High-yield pulp (HYP) has various fractions, and they not only play an important role in the papermaking process but also affect paper properties. Hence, it is necessary to clarify the impact of different HYP fractions on paper formation and properties. In this study, the characteristics of poplar preconditioning followed by refining chemical treatment alkaline peroxide mechanical pulp fractions were determined, and their effects on paper formation and paper properties were investigated. The results show that the HYP fiber is not as flexible as the bleached wheat straw pulp fiber. Compared with the HYP long-fiber fraction, the short-fiber fraction can improve the formation index more favorably. It was also found that the long-fiber fraction can maintain the strength properties, while having a negligible effect on the light-scattering coefficient; on the contrary, the short-fiber fraction can improve the light-scattering coefficient effectively but reduces the strength properties.
