question:  In which century did the process become less cheaper than before?
is_impossible: yes

question: Which French inventor helped F.G. Keller to develop their own process?
is_impossible: yes
context: Its knowledge and uses spread from China through the Middle East to medieval Europe in the 13th century, where the first water powered paper mills were built. Because of paper's introduction to the West through the city of Baghdad, it was first called bagdatikos. In the 19th century, industrial manufacture greatly lowered its cost, enabling mass exchange of information and contributing to significant cultural shifts. In 1844, the Canadian inventor Charles Fenerty and the German F. G. Keller independently developed processes for pulping wood fibres.

is_impossible: yes

question: What process doesn't change the properties of the fibres used in papermaking?
is_impossible: yes

question:  What part of the Cyperus wood was used in making papyrus?
is_impossible: yes
context: The word "paper" is etymologically derived from Latin papyrus, which comes from the Greek πάπυρος (papuros), the word for the Cyperus papyrus plant. Papyrus is a thick, paper-like material produced from the pith of the Cyperus papyrus plant, which was used in ancient Egypt and other Mediterranean cultures for writing before the introduction of paper into the Middle East and Europe. Although the word paper is etymologically derived from papyrus, the two are produced very differently and the development of the first is distinct from the development of the second. Papyrus is a lamination of natural plant fibres, while paper is manufactured from fibres whose properties have been changed by maceration.

qas: question: What is separated from the cellulose fibres?

question: What is combined with the cellulose fibres?
is_impossible: yes

question:  What type of paper is wood made from chemical pulps known as?
is_impossible: yes

question:  What percentage of fibres are used in the bleaching process?
is_impossible: yes

question:  What percentage of cotton is not cellulose?
is_impossible: yes
context: To make pulp from wood, a chemical pulping process separates lignin from cellulose fibres. This is accomplished by dissolving lignin in a cooking liquor, so that it may be washed from the cellulose; this preserves the length of the cellulose fibres. Paper made from chemical pulps are also known as wood-free papers–not to be confused with tree-free paper; this is because they do not contain lignin, which deteriorates over time. The pulp can also be bleached to produce white paper, but this consumes 5% of the fibres; chemical pulping processes are not used to make paper made from cotton, which is already 90% cellulose.

qas: question: How many chemical pulping processes are there?

is_impossible: yes

question:  What decade did the sulfite process stop?
is_impossible: yes

question:  What process is least commonly used?
is_impossible: yes

question: What is another process used to pulp straws with low silicate content?
is_impossible: yes
context: There are three main chemical pulping processes: the sulfite process dates back to the 1840s and it was the dominant method extent before the second world war. The kraft process, invented in the 1870s and first used in the 1890s, is now the most commonly practiced strategy, one of its advantages is the chemical reaction with lignin, that produces heat, which can be used to run a generator. Most pulping operations using the kraft process are net contributors to the electricity grid or use the electricity to run an adjacent paper mill. Another advantage is that this process recovers and reuses all inorganic chemical reagents. Soda pulping is another specialty process used to pulp straws, bagasse and hardwoods with high silicate content.

question: Besides the thermomechanical process, what is a process not used in pulping?
is_impossible: yes

question:  What is not the main ingredient in the groundwood process?
is_impossible: yes

question:  What strength of wood is produced by mechanical pulps?
is_impossible: yes
context: There are two major mechanical pulps, the thermomechanical one (TMP) and groundwood pulp (GW). In the TMP process, wood is chipped and then fed into large steam heated refiners, where the chips are squeezed and converted to fibres between two steel discs. In the groundwood process, debarked logs are fed into grinders where they are pressed against rotating stones to be made into fibres. Mechanical pulping does not remove the lignin, so the yield is very high, >95%, however it causes the paper thus produced to turn yellow and become brittle over time. Mechanical pulps have rather short fibres, thus producing weak paper. Although large amounts of electrical energy are required to produce mechanical pulp, it costs less than the chemical kind.

qas: question: Recylced papers can be made with what new type of pulp?

