Pâte mécanique sur meule de défibreur à partir de rondins (pâte de râperie). [...] Les rondins sont pressés sur une meule abrasive animée d'un mouvement de rotation. La chaleur dégagée par le frottement meule-bois échauffe fortement la couche fibreuse près du contact, provoquant un certain ramollissement de la lignine des lamelles moyennes entre fibres. [...] Les grains de la meule arrachent des débris qui sont recueillis par les cavités situées entre ces grains. [...] La meule trempe dans une auge remplie par l'eau des rampes. Cette eau entraîne la pâte hors des cavités. 1, record 4, French, - p%C3%A2te%20m%C3%A9canique%20sur%20meule%20de%20d%C3%A9fibreur
