Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to a paper coating composition to be used for the production of coated papers and, more specifically, to an aqueous coating composition to be applied over the surface of a paper for improving its surface properties such as surface smoothness, gloss and printability.
  • the present invention is also directed to a coated paper having a surface coated layer obtained from the above coating composition.
  • DE-A-3603392 discloses the use of polymers of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid as milling aids and dispersants for eg white pigments such of as titanium dioxide and kaolin for producing aqueous pigment slurries for paper-making compositions.
  • One known coating composition includes a white pigment such as kaolin, a binder, a latex and a dispersing agent.
  • a white pigment such as kaolin
  • a binder such as kaolin
  • a latex such as kaolin
  • a dispersing agent such as sodium alginate or carboxymethylcellulose.
  • an aqueous coating composition comprising:
  • the present invention provides a coated paper obtained by coating the above composition over the surface of a paper.
  • the paper coating composition according to the present invention is characterized by the inclusion of a specific additive, i.e. an acrylic acid/methacrylic acid copolymer and/or a copolymer (a) acrylic acid or methacrylic acid and (b) an alkyl acrylate or alkyl methacrylate, together with glycerin.
  • a specific additive i.e. an acrylic acid/methacrylic acid copolymer and/or a copolymer (a) acrylic acid or methacrylic acid and (b) an alkyl acrylate or alkyl methacrylate, together with glycerin.
  • the alkyl group of the monomer (b), i.e. alkyl acrylate or methacrylate has 2-4 carbon atoms.
  • the additive preferably has an average molecular weight of 5,000 to 500,000. It is important that the additive should be present in an amount of 0.001 to 2 %, preferably 0.01 to 1 % based on the weight of the white

  • the use of the specific copolymer additive has the effect of imparting excellent water-retentivity, viscosity and fluidity properties to the composition and these properties are further improved by the use in conjunction with the copolymer additive of the polyol, whereby the coating composition of the present invention can give coated paper having excellent properties such as printability and gloss.
  • the glycerin is preferably used in an amount of 1-20%, more preferably 5-15% based on the weight of the copolymer.

  • the coating composition according to the present invention is suitably applied over one or both sides of a paper such as a wood-free paper, a ground wood paper or a paper board to give a coated paper.
  • Coating may be effected in a manner known per se using, for example, a blade coater, a roll coater, an air knife coater or a short dwell coater.
  • a coating liquid having the following composition was prepared:
  • a coating liquid was obtained by replacing the additive of Comparative Example 1 with a methacrylic acid/butyl acrylate copolymer (manufactured by Rohm & Haas, referred to as Copolymer B).
  • a coating liquid was obtained by replacing the additive of Comparative Example 1 with a mixture of 10 parts by weight of the methacrylic acid/ethyl acrylate copolymer (Copolymer A) with 1 part by weight of glycerin.

  • a coating liquid was obtained by replacing the additive of Comparative Example 1 with water.
  • Fluidity (viscosity of the coating composition) / (viscosity of the aqueous phase of the coating composition * ) *: The composition is first separated into a liquid (aqueous) phase and a solid phase by centrifugation. Then, the viscosity of the liquid phase is measured.
  • Each of the above coating liquids was applied over one side of a paper having a basis weight of 60 g/m 2 and then dried to obtain a coated paper having a basis weight of 75 g/m 2 .
  • coated papers were tested for their gloss, brightness, smoothness and resistance to picking in the following manner:
  • Dry pick and wet pick were measured using a printability tester (RI tester manufactured by Akira Seisakusho K.K.) and evaluated in terms of 5-level rating (greater, the better).
