Additional field(s): Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng
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

pasta papelera - de papel


Definition from own experience or research:
Combinación de materias primas que componen el papel: fibra celulósica y otros aditivos (cargas de relleno, aglutinantes, colorantes, etc.) suspendidos en agua. Forman una lechada con la que se alimenta la máquina papelera.

Example sentence(s):
  • Cabeza de máquina Se encarga de expulsar la pasta de papel en una fina capa sobre la tela de la máquina de papel. - WikiPedia  
  • Productos de pasta papelera facilmente des brados y metodo para su fabricacion. La invencion es un producto de pasta papelera de madera modi cado especialmente util para laproduccion de - esPatentes  
  • Básicamente en el procedimiento de fabricación los elementos constituyentes se hallan, primeramente, en suspensión acuosa en la pasta de papel, pero al ser esparcida sobre una fina tela metálica, el agua se escurre a través de las mallas de la misma y queda una capa delgada de materias húmedas que, una vez separada de la tela y secada, constituye el papel. Para fabricar el papel primero es necesario tratar esta madera hasta lograr una pasta, que se denomina pasta de papel, dependiendo el método que se utilice para obtenerla, se consigue la pasta química o la pasta mecánica. - www.tecno2dcv.com.ar  

Explanation:
Aunque mucha gente lo traduce por "pulpa de papel", no creo que sea lo correcto, pues en inglés "pulp" es la pasta compuesta únicamente por fibras de celulosa, sin el resto de aditivos que componen el papel.
