Mechanical properties of different conventional wood pulp fibers

[m96nun]

I'm looking for a comprehensive synopsis on anisotropic mechanical properties of different conventional wood pulp fibers. More specifically I would like to know the:

*Longitudinal Young’s modulus of the fibres, E11
*Transverse Young’s modulus of the fibres, E22
*The Poisson ratios: v12, v23
*The shear modulus, G12

This values could either be experimental or calculated. Fibres could be e.g. Liner, Thermo mechanical pulp (TMP), Chemo thermo mechanical (CTMP), Softwood kraft pulp (SKP), Hardwood kraft pulp (HKP), etc.

Any suggestion?

Sincerely yours,

Cristian

I would suggest getting in touch with the US Forest Products Lab in Madison, WI, USA. They do have a website, but I think you would be better served by calling them. There is also an association of pulp and paper makers, I'm sorry I don't have the exact name but I'm sure a web search will find it.
