We observed that the O2 delignification pattern of aspen kraft pulps was distinctly different from that of pine pulps based on a reduction in the apparent pulp kappa number. Much of this phenomenon can be attributed to the variation of the residual extractives and hexeneuronic acid (HexA) unit content in the unbleached and O2-delignified pulps, as they interfered with the conventional lignin determination methods. However, after a correction for contributions from these non-lignin components, the hardwood kraft pulps still displayed a lower response to O2 delignification than the pine pulps. It appears that the relative reactivity of residual lignin in the hardwood and softwood pulps differs appreciably with the extent of kraft delignification, and is a significant factor affecting the overall O2 delignification reaction.
