English term or phrase: furnish
Definition from Neenah Paper, Inc.:
The mixture of fiber and other materials that is blended in the water suspension, or slurry, from which paper or board is made; usually about 1% solid material with 99% or the balance being water.

Example sentence(s):
  • This "furnish", containing 99% water or more, is pumped into the headbox of the paper machine. From the headbox, the furnish is dispensed through a long, narrow "slice" onto the "wire", a moving continuous belt of wire or plastic mesh. bulkmsm.com - Karl Loren
  • If the process water is allowed to cycle up with contaminants and ink, the more difficult it is to produce clean, bright, good quality furnish. Getting these materials out of the mill system always improves the quality of the process water, which will further improve the production of quality recycled furnish and will reduce effluent loadings. RISI, Inc.
  • With better grades of paper, care is taken to produce a furnish that is chemically neutral (pH 7 on the acid-base scale). For a paper to have long life, it must be acid-free. Net Industries and its Licensors

sulppu


Definition from UPM-KYMMENE:
Sulppu on paperinvalmistuksessa käytettävä massaliete, joka sisältää yleensä 99 % vettä ja vain 1 % raaka-aineita (kuituja, täyteaineita).

Example sentence(s):
  • "Sekoittamalla tarvittavat raaka-aineet yhteen saadaan sulppua, jossa on 99 prosenttia vettä ja vain yksi prosentti kuituja ja täyteaineita. Paperikoneessa sulppu levitetään viiralle ohueksi rainaksi, jota vahvistetaan suodattamalla vettä pois." - UPM-KYMMENE publication  
  • "Paperia varten tehdään sulppua, jossa on tavallisesti kahta tai kolmea erilaista massaa. Sulpussa on massan lisäksi paljon vettä. Vain 0,5-1,0 prosenttia sulpusta on massaa." - Pro gradu thesis, Helsinki University  
  • "Sulpun sakeus arkinvalmistuksessa on 2–5 g/l. Jos olet laimentanut sulpun sakeuteen 2 g/l ja valmistat standardiarkkeja, tulee sinun annostella muottiin arkkia kohden 1,63 g / 2 g/l = 0,815 l." - www.tkk.fi  

Explanation:
Hyödyllinen TKK:n puunjalostajan sanasto, josta tässä yhteydessä kannattaa katsoa sekä "sulppu" että "massaliete", jotka viittaavat samaan asiaan eli paperin raaka-aineisiin:

sulppu


Definition from UPM Paper and Printing Glossary:
Sulppu on paperikoneen perälaatikosta viiralle virtaava kuitumassaa, täyteaineita ja lisäaineita sisältävä laimea liete, sakeudeltaan yleensä 0,5-1%.

Example sentence(s):
  • Sulppu koostuu kullekin paperilajille tyypillisestä seoksesta eri massalajeja sekä täyte- ja lisäaineita. - university lecture  

Explanation:
'Furnish' can also be translated as 'paperimassa'. 'Sulppu' equals 'paperimassa' but 'paperimassa' does not always equal 'sulppu'.
