The raw material was a hardwood cold soda chemimechanical pulp (25 % poplar and 75 % eucalyptus), from Celulosa Argentina S.A. Zárate mill. The bleaching experiences where accomplished on DTPMPA pretreated pulps, following a binary mixture design with Silicate / DTPMPA relations of: 5/0; 3/0.2; 1/0.4; 0/0.6. Pretreatment conditions were: 20 minutes, 60 ºC, 0.5 % of chelant (on o.d. pulp) at 3 % of consistency. The bleaching liquor was composed of hydrogen peroxide (6 %), sodium hydroxide (1.6 %), sodium silicate and DTPMPA, in agreement with the corresponding ratios of the experimental design. Bleaching experiences were completed at 75 ºC during 2 hours. The pulps were neutralized and washed, and the handsheets for optical tests were made immediately after. Brightness and L*, a*, b* color parameters were determined. The reversion by effect of time and temperature were also determined. The results indicate that it is possible to partially replace silicate, combining 1 % of silicate and 0.4 % of DTPMPA. The presence of this chelant in the bleaching liquor produces a brighter pulp, greater brightness stability and lower peroxide consumption. The possible reasons of this behavior are discussed.
