The possibility of the characterization of sheet formation by image analysis with transmitted light was evaluated. Specific perimenter, average perimeter and variation could not be used to predict the sheet formation because there were no corrleation. Although image analysis method still have a lot of problems , it was found that the contrast intensity obtained by image analysis with transmitted light can be used to predict the sheet formation. In the case of highly filled sheet, the intensity of transmitted light was too low to characterize the sheet formation . However, it was possible to characterize the formation of unfilled heavy weight paper($\leq$200g/㎡).

This study was carried out to investigate the sheet formation properties of Morus Hanjis, made of bast and whole stalk pulps by different pulping methods, such as alkali, alkali-peroxide and sulfomethylated pulping. Two species of Morus, M. alba and M. lhou, were used. Effect of morphological properties of pulp stocks on the sheet formation and its gray levels based on optical property were evaluated using an Image analyzer. In addition, the effect of fiber distribution index(FDI) which was calculated from tile data of Confocal laser scanning microscopy(CLSM) on the sheet formation and optical properties of Morus Hanji were also discussed. On the sheet formation, Hanji from whole stalk pulp was superior than that of bast pulp. The more the sheet formation improved, the more paper opacity decreased. In the aspect of Hanji's surface characteristics analyzed by an Image analyzer, the average gray level and its standard deviation of Hanji from the whole stalk pulp were rather lower than those of bast pulp because of better sheet formation of the former. However, high brightness Hanji showed high value of gray level. The sheet formation and paper opacity were increased with the decrease of standard deviation of gray level. From these results, gray level measurement could be used to predict the paper opacity as well as sheet formation. Sheet formation of whole stalk Hanji and its FDI measured by CLSM were higher than those of bast fibers. In conclusion, the sheet formation and opacity of Hanji could be evaluated by standard deviation value of Hanji's gray level using an Image analyzer and by fiber distribution index using CLSM.

This experiment was conducted to reduce the cost of orient leaf using izmir, samsun and basma scraps in cigarettes manufacturing process. We manufactured rolled and paper sheet tobacco using orient scraps and substituted orient leaf in Pine tree to the rolled and paper sheet tobacco using orient scraps. Orient scraps were lower in total sugar, total sugar/nicotine and total nitrogen/nicotine, higher in nicotine and crude ash than those of orient leaves. Izmir and basma scraps were higher of 2-methyl butanoic, 3-methyl butanoic and 3-methyl pentanoic acid, but the chemical contents in samw scraps were lower than those of orient leaves. The specific gravity thickness, flness index, filling value were similar between orient scraps blended sheet tobacco and present sheet tobacco. The physical characteristics of orient scraps blended sheet tobacco were within Present sheet tobacco quality specification. The sheet tobacco using orient scraps was higher 2-metal butanoic, 3-methyl butanoic and 3-methyl pentanoic acid than those of present sheet tobacco. The rolled processed sheet tobacco using orient scraps was higher 2-methyl butanoic, 3-methyl butanoic and 3-methyl Pentanoic acid than those of paper sheet tobacco using orient scraps. The sample cigarettes using orient scraps sheet tobacco were lower 2-methyl butanoic, 3-mettwl butanoic and 3-mettwl Pentanoic acid than those of control cigarettes. The result of sensory test showed no great difference compared with sample of orient scraps and control cigarettes. This result shows that we can possible to substitute orient leaf to orient scraps to reduce the cost of orient leaf.

To evaluate the anisotropic characteristics of Korean traditional paper-Hanji, the physical and mechanical characteristics of hand-made hanji, and machine-made hanji were investigated in this research. The densities of copying paper and newsprint paper appeared to be two times higher than the densities of hand-made hanji using Ssangbal sheet forming and hanji made of paper mulberry fiber. The breaking length, and tear index of both Hanji using Owangbal sheet forming, and hand-made Hanji using Ssangbal sheet forming appeared to be different according to the directions in paper. The breaking lengths of Hanji using Owangbal sheet forming showed little differences according to the directions. Breaking length of Hanji using Ssangbal sheet were slightly higher than those of Hanji using Owangbla sheet forming. The breaking lengths of machine-made hanji, copying paper, and newsprint paper were two to four times higher than those of hand-made Hanji. The breaking length showed higher differences according to the direction than the tear index. The tensile strength according to the directions in paper showed significant differences (${\alpha}$=0.05) in all papers used in this research.

