**Abstract**
 In this study, chemical degumming was applied to corn husks, and the optimal degumming procedure and pretreatment method were determined. Through orthogonal experiments, it was determined the optimal pretreatment parameters are: H2O2 concentration of 8 g/L, urea concentration of 8 g/L, pretreatment temperature of 20 deg C and pretreatment time of 30 min. The effectiveness of this combination of parameters was validated by its resultant glial removal rate of 85.32%. 17 Refs.
