Goal(s)
Learning outcomes:
- To understand the influence of unitary operations on the physical properties of pulp and paper,
- To know the main properties of paper material,
- To list and state the relevant structural properties: porosity, thickness, weight, specific volume,
- To understand structural anisotropy: knowing measurement methods and how it influences physical properties,
- To analyze the main physical characteristics of the paper material (mechanical, permeability, burst strength, roughness, tear strength, absorption),
- To know the relevant quantities related to thermal transfer phenomena in papers,
- To know how to reproduce the coloration of paper.
