Cotton Linter Sheet Pulp refers to high-purity cellulose pulp produced from cotton linters, which are short fibers remaining on cotton seeds after the ginning process. After cleaning, cooking, bleaching, and sheet forming, the pulp is processed into sheet form for easy storage and transportation. Cotton linter pulp has very high cellulose content and low impurity levels, making it widely used in specialty paper, cellulose derivatives (such as CMC, HPMC, nitrocellulose), pharmaceutical excipients, food additives, and chemical industries.
The upstream of cotton linter sheet pulp includes cotton linters, cotton seeds processing plants, chemicals such as caustic soda, bleaching agents, and water treatment chemicals. Midstream manufacturers produce cotton linter pulp through pulping, bleaching, and sheet forming processes. The downstream mainly includes specialty paper manufacturers, cellulose derivative producers (such as CMC, HPMC, MCC, nitrocellulose), pharmaceutical excipient manufacturers, food additive companies, and chemical manufacturers.
