Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、顔料塗工層を設けた印刷用塗工紙に関し、更に詳しくは、低密度であるにも関わらず、手触り感がよく、印刷適性に優れた嵩高塗工紙に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
高品質の印刷物を得るために、顔料塗工を施した顔料塗工印刷用紙が従来から広く利用されている。この顔料塗工印刷用紙は、原紙の表面にある凹凸を顔料の微細構造で被覆したもので、さらにカレンダー処理により平滑性を高められたものは印刷したときにインキ発色性や網点の再現性には優れている。しかし、一方で、密度が高く、凹凸感が乏しく、柔らかさなどの手触り感などが非塗工紙とは大きく異なっている。
【0003】
このようななかで、非塗工紙の手触り感、凹凸感、嵩などを保ちながら、印刷したときにはインキ発色性、網点の再現性が優れた印刷用紙が求められるようになっている。
そのために、原紙の凹凸感を損なわない範囲で原紙上に顔料塗工層を設けることが行われるが、凹凸感を重視すると印刷適性が不十分となり、印刷適正を重視すると原紙の凹凸感がなくなるということで非塗工紙の風合いと印刷適正を両立することは困難なことであった。さらに、最近はチラシ、カタログ、パンフレット、ダイレクトメールなどの商業印刷での印刷物のビジュアル化、カラー化が、また電子機器の普及により本体及びソフトの取り扱い説明書のカラー印刷が進み、紙には高い印刷適性が要求される反面、コスト削減により、用紙にはさらに軽量化が求められるようになった。
【0004】
紙の軽量化手段としては、原紙の減斤、塗工量の減量が考えられるが、原紙を単に減斤したのでは紙の不透明度が下がるため、それを補うために塗工層量が増え、結果的に有効な軽量化にはつながらない。不透明度低下を防ぐためには、シリカ、ホワイトカーボン等の比表面積の大きな填料や二酸化チタンのような屈折率の高い填料を使用することも考えられるが、軽量化にはつながらない。また、使用するパルプの濾水度を高くすることも考えられるが、紙層構造がポーラスになって透気度、平滑度が低下する結果、顔料塗工液が染み込みすぎて原紙の被覆性が悪くなり、印刷適性が低下するし、主に密度も高くなるため有効とはいえない。他には、高温でのカレンダー処理も手法の一つとして考えられるが、効果が不十分である。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、顔料塗工層を設けた後も非塗工紙の風合いを有し、低密度であるにもかかわらず印刷適性に優れた嵩高塗工紙を提供するものである。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らは、上記課題を解決するために鋭意検討した結果、特定のパルプを配合した原紙を使用し、特定の顔料を配合した顔料塗工層を設けることにより、非塗工紙の風合いを有し、印刷適性に優れた嵩高塗工紙を完成させた。本発明は、以下の各発明を包含する。
【0007】
(1)原紙に広葉樹から製造されるBCTMPと針葉樹から製造されるBCTMPと界面活性剤を含有し、該原紙の少なくとも片面にレーザー回折式測定法による平均粒径が1.5〜6.0μmでかつ沈降式測定法による平均粒子径が0.7〜2.0μmであり、アスペクト比20以上で、白色度88以上であるデラミネーテッドカオリンを含有する塗工層を有し、密度0.9g/m未満、圧縮率1.5以上であることを特徴とする嵩高塗工紙。
【0008】
(2)広葉樹から製造されるBCTMPと針葉樹から製造されるBCTMPは質量比で70:30〜95:5の割合で混合されており、該BCTMP混合物は原紙を構成する全パルプに対して10〜40質量%の割合で配合されていることを特徴とする(1)項記載の嵩高塗工紙。
(3)前記広葉樹から製造されるBCTMPと針葉樹から製造されるBCTMPの叩解度は、カナダ標準濾水度(CSF)で130〜180mlである(1)項又は(2)項に記載の嵩高塗工紙。
【0009】
(4)前記広葉樹はアスペン(Populus tremla)である(1)項〜(3)項のいずれか1項に記載の嵩高塗工紙。
(5)前記界面活性剤は平滑化及び柔軟化の効果がある界面活性剤であり、原紙中0.2〜1.0質量%含まれていることを特徴とする(1)項〜(4)項のいずれか1項に記載の嵩高塗工紙。
(6)白色度が80%以上で、かつ不透明度が80%以上であることを特徴とする(1)〜(5)項のいずれか1項に記載の嵩高塗工紙。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の嵩高塗工紙は、原紙に広葉樹から製造されるBCTMPと針葉樹から製造されるBCTMPを含有する。BCTMPとはBleached Chemithermomechanical Pulpの略で、短時間、低濃度の薬品に浸した後にTMP処理したパルプのことである。