This study was performed to develop the new type enzyme immobilization sheet from carboxymethylated refiner mechanical pulp (CRMP) substrate. Enzyme immobilization was attempted to couple carboxyl groups of CRMP with amino groups of the enzyme, trypsin, through the reaction of carbodiimide reagent, 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl aminopropyl)-carbodimide (EDC ). Immobilization carrier, water insoluble CRMP fraction (CRMP-IS), was successfully reacted with the enzyme, formed peptide linkage like -CONH- at 1680$cm^{-1}$ / and new ester linkage like -COO$CH_3$, methylester at 1735$cm^{-1}$ /, and produced enzyme immobilized substrate (CRMP-IST). The enzyme immobilized handsheet was prepared by mixing the above chelated enzyme immobilized substrate(CRMP-IST) with kraft pulp by paper sheet machine like papermaking process. The sheet weight and strength were increased with increasing dosage of CRMP-IST, and decreased at more than 10％ mixing of CRMP-IST, but higher than the controls. Concerning activities of immobilized trypsin(CRMP-IST) sheet by caseinolysis, the teared-off sheet with shaking was shown higher enzyme activities than sheet shape without shaking. In conclusion, this enzyme immobilized sheet would be expected easy handling for practical application and reutilization.

Multi-ply sheet forming has many advantages including the possibility of using wide range of materials in a given structure, lowering production cost, making higher grammage products and so on. But, incorrect structure of sheet makes flow resistance higher so that it shows poor dewatering in press section. One of major factors that affect sheet structure and dewatering property is fines content in each layer. We, therefore, examined the press dewatering of multi-ply sheet that has the different fines content in each layer and the effect of fines distribution on physical properties of sheet to find a technology for optimum utilization of raw materials. In case of two layered sheet, the sheet which was composed of layers with the different flow resistance showed higher dewatering rate than one which has the same flow resistance. And the more difference in fines content for layers existed, the more dewatering occurred. For three layered sheets, dewatering is mainly dependent on fines content of bottom layer. Strength properties were affected by dewatering degree and multi-ply sheet structure.

This study was attempted to develop the Special Sheet Former for Hanji (Korean Traditional Paper), which could be easily used anyone who has no any special skill, and to evaluate its sheet forming characteristics. The sheet former for Hanji was designed, manufactured and tested its sheet forming features. This former was resulted in superior even basis weights and good formation of sheets without any special technological experiences, but poor consolidation according to the difficulty of web pressing during dewatering process. Sulfomethylated pulping resulted in the superior pulp with high yield and better quality compared to those of alkali and alkali-peroxide pulps. Since the pulp was so bright, there was almost no need additional bleaching.

This study was performed to identify the effect of calendering variables on the properties of coated paper such as sheet gloss, surface roughness, opacity, etc. The effect of calendering variables including the number of nips, pressure, machine speed and moisture content on the properties of coated paper was investigated. The calender was installed with two steel rolls and one cotton-made roll. With this calender, the coated sheets were passed through the calender from 1 to 4 times, applying the linear pressure on calender rolls, 5 through 100kg/cm and operating the machine speed 3 to 12m/min. Also, the moisture content of coated sheet was varied about 5 and 10%. It was found that sheet gloss and surface roughness of coated paper was increased with increasing the number of passing nips, linear roll pressure and the moisture content of coated paper. But it was shown that the opacity and brightness of coated paper were decreased under the above conditions due to the blackening. It was also suggested that the soft nip possibly increased the thermoplasticity of coating layer with the heat of steel roll, resulting in the reinforcement of surface properties positively. The sheet gloss and surface roughness of coated paper could be improved by the longer dwell time over the rolls.
