abstract |
Cellulosic pulp material is dewatered and/or dried to a water content of up to 20 % by weight. With its dry matter content of up to 55 % by weight of cellulosic fibres and not less than 45 % by weight of inorganic filler particles, the product obtained finds use as such as an extender in horticultural products, as cat litter, inter alia, and, if sufficiently dry and mixed with a binder forms a moulding composition from which shaped products having useful properties and which may be biodegradable are obtainable. |
