The aim of the course:
The main purpose of paper fabrication lesson is to teach technologies of paper and paperboard production to students. It is aimed to give knowledge water chemistry and relation between water chemistry and papermaking, to provide the students knowledge lignocellulosic materials, pigments, filler materials, retention of them in paper sheets, wet and dry strength chemical, surface coating, to give them to evaluate fibre preparation, beating, refining, screening and cleaning, to help them to understand internal sizing, surface treatment and formation of paper sheets, to help them to know Fourdrinier paper machine design and construction and formation methods, drying of paper sheeets and calendering.
 
Learning OutcomesCTPOTOA
