In general, it would be called bond paper. Individual variations would be further described by stating the size, weight, such as 20 lb., color, finish, etc.

Paper is a vegetable fiber that uses the cellulose (the cell structure in plants) to form a writing surface.

For an explantion of how it is done start here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper#Papermaking

According to Wikipeida: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper
"Paper is thin material used for writing upon, printing upon or packaging, produced by the amalgamation of fibres, typically vegetable fibers composed of cellulose, which are subsequently held together by hydrogen bonding. While the fibres used are usually natural in origin, a wide variety of synthetic fibres, such as polypropylene and polyethylene, may be incorporated into paper as a way of imparting desirable physical properties. The most common source of these kinds of fibres is wood pulp from pulpwood trees. Vegetable fibre materials such as cotton, hemp, linen, and rice are also used."
