Bleached mixed tropical hardwood, acacia, softwood and bamboo kraft pulps were used as raw material. Drum Dryer, which was almost restrained was used for drying handsheets. Ring crush test and short span compression test methods were used to measure compression strength. Bleached mixed tropical hard wood and acacia kraft pulps were refined by using PFI Mill at the revolution of 0, 2000, 4000, 8000. Bleached softwood and bamboo kraft pulps were mixed with bleached mixed tropical hardwood kraft at the percentage of 20, 40 and 60 separately. Refining increased compression strength as well as drainage time. Refining was limited by drainage time. Addition of bleached softwood kraft pulp with bleached mixed tropical hardwood kraft pulp improved compressive strength but addition of bamboo pulp with mixed tropical hardwood pulp had no effect on compression strength UR - http://203.159.5.9/ait-thesis/detail.php?q=B07321 ER -
