- The presence of fibrillated cellulose reduces the voids between fibers in the sheet becoming smaller or closed, providing more fiber-network bonding capacity [100]. The lignin content of CTMP could act acting to protect these fiber-fiber bonds at a high temperature.
- Due to a more hydrophobic surface character of the paper after hot-pressing technology [101].
- New water-resistant bonds such as covalent bonds are formed during hot-pressing [102].
