Latex Applications in Paper Coating

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSE,volume 335))

Abstract

The main objectives of coating papers and paperboards are to improve their aesthetic appearance and printability. Coatings impart smoothness, gloss, brightness, and opacity to the base sheets for improved appearance, and provide them with enhanced printability which requires resistance to ink film-splitting forces, smoothness, ink holdout and gloss, sharp halftone reproduction, etc. The properties and printability of coated papers are affected by the base sheets (fiber types, sheet formation, internal sizing, and base weight), coating materials (pigment types, binder types, rheology modifiers, water-retention aids, lubricants, defoamers, etc.), coating formulations (ratios of coating components, solids and pH’s), coating process (coating application types and speed), coat weights, drying conditions (dryer types, drying temperature, drying time, and final moisture level), etc. In other words, many factors affect the properties and printability of coated papers, and they are inter-dependent with each other.
