ratio with 15 alkali and 25 sulfidity charge the alkali was sourced from sodium hydroxide 70 and sodium sulfide 30 weak black liquor u02dc 20 solids was used to makeup liquid digester additives lipohydrophilic glycerol based polymers were added to the black liquor which was mixed well and then combined with the white liquor all cooks began at 55 u00b0 c and the temperature was quickly ramped to 170 u00b0 c for a total cooking time of 3 hours after that the cooking capsules were placed under cold miming water for approximately 10 minutes the contents were then transferred to cheesecloth and squeezed under warm water to remove the majority of cooking liquor the pulp was then diluted with warm tap water to 800 ml and disintegrated in waring blender for 30 seconds the resulting slurry was transferred to cheesecloth and washed three times with 800 ml of warm tap water the pulp was broken down by hand into small pieces and all rejects were removed the resulting pulp was oven dried overnight and weighted the pulp was allowed to dry in the cth room for 4 days to an average consistency of 92 kappa numbers were determined using tappi test method t 236 samples were prepared of lipohydrophilic polyglycerols and were compared with a.
