Size Presses

 


 Online Course Description:
Surface sizing is commonly used on grades of paper and board that will be coated and/or printed. The traditional purposes of surface sizing have been to improve the sheet’s resistance to the penetration of fluids and to improve certain sheet properties. Traditionally, a starch-based sizing solution is applied to both sides of a fully dried sheet in a two-roll nip at a "size press" that is located between drying sections. This course discusses the design and functions of a size press.
