Abstract
The understanding of interaction of pulp fibers with water is of key importance when dealing with paper formation
process. The swelling ability and the swelling kinetics of three kraft pulps in the form of sheets were investigated. The
swelling ability of pulps was evaluated by determining the WRV (water retention value). The swelling kinetics was
determined by a new device measuring the kinetic characteristic of interaction between cellulose fibers and swelling
media. The device was provided with a modified monitoring unit; the paper describes the opportunities offered by this
measuring unit. We assumed the linear dependence of WRV and the results acquired by kinetic measurements. This
assumption was confirmed.
