties of each group of handsheet were analyzed. the results show that the handsheets were excellent in permeability, and the permeability is 91.70～100.00 μm/(pa*s) and 9.6～10.44 times of that of wood pulp paper(control sample). The mechanical properties of the blending handsheets is 27.8～55.6% of that of wood pulp (control sample) handsheet. Besides, the whiteness of the regenerated paper is determinated by the color of the waste textile materials.

Key words: waste textile, blending paper, handsheet, performance
