Abstract
The paper presents some laboratory investigations carried out to evalu ate the effects of alkalinity and hydrogen peroxide dosage on the qual ity of pulp obtained from Asclepias syrica fiber by alkaline-peroxide treatments. A number of testing indices were used to characterize the pulp, such as: plup yield, brightness, carboxylate content and paperma king potential. The experiments performed evidenced that alkalinity va riation leads to obtaining of pulp with different papermaking properti es.
