Legacy products and breakthrough innovations supporting a broad range of processes

Paper manufacturing continues to grow as demand for pulp and packaging increases. Simultaneously, continuous cost pressure is forcing mills to innovate for productivity and develop products of greater value. BASF inorganic chemicals can help by providing materials of high purity and improved performance, supported by expert technical support.

Examples of applications include:

Aluminum Chloride

  • Production of parchment

Sodium Metabisulfite and Sodium Bisulfite Solution

  • Bleaching of ground wood

Sodium Sulfite

  • Optimization of CTMP and TMP processes for the production of semi-chemical and chemical pulp

Hydrosulfites / Adlite®

  • Bleaching agent for increasing of brightness for newsprint paper, office paper, tissue and folding boxes
