Manufacturing Processes and Market Trends:
Cotton linters are used as the core raw material in the manufacture of banknote paper cotton pulp. After dry impurity removal, opening, low-temperature low-alkali cooking, chlorine-free or low-chlorine bleaching, fine beating and sand removal purification, high-purity pulp board is made. In the process, fiber length and strength are emphasized, and indicators such as whiteness, fluorescence and dust degree are strictly controlled. With the help of continuous steaming, twin-screw extrusion and high-dryness pressing equipment, pulp uniformity and production efficiency are improved, and water consumption and energy consumption are reduced.
In terms of market trends, the global requirements for the safety and durability of legal currency substrates continue to increase, promoting the cotton pulp process to be clean and green, element-free chlorine bleaching, wastewater cascade utilization and resource recycling become the mainstream direction, and at the same time, the production line accelerates the evolution to continuous, automatic and digital control, realizing online monitoring and quality closed-loop control of the whole process. Anti-counterfeiting requirements are increasingly diversified, prompting the substrate design to expand to composite structure and functional fibers, taking into account physical strength, anti-aging and environmental adaptability, forming a development pattern characterized by high security, high stability and green low carbon as a whole, supporting the long-term reliable use of banknote paper in complex circulation environments.
