English term or phrase: groundwood pulp
Definition from Media Paper Management:
Wood that has been broken down into pulp by a mechanical grinding process and thus retains a higher proportion of the wood raw material

Example sentence(s):
  • Groundwood pulp has a high yield of approximately 95 % and has a high level of opacity but its strength is relatively low, due to its lignin content. Siemens AG
  • Acidity is one of the most important causes of damage in paper as it weakens and eventually destroys the fibres that make up the paper. As a result, paper made from groundwood pulp breaks down rapidly from within. The first sign of this is that the paper becomes yellow, then brown, and increasingly brittle. Victoria and Albert Museum
  • Processing wood fibre obtained from four separate sources, including thermomechanical pulp (TMP), recycled pulp, groundwood pulp and kraft pulp, the mill produces more than 540,000 ADMt of newsprint each year. borealforest.org

tremasse
Definition:
Tremasse er en mekanisk fremstilt papirmasse. Det anvendes hovedsakelig til fremstilling av avispapir og magasinpapir. I Norge er råvaren hovedsakelig gran.

Fremstillingen av tremasse skjer ved at man presser en kubbe uten bark og bast mot en sylindrisk hurtigdreiende slipestein samtidig som det tilsettes vann (mekanisk defibrering). Denne blandingen av trefibre og vann utgjør tremasse.

Example sentence(s):
  • tremasse: oppbløtt masse av trevirke som brukes som råstoff for papir og kartong, slipmasse - Bokmålsordboka  
  • Fra 1860-årene starter også produksjonen av tremasse og cellulose for fullt. De gamle sagbruksprivilegiene ble gradvis opphevet utover 1800-tallet, slik at også bønder fikk rett til å skjære planker og bord fra egen skog. Dette førte til etablering av en rekke mindre gårdssager. - Maihaugen museum  
  • Gjennomføring av investeringer i tremasse- og papirindustrien krever inngående erfaring og solid teknisk ekspertise. Det å kombinere krav til økt produksjon med stadig strengere miljøstandarder er en spesiell utfordring. Sweco møter utfordringen uansett om prosjektet gjelder konstruksjon av et nytt anlegg eller modernisering av en eksisterende enhet. - Sweco group