is_impossible: yes

question: What type of clay damages the characteristics of the pulps used in papermaking?
is_impossible: yes

question:  What besides china clay is not used as a filler?
is_impossible: yes
context: Besides the fibres, pulps may contain fillers such as chalk or china clay, which improve its characteristics for printing or writing. Additives for sizing purposes may be mixed with it and/or applied to the paper web later in the manufacturing process; the purpose of such sizing is to establish the correct level of surface absorbency to suit ink or paint.

is_impossible: yes

question:  What is used to collect rain when hand-making paper?
is_impossible: yes

question:  Besides a blotter sheet, what can not be used to collect water?
is_impossible: yes
context: Pressing the sheet removes the water by force; once the water is forced from the sheet, a special kind of felt, which is not to be confused with the traditional one, is used to collect the water; whereas when making paper by hand, a blotter sheet is used instead.

qas: question: What is the main component of drying the paper?

is_impossible: yes

question: What is able to dry the paper to less than 200% moisture?
is_impossible: yes

question: What is not the main component of drying the paper?
is_impossible: yes

question: At what percentage moisture content is the papermaking process not trying to achieve in the end?
is_impossible: yes
context: Drying involves using air and/or heat to remove water from the paper sheets; in the earliest days of paper making this was done by hanging the sheets like laundry; in more modern times various forms of heated drying mechanisms are used. On the paper machine the most common is the steam heated can dryer. These can reach temperatures above 200 °F (93 °C) and are used in long sequences of more than 40 cans; where the heat produced by these can easily dry the paper to less than 6% moisture.

is_impossible: yes

question:  What is not the shiniest type of coated paper?
is_impossible: yes

question: What papers give the worst optical density?
is_impossible: yes
context: Paper at this point is uncoated. Coated paper has a thin layer of material such as calcium carbonate or china clay applied to one or both sides in order to create a surface more suitable for high-resolution halftone screens. (Uncoated papers are rarely suitable for screens above 150 lpi.) Coated or uncoated papers may have their surfaces polished by calendering. Coated papers are divided into matte, semi-matte or silk, and gloss. Gloss papers give the highest optical density in the printed image.

is_impossible: yes

question:  In the UK, the weight of what is used to classify paper for sale?
is_impossible: yes

question:  Paper rated at over 210lb is considered what type of stock?
is_impossible: yes
context: Paper is often characterized by weight. In the United States, the weight assigned to a paper is the weight of a ream, 500 sheets, of varying "basic sizes", before the paper is cut into the size it is sold to end customers. For example, a ream of 20 lb, 8.5 in × 11 in (216 mm × 279 mm) paper weighs 5 pounds, because it has been cut from a larger sheet into four pieces. In the United States, printing paper is generally 20 lb, 24 lb, or 32 lb at most. Cover stock is generally 68 lb, and 110 lb or more is considered card stock.

is_impossible: yes

question:  If paper is over 110g what is it considered as?
is_impossible: yes

question: Besides thickness, what attribute is used in stating the weight of a ream in Asia?
is_impossible: yes
context: In Europe, and other regions using the ISO 216 paper sizing system, the weight is expressed in grammes per square metre (g/m2 or usually just g) of the paper. Printing paper is generally between 60 g and 120 g. Anything heavier than 160 g is considered card. The weight of a ream therefore depends on the dimensions of the paper and its thickness.

question:  How many sheets of A1 paper would cover one single piece of AD paper?
is_impossible: yes

question: What is the lowest numbered A paper that is uncommonly used at home?
is_impossible: yes
context: The ISO 216 system used in most other countries is based on the surface area of a sheet of paper, not on a sheet's width and length. It was first adopted in Germany in 1922 and generally spread as nations adopted the metric system. The largest standard size paper is A0 (A zero), measuring one square meter (approx. 1189 × 841 mm). Two sheets of A1, placed upright side by side fit exactly into one sheet of A0 laid on its side. Similarly, two sheets of A2 fit into one sheet of A1 and so forth. Common sizes used in the office and the home are A4 and A3 (A3 is the size of two A4 sheets).

