Raw material for pulp molding production 2: bamboo pulp

29 Jun, 2024 2:16pm

Bamboo pulp is a good raw material for pulp molding (plant fiber molding) products. Bamboo fiber belongs to the category of medium length fibers, with properties intermediate between coniferous wood and broad-leaved wood.

The products produced using bamboo pulp have strong toughness and are less prone to cracking when producing deep products. The surface is smooth and delicate, with a high whiteness. However, after friction on the surface of the product, it is easy to produce plush like fibers. When the proportion of bamboo pulp used exceeds 40%, grinding treatment should be carried out to eliminate the appearance of fuzzy fibers on the surface of the product.

Bamboo pulp is often used to manufacture high-end mobile phone packaging inner pallets, cosmetics packaging, and tableware. It is a good raw material for pulp molding. The production of products with complex shapes, small slopes, and R angles generally requires the addition of a certain proportion of bamboo pulp. Due to the preciousness of bamboo pulp resources and its slightly higher price compared to bagasse pulp, it is currently mostly used in a certain proportion with bagasse fibers to increase performance and reduce costs.
