Definitions

• the present invention relates to a coated fine paper writing, packaging and / or printing, in particular offset, and its method of preparation.
• papers can be distinguished by their use, each use corresponding to customers having a particular type of printer and corresponding to a specific market.
• a customer of the paper industry therefore chooses among the various papers offered one that is printable with the type of printer he wants to use and that best meets his needs in terms of quality and cost.
• printer or printing There are several types of printer or printing including desk top inkjet, continuous inkjet, black-white offset (eg for newspaper printing), offset 4 color (four-color process), digital offset, thermal offset, electrophotography (photocopier, laser printer), rotogravure, screen printing, and sublimation.
• inks used for printing a paper depend on the type of printing.
• Inks for inkjet printing include volatile solvents or water as the vehicle, while inks for offset printing use vegetable oils or petroleum distillates as the vehicle.
• coated paper For 4-color offset printing, two types of paper can be used: coated paper and fine paper.
• a coated paper comprises a conventional paper on which is deposited a layer comprising a binder and pigments. The fibers of the paper are then masked by the layer so that they are no longer visible.
• the paper serves only as a support for the layer that is designed to give the coated paper a very good quality printing. The coated paper of the coated paper is therefore not visible in the final product and may be of relatively low quality.
• a coated paper has a low value hand (generally less than 1.04 cm 3 / g, and the pulp used for its manufacture comprises cellulosic fibers of more or less good quality, a binder, and a relatively large amount of fillers (generally greater than 15% by dry weight relative to the total dry weight of the paper).
• the pigmented layer is generally deposited on the support paper at a rate of 18 to 35 g / m 2 per side, by a smoothing coating technique such as the blade, which gives the coated paper a dish which masks the imperfections of the paper such as that the epair and the roughness brought by the fibrous mat of the support paper.
• the production of a coated paper is made at low cost with machines of several meters in width ranging from sheet speeds to winding typically greater than 1000m / min.
• the paper first receives a primer which is a first generally pigmented coating layer which is deposited in line at a rate of a few g / m 2 , receives the aforementioned pigmented layer defining the printability of the final product, and is calendered into end of line.
• a fine paper is a precious or quality paper which differs from a conventional paper or support used for the preparation of a coated paper, in particular by its hand, the composition of the paper pulp which is used for its manufacture, and its manufacturing cost which is higher. Fine paper is generally marked or naturally textured due to the manufacturing process employed and / or by a treatment applied to it, such as graining.
• a fine paper has a hand greater than or equal to 1.10 3 / g, and the paper pulp which is used for its manufacture comprises good quality cellulosic fibers, a binder, and a low proportion of fillers and / or adjuvants, such as starch.
• An important characteristic of a thin paper is its printability, and in particular the drying time of the inks used for its printing. When a thin paper is printed for example by an offset printing process, it is important that the drying time of the inks used is relatively short so that the inks deposited on the front of a thin paper do not stain by the reverse side. another thin paper when stacked on top of one another, or that same thin paper when it is rolled up on itself.
• Fine papers used in 4-color offset printing are mostly untreated.
• the inks are deposited directly on the fibers which are only coated with usual adjuvants.
• the paper has no pigments on the surface and the fibers of the paper are apparent and are clearly distinguishable after printing.
• the eucalyptus fibers of a fine paper are visible to the naked eye by forming small glossy dots on the surface of the fine paper.
• the visible textured appearance of the fine paper gives a relief to the printed surface and results in a final impression after printing of the very aesthetic fine paper, which is appreciated by the customers.
• Another significant difference between a thin paper and a coated paper is that when a coated paper has a certain surface roughness, it is due to the layer deposited on the paper, while the surface roughness of a paper end is mainly due to its own texture.
• a thin paper is indeed in general textured or marked, its texture may be natural and / or forced, that is to say in this case obtained by a graining process or marking or by a similar process.
• the graining of a thin paper can be carried out during the manufacture of the paper (for example by means of, for example, an adequate drip cloth of the paper pulp or embossing or marking rolls) or after it.
• a grained fine paper comprises recessed and / or raised patterns on at least one of its faces, giving for example to the final product after printing textures such as curved lines or geometric figures.
• a coated paper has a smooth surface that does not show the fibrous mat or a marking of the support by an element of the manufacturing process.
• the fine paper can be laid and include shepherds made for example by means of a watermarking roll.
• the fine papers of the current art suffer from a relatively low print quality, in particular because the drying time of the inks used is very long.
• the fibers of the fine paper do not fix enough printing inks and therefore do not allow the inks to dry quickly.
• the dishes are not uniform because they depend on the fibrous mat of fine paper which, by its very structure, is not uniform.
• a coating composition comprising pigments and a binder is then deposited at a rate of 8 to 16 g / m 2 on one side of the thin paper to improve its printability.
• coating compositions used in the present art are unsatisfactory in particular because they modify the properties of fine papers coated with these compositions, and in particular their hand or mechanical strength and their feel.
• the mechanical strength of paper is an important feature for thin paper.
• the finer the fine paper the greater the mechanical strength, and the higher the quality of the fine paper felt by a customer holding the paper in his hands.
• Touch is also an important feature of thin paper. Indeed, the purpose of a thin paper is usually to be held by the hands of a client to convey information in written form or printed or carry an object as part of a package. By physical contact with the client's hands, sensory information is added to the written message or to the apprehension of the packaged object, to form a global perception of the object.
• a thin paper usually made of short fibers of cellulose, has the particularity of being soft to the touch.
• a fine paper made of cotton fibers is also very soft. This softness may vary somewhat depending on the fibrous composition of the paper, the amount of fillers used in the paper and the final roughness of the paper. Nevertheless, fine papers have the particularity of presenting a soft surface particularly pleasant to the touch.
• fine paper coated with a pigment composition of the present art has a softer (rougher) feel than the same fine paper before coating.
• the removal, even in small quantities, of a coating composition of the current technique on a thin paper modifies the feel of this paper, which becomes rougher, in particular because of the presence of the pigments in the coating composition.
• the present invention overcomes this problem by means of a coating composition for fine paper which gives this paper a softness close to that of the paper before coating. It also aims to improve the printability of a thin paper, especially offset printing, while preserving its texture.
• a thin paper for writing, packaging and / or printing, in particular offset comprising a fibrous mat having a hand greater than or equal to 1.10 cm 3 / g and at least one layer whose dry deposit on one or each face of the fibrous mat is between 3 and 10 g / m 2 and which comprises:

These patterns generally have dimensions of at least several tens of microns.

• the coated fine paper has an appearance, a touch and a brightness close to those of the original fibrous mat.
• the fine paper according to the invention has good printing uniformity (due to the absence of marbling or "mottling").
• the presence of inorganic pigments in the coating composition makes it possible to improve the printability of the fine paper, notably by accelerating the drying time of the inks used during printing.
