Popis:	The principal objective of this research project is to study the breakdown mechanism of Jack pine (Pinus banksiana) earlywood (EW) and latewood (LW) in thermomechanical pulping by means of microscopic observations. Characteristics such as fiber splitting, shortening, delamination (internal fibrillation), external fibrillation, etc. are evaluated. Physical changes in the EW and LW fibers are qualified and quantified with the aid of light microscopy as well as scanning electron microscopy. The impacts of the observed changes on pulp and paper properties are assessed to establish possible interrelation between the fiber characteristics and paper properties.
