Определение и Значение "papermaking"

What is "papermaking"?

Papermaking is the process of creating paper from raw materials. It starts by breaking down fibers, like wood or recycled paper, and mixing them with water to make a thick, pulpy mixture. This mixture is spread onto a screen or mold to form sheets. The sheets are then pressed to remove excess water and dried to create paper. This technique allows for the production of different types of paper, ranging from smooth and fine to textured and handmade, and is used for a variety of purposes including art and everyday writing.
