Abstract

A method of producing mechanical and chemi-mechanical pulp with a yield above 85 % from lignocellulose-containing material for the manufacture of paper or board products. The material is subjected to mechanical processing in at least two steps. The material at its feed into the first step has a temperature below the softening temperature of lignin. When the material is fed into at least one subsequent processing step, it shall have a temperature above the softening temperature of lignin.
