The negative effects of metal ions were addressed relative to the whiteness characteristic of chemomechanical pulp samples prepared. Proper solutions were considered to mitigate this adverse effect. The chemomechanical pulp samples were supplied in an unbleached form. The samples were wetted using ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) chelating agent, and then each of the samples was wetted with EDTA after drying with solutions containing the transitional metal ions. The results showed that the greatest whiteness reduction resulted from Fe2+ ions, whereas the smallest effect resulted from Al3+ ions. Wetting of the samples in various concentrations of the chelating agent (EDTA) had an optimum value in improving the whiteness characteristic of the paper. Thereafter, no change was created in whiteness improvement and brightness stability by increasing the concentration of EDTA. Increasing the aging time reduced the whiteness characteristic of the chemomechanical pulp.
