Quality Performance Using Increased Moisture Content at the Reel with Woodfree Coatings, 2005 TAPPI Coating Conference

PressWeb.jpg

The ability to maintain or improve optical and physical properties of coated paper while increasing the sheet moisture can be a benefit to paper makers. An examination of increased sheet moisture was performed in the two studies included within this report. Pigment selection was found to greatly impact the ability of the coated sheet to withstand calendering and printing with higher sheet moistures. High levels of fine narrow particle size distribution (npsd) pigments were shown to provide both glossability and an open structure, preventing blistering and maintaining print register during heat set web offset (HSWO) printing yet maintaining optical and physical coated paper properties.
