New or Revised Standards, TIPs, and Useful Methods
Check here the list of recently published TAPPI Technical Information Papers (TIPs): TIP 0408-01 Checklist For a Properly Planned Project (Revised) We extend our special appreciation to the following volunteers who served as Working Group Chairs in the recently published reviews of TAPPI TIPs: Margaret Gorog – WGC for TIP 0408-01 Special note: Documents appearing in the TAPPI online version of the Standards and TIPs are updated once a month (usually around the 30th). It is possible that there is a delay between the publication announcement and the posting online. If you are a subscriber to the online access to Standards and TIPs and you are in a hurry for new documents that have not yet been posted, you can send a request for TIPs to tip@tappi.org or for Standards to standards@tappi.org.

T 234 cm-12 Coarseness of pulp fibers (November 4, 2023) The TAPPI Standards regulations require public review of standards that are up for ballot. Send a message to standards@tappi.org if you want to request a copy of the draft in ballot. If you would like to participate in the SSIGs that review and vote on the Standards, please contact TAPPI Standards Department at standards@tappi.org. TIPs under review
Listed below are TAPPI TIPs that were recently submitted to the Working Group for review. The date when the Work Item was opened is shown for each TIP, as well as the Subject Category under which the TIP is assigned and the Working Group Chair's (WGC) name. The target completion date for the review of each TIP is one year after the opening of the Work Item. Listed below are TAPPI TIPs that were recently submitted to the Working Group for review.

General Announcements
Propose a New Standard or Technical Information Paper (TIP) Getting started is easy. Do you have a general idea for a Standard, or have you made significant progress in developing a draft? If you have an idea for a Standard, please complete the New Idea Submission form. TAPPI will review your idea and identify an appropriate committee or group to work on your suggestion. If you have developed a draft, send an initial draft to standards@tappi.org. TAPPI Standards Manager will guide you through the appropriate process to finalize and approve the new document. STAR of the Month
This TIP provides a review of the theory of thermocompressor operation as well as some practical guidelines and common mistakes on typical applications.This TIP provides a review of the theory of thermocompressor operation as well as some practical guidelines and common mistakes on typical applications. Thermocompressors are widely used in paper machine steam and condensate systems. A thermocompressor is a jet ejector that uses high-pressure motive steam to recompress lower pressure steam. Typical applications include re- circulating blowthrough steam in a group of dryers or a Yankee cylinder, or boosting low-pressure steam for use in a system requiring higher operating pressures. Please note that it is essential to establish proper design conditions, since thermocompressors are custom built for each application. An incorrectly designed unit can be unstable, uncontrollable, and waste significant amounts of steam. The intention of this TIP is not to provide an engineering guideline for detailed design of thermocompressors or thermocompressor systems – this is a task that should be reserved for companies or individuals with specialized tools and expertise in these applications – but rather to provide an overview of thermocompressor application and operation.

SSIG Members Needed
The Standard-Specific Interest Groups (SSIGs) for the following Standards need additional members. These groups may or may not have ballots currently open. All Standard-Specific Interest Groups (SSIG) require a minimum of 10 members in order to ballot and vote on a draft of a method. The following test methods do not have the required minimum number of members to initiate a ballot: T 267 cm-15 Compression wood identification in pulpwood Participating in a SSIG is free and open to anyone interested. Join now! If no progress is made on balancing these SSIGs, then the respective methods may be considered for withdrawal at the next Q&SMC meeting. If you have an interest in becoming a member of these SSIGs please contact standards@tappi.org U.S. TAG to ISO TC 6
The plenary meetings hosted by ISO are on the following dates: ISO TC6/SC2 - October 31, 2023 – November 1, 2023 (Virtual) Location: Virtual ISO TC6 - November 7, 2023 – November 8, 2023 (Virtual) Location: Virtual If you would like to know more or join the U.S. TAG to ISO TC 6, please write to isotc6@tappi.org. Did You Know
... that to participate in the balloting process for TAPPI Standards you must sign up for the Standard-Specific Interest Groups (SSIGs)? Drafts are available for anyone to review, but to vote and comment you must be a member of the SSIG. Every Standard has its own SSIG, meaning you must register separately for each Standard you're interested in. You can access links to all the SSIGs organized by subject category on the Join SSIGs webpage for Standards. Selecting the Subject Category if interest will lead you to the corresponding SSIGs to participate in. Acronyms You May Need to Know
For details on these commonly used acronyms in the development of TAPPI Standards and TIPs, please see the Standards Guidelines and the TIP Guidelines, or send your questions to standards@tappi.org. TIP = Technical Information Paper Searching and Ordering TAPPI Standards, TIPs, and Useful Methods
