Abstract
Paper originated in China in 105 AD. It was produced from flax and hemp, or the bark fibers of certain trees. Paper sheets are composed of small cellulosic fibers held together by secondary (hydrogen) bonds; the sheets are formed by passing a dilute suspension through a screen. The word ‘paper’ comes from the Egyptian word papyrus: a sheet made by pressing together strips of the reedCyperus papyrus.Nevertheless, papyrus sheets are not considered to be paper because the fibers were not separated first before being reformed into sheets (Baum,et al., 1982).
