Abstract

The demand of papers is increasing with the population increase. This will definitely increase the need of wood fibers as the main raw material. However, due to the wood shortages, there have been many attempts to use non-wood fibers as substitutes for papermaking. Rice straw is abundantly produced in Indonesia as one of byproducts of rice milling. In this experiment, delignified rice straw was mixed with used paper in order to make recycle papers with acceptable properties. Two-step soda pulping process of rice straw was carried out to remove out lignin. First delignification was conducted using 7% NaOH at 70oC for 1 hour. NaOH concentrations (4%, 6%, 8%) and temperatures (40-80oC) were varied during the second pulping process. The tensile strength of resulting pulp was increased with the increase of NaOH concentration and temperature until the optimum condition and then decreased. The optimum condition was achieved at the NaOH concentration of 6% and temperature of 50oC. Tensile strength, water uptake and kappa number obtained on this optimum condition were 4.641 N/mm2; 0.0184 g/cm2; and 10.02, respectively. Two-step soda pulping process improved the quality of recycle paper in terms of mechanical properties, water resistance.
