  • Samples made with the B1 and B4 basepaper coated with the "control” coating and calendered in a supercalender showed 45.72-46.48 ⁇ m (1.80-1.83mils) caliper, in line with that of commercial products made with the same basepaper and coated with the "control” coating.
  • the same samples calendered in a shoe nip calender showed significantly higher caliper (55.37-55.88 ⁇ m) (2.18-2.20 mils), which is approximately a 22% improvement.
  • the 13.61 kg (30-pounds) SNC coated samples prepared with the B1/hi-mechanical basepapers have the highest caliper, equal to or marginally better than that of a typical 18.14 kg (40 pounds) LWC product.
  • the 13.61 kg (30-pounds) SNC coated samples prepared with the precalendered papers have lower caliper than their uncalendered counterparts, but are still in a range of typical 16.33-17.24 kg (36-38 pounds) LWC products.
  • the 13.61 kg (30-pounds) SNC coated samples prepared with the B1 basepaper have caliper close to a typical 18.14 kg (40 pounds) LWC sheet.
  • the 13.61 kg (30-pounds) SNC coated samples prepared with the B4 basepaper have slightly lower caliper than those prepared with the B1 basepaper, but are comparable to a typical 17.24 kg (38 pounds) LWC sheet.
  • samples that were coated with coating B consisting of a coarse platy kaolin and a calcined kaolin, have improved caliper.
  • the 13.61 kg (30-pounds) SNC papers regardless of whether they are made with precalendered basepaper or not, have significantly improved caliper, that is, caliper is 17-27% higher than that of a supercalendered counterparts (13.61 kg) (30 pounds).
  • the main contributor of the significantly better caliper is the superior bulk preservation of the shoe calender.
  • increasing initial bulk of the paper along with the use of the shoe calender can produce the highest final caliper.
  • Figure 1 shows that the samples that were calendered using a shoe-nip calender and that were coated with the "control" coating exhibited about 22% higher caliper than their supercalendered counterparts.
  • the effect of coating formulation on bulk was relatively small with only the samples that were coated with coating B producing a marginally higher bulk.
  • basepaper on bulk was largely expected, that is, pre calendered basepaper produced a lower caliper and a higher mechanical pulp containing basepaper produced a higher bulk.
  • B1/hi-mechanical basepaper gave the highest bulk, arid followed by B1 basepaper, B4 basepaper, B1/hi-mechanical/precalendering basepaper, and then B1/precalendering basepaper,
  • Figure 2 shows that the shoe-calendered papers coated with the "control” coating exhibited about 1.1-3.1 points higher brightness than their supercalendered counterparts. Substituting the "control" coating with coating A produced 0.2-0.6 points higher brightness. Samples that were coated with coating B produced comparable brightness. Samples that were coated with coating C produced 0.3-0.5 points lower brightness. Increasing the mechanical pulp in the basepaper reduced brightness. Precalendering basepapers gave comparable or slightly better brightness than their non-precalendering counterparts. Overall, superior brightness was obtained with the samples that use B1, B1/precalendering, or B1/hi-mechanical/precalendering basepapers and that were coated with either coating A or coating B.
  • opacity is also highly dependent on the type of basepaper.
  • the uncalendered basepapers (B1 and B4) specifically those with higher mechanical pulp content, produce a higher opacity.
  • Samples coated with either coating A or coating B (both consisting of platy kaolin) have similar opacity and both give higher opacity than the samples that were coated with coating C or sample that were coated with the "control" coating.
  • the opacity of the SNC samples is significantly better than the commercial samples (13.61 kg) (30 pounds) and the industry samples (14.51-18.14 kg) (32-40 pounds).
  • Figure 3 shows that the shoe-calendered papers that were coated With the "control” coating exhibited about 2.0-2.5 points higher opacity than their supercalendered counterparts.
  • Substituting the "control" coating with either coating A or coating B on basepapers (Including B1, B1/precalendering, B1/hi-mechanical, and B1/hi-mechanical/precalendering basepapers), produced about 1 point higher opacity than samples that were coated with coating C, which produced about 1 point lower opacity.
  • Precalendering bases produced 0.1-0.8 points lower opacity than their non-precalendering counterparts.
  • Samples coated with the "control" coating that were finished in a SNC have a significantly lower gloss than those that were finished in a supercalender. In fact, the SNC samples only have 31-33% gloss, significantly lower than 13.61 kg (30 pounds) commercial samples. Further, the gloss performance of the starch-containing "control" coating is poorer than the non-starch-containing coatings A, B, and C. The only samples that were able to reach 40% gloss were those that were coated with either coating A or coating C. In general, the smoother surfaces and lower porosity of B4 and precalendered basepapers gave improved sheet gloss. Samples that were prepared with B4 basepaper and coated with coating C had the highest gloss (50%).
  • Figure 4 shows that the shoe-calendered papers coated with the "control” coating exhibited about 15-20 points lower paper gloss than their supercalendered counterparts. Substituting the "control" coating with coating A produced about 9-12 point higher paper gloss; substituting with coating B, produced about 2-5 points higher paper gloss; and substituting with coating C, produced about 12-17 points higher paper gloss. Precalendering produced 2-5 points higher sheet gloss. Overall, papers coated with coating C have higher gloss than those coated with coating A, and papers coated with coating B have the lowest paper gloss.
  • Samples that were coated with the "control" coating, and that were finished in a SNC have poorer Parker Print Surf (PPS), or rougher surfaces, than those that were finished in a supercalender.
  • PPS Parker Print Surf
  • the PPS performance is not only depending on calendering method, but also on types of basepaper and coating. For example, a rougher basepaper like the B1 basepaper, gives poorer PPS than a smoother basepaper like the B4 paperpaer. For the same reason, precalendering which improved the smoothness of the basepaper also improves the PPS compared to uncalendered basepapers.
  • the coatings A and B consisting of platy kaolin, give better PPS than coating C consisting of fine-engineered kaolin.
  • SNC samples give poorer PPS than commercial samples (13.61 kg) (30 pounds) as well as average industry samples (14.51-18.14 kg) (32-40 pounds).
  • Figure 5 shows that the shoe-calendered papers coated with the "control” coating exhibited about 0.1-0.9 points higher PPS than their supercalendered counter-parts.
  • Substituting the "control" coating with coating A reduced PPS by about 0.1-0.6 points.
  • Substituting with coating B reduced PPS by about 0.1-0.4 points.
  • Substituting the "control” coating with coating C gave 0.2-0.3 points higher PPS. Precalendering reduced PPS by 0.1-0.5 points.
  • All basepapers coated with either coating A or coating B gave commercially acceptable PPS, that is, 1.6-1.9 ⁇ m (microns).
  • the print gloss is measured on a four-color black area using a RIT web offset press print signature.
  • SNC samples In general exhibit comparable or better print gloss than 13.61 kg (30 pounds) commercial sheets. Among all SNC samples, the samples that were prepared with the B4 basepaper and were coated with coating A exhibited the highest print gloss.
  • the shoe-calendered papers coated with the "control” coating exhibited about 7 points lower print gloss than their supercalendered counterparts. Substituting the "control" coating with coating A gave 10-12 points higher print gloss; 4-8 points higher with coating B; and 4-10 points higher with the coating C. Precalendering produced 1-5 points higher print gloss. Overall, the shoe-calendered papers that are coated with either coating A, B, or C gave at least comparable print gloss to commercial sheets.
