lyocell molded bodies an e p stage block 120 follows the d stage block 118 the e p stage is the hydrogen peroxide reinforced extraction stage where lignin is removed from the pulp using caustic in an amount ranging from about 20 to about 50 lb ton the amount of hydrogen peroxide ranges from about 20 to about 60 lb ton which may be lower than a conventional bleach plant that processes pulp from wood chips having a specific gravity not considered within the low specific gravity range of this invention the temperature of the ep stage ranges from about 75 to about 95 u00b0 c in one embodiment a second d stage block 122 follows the e p stage block 120 the amount of chlorine dioxide used in this stage ranges from 10 to about 30 lb ton which may be lower than a conventional bleach plant that processes pulp from wood chips having a conventional specific gravity not considered to be within the low specific gravity range of this invention the temperature of the d stage ranges from about 60 u00b0 c to about 90 u00b0 c one embodiment of a pulp made from low specific gravity wood has a hemicellulose content of at least 7 hemicellulose a pulp viscosity less than 32 cp a copper number less than 2 0 and in some instances less than 1 3 tappi t430 a weighted average fiber length less than 2 7 mm and a coarseness less than 23 mg 100 m other embodiments of pulps made according to the present invention have a combined copper manganese and iron content less than 2 ppm a total metal load less than 300 ppm and a silicon.
