<p>The present invention is a corn grain fiber from which corn starch has been removed, having cellulose and hemicellulose, wherein the improvement is that the cellulose and hemicellulose are dissociated as a delignified corn grain fiber. A method of delignifying the corn grain fiber, has the steps of: (a) exposing the corn grain fiber to a liquid having water and oxidizer in a non-basic solution thereby delignifying the corn grain fiber into a delignified corn grain fiber; and (b) separating the delignified corn grain fiber from the liquid. The delignified corn grain fiber is useful for adding to cellulose in papermaking. The method of the present invention may be extended to add an enzyme to the delignified corn grain fiber for making cellulose derived compounds.</p> |