question: What is becoming less prevalent when making paper?
is_impossible: yes

question: By what are the acid fibers that make up paper hydrolyzed?
is_impossible: yes

question: What acidic salts were uncommonly found in the early types of paper produced?
is_impossible: yes

question:  Late papermakers added alum to help in what process?
is_impossible: yes

question:  How was rag paper inferior to the early types of paper made using alum?
is_impossible: yes
context: Much of the early paper made from wood pulp contained significant amounts of alum, a variety of aluminium sulfate salts that is significantly acidic. Alum was added to paper to assist in sizing, making it somewhat water resistant so that inks did not "run" or spread uncontrollably. Early papermakers did not realize that the alum they added liberally to cure almost every problem encountered in making their product would eventually be detrimental. The cellulose fibres that make up paper are hydrolyzed by acid, and the presence of alum would eventually degrade the fibres until the paper disintegrated in a process that has come to be known as "slow fire". Documents written on rag paper were significantly more stable. The use of non-acidic additives to make paper is becoming more prevalent, and the stability of these papers is less of an issue.

is_impossible: yes

question: What does paper made from sulfite pulps contain a significant amount of?
is_impossible: yes

question: What particle is associated with the greening of newspapers?
is_impossible: yes

question: A book is likely made with paper that has high amounts of what component of wood?
is_impossible: yes

question: What does lignin react to to produce the greening you see in newspapers?
is_impossible: yes
context: Paper made from mechanical pulp contains significant amounts of lignin, a major component in wood. In the presence of light and oxygen, lignin reacts to give yellow materials, which is why newsprint and other mechanical paper yellows with age. Paper made from bleached kraft or sulfite pulps does not contain significant amounts of lignin and is therefore better suited for books, documents and other applications where whiteness of the paper is essential.

qas: question: Who sponsored the tests that show that all papers are subject to acid decay?

question: What does oxalic acid produce?
is_impossible: yes

question: What does lactic acid produce?
is_impossible: yes

question: Who sponsored the tests that show that all papers are not subject to acid decay?
is_impossible: yes

question: Besides formic, acetic, and lactic acid, what type of acid does cellulose not produce?
is_impossible: yes
context: Paper made from wood pulp is not necessarily less durable than a rag paper. The ageing behavior of a paper is determined by its manufacture, not the original source of the fibres. Furthermore, tests sponsored by the Library of Congress prove that all paper is at risk of acid decay, because cellulose itself produces formic, acetic, lactic and oxalic acids.

qas: question: How many times more yield does the mechanical pulping process produce when compared to to the chemical pulping process?

question: What type of paper do mechanical pulps tend to use?
is_impossible: yes

question: How many times more yield does the mechanical pulping process produce when not compared to to the chemical pulping process?
is_impossible: yes

question: What type of process is used to produce least paper used in paperback books?
is_impossible: yes

question: What level of acid is not usually found in the paper used by book publishers?
is_impossible: yes
context: Mechanical pulping yields almost a tonne of pulp per tonne of dry wood used, which is why mechanical pulps are sometimes referred to as "high yield" pulps. With almost twice the yield as chemical pulping, mechanical pulps is often cheaper. Mass-market paperback books and newspapers tend to use mechanical papers. Book publishers tend to use acid-free paper, made from fully bleached chemical pulps for hardback and trade paperback books.

is_impossible: yes

question:  Where are dioxins expelled in our animal sources of food?
is_impossible: yes

question:  What agency nationally regulates dioxins?
is_impossible: yes
context: Conventional bleaching of wood pulp using elemental chlorine produces and releases into the environment large amounts of chlorinated organic compounds, including chlorinated dioxins. Dioxins are recognized as a persistent environmental pollutant, regulated internationally by the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants. Dioxins are highly toxic, and health effects on humans include reproductive, developmental, immune and hormonal problems. They are known to be carcinogenic. Over 90% of human exposure is through food, primarily meat, dairy, fish and shellfish, as dioxins accumulate in the food chain in the fatty tissue of animals.