一般的に使用されているTMP(thermomechanical pulp)は針葉樹から製造されており、製造費用が安い、繊維自体嵩高でクッション性が高い、光散乱性に富んでいるため不透明度が高いなどの利点がある反面、白色度が低く、強度が弱く、退色性も悪いといわれており、印刷用紙にした場合、印刷光沢度、インキセット性、階調再現性に影響を及ぼし、印刷工程では断紙、オフ輪でのブリスターにも影響があっため、使用には制限があった。
【0011】
本発明で使用するBCTMPは一般のTMPに比べて長繊維含有量が多く、シャイブが少なく、繊維が柔軟であり、裂断長、破裂強度が高く、白色度が高い。特に広葉樹から製造されるBCTMPは繊維膜厚が薄く、繊維長が短いため針葉樹から製造されるBCTMPに比べて嵩は劣るが、印刷適性、平滑性、インク受理性で優れている。広葉樹から製造されるBCTMPは針葉樹から製造されるBCTMPに比べて漂白性、紙にしたときの平滑性に優れる。
【0012】
なかでも、アスペンから製造されるBCTMPはアスペン繊維が繊維膜が薄く、小さい繊維径であるためか薬品浸透性がよく、漂白性に優れるため、強度、白色度が高い。またアスペンから製造されたパルプはリグニン含有量が少ないため退色性にも優れる。
本発明では、広葉樹から製造されるBCTMP、特にアスペンから製造されるBCTMPに針葉樹から製造されるBCTMPを質量比で70:30〜95:5の比率で混合したものを含有させることが好ましい。
【0013】
針葉樹BCTMPの原料としては、ラジアータパイン、バルサムファー、スプルース、ウエスタンヘムロック等があり、なかでもスプルースから製造されるBCTMPは繊維が長く、白色度が高く、嵩高性には効果がある。嵩高性と紙にしたときの表面性の両者のバランスをとるためには、広葉樹から製造されるBCTMPと針葉樹から製造されるBCTMPを上記の範囲で混合したものを配合することが好ましい。上記範囲で混合されたBCTMPを原紙を構成するパルプの10〜40質量%の範囲で含有させることにより、嵩、強度、風合い、印刷適性を満足させることが可能になる。10質量%未満では嵩高性に対して効果が見られず、40質量%を超えて配合すると強度、褪色性に影響を与えるため好ましくない。また、この混合されたBCTMPはカナダ標準ろ水度(CSF)で130〜180mlまで叩解したものが表面平滑性が高くなるため好ましい。中でもチップの状態から広葉樹と針葉樹を混合してNaOH、NaSO、H、DTPA(C142310)、MgSO等で処理され、Hで漂白されたものが白色度、、強度が高く、柔軟であるため好ましい。
【0014】
本発明の嵩高塗工紙は、柔軟化、平滑化効果のある界面活性剤を原紙中に0.2〜1.0質量%含有する。原紙のパルプに柔軟化、平滑化の効果のある界面活性剤としては、例えば、鉱油、高級アルコール、ポリエチレングリコール型非イオン界面活性剤、多価アルコール型非イオン界面活性剤、カチオン性界面活性剤等が挙げられ、これらの界面活性剤を含有させることにより、手ざわり感がよく、さらに嵩高な原紙を製造することが可能になる。このような界面活性剤はパルプ同士の水素結合を阻害するため紙の密度が高くなることを押さえる働きとともに平滑性にも効果がある。中でも、多価アルコールと脂肪酸のエステル化合物、高級アルコール、多価アルコールと脂肪酸のエステル化合物であってオキシアルキレン基を有するものが特に好ましい。これらは原紙中の含有量が0.2質量%未満では嵩を出す効果がなく、1.0質量%を超えて含有させても効果が頭打ちであるだけでなく、抄紙系内を汚し、強度を低下させるので好ましくない。
【0015】
本発明の嵩高塗工紙は、前記広葉樹及び針葉樹から製造されたBCTMPの他、高白DIPを配合されていることが好ましい。この場合のDIPは白色度70%以上に漂白されたものが好ましい。
強度の低下を招かないFAS(Formamidine sulfinic acid)で漂白されたDIP(Deinked pulp)が好ましく、全パルプ中に5〜50質量%の範囲が好ましい。50質量%を超えて配合することは印刷適性、強度の面で好ましくない。その他のパルプとしてはGP(Ground pulp)、KP(Kraft pulp)を目的により適宜配合する。GPは嵩高性、不透明度では効果があるが強度が弱く、リグニンの含有量が多いために褪色性や耐候性が悪いので多量に配合することは好ましくない。
【0016】
本発明の嵩高塗工紙における原紙は一般的な抄紙方法で抄紙される、たとえば、トップワイヤーを含む長網抄紙機、丸網抄紙機、また両者の併用抄紙機等により酸性抄紙、中性抄紙、アルカリ性抄紙される。必要に応じて、内添填料が添加されるが、填料としては特に制限はなく、一般的な填料が使用される。たとえば、炭酸カルシウム、二酸化チタン、タルク、カオリン、シリカなどの無機填料、プラスチックピグメントのような有機填料などのうち不透明度、嵩高性を妨げないものであればよい。
【0017】
さらに、嵩高性、印刷適性、風合いを損なわないものであれば各種内添サイズ剤、紙力増強剤、濾水性向上剤、歩留り向上剤などを適宜選択して添加してもよい。
また、抄紙後、さらにサイズプレス、ゲートロールコータ、プレメタリングサイズプレス等を使用してデンプン、PVAなどを予備塗工してもよい。
【0018】
本発明の嵩高塗工紙は、塗工層にレーザー回折式測定法による平均粒径が1.5〜6.0μm、好ましくは2.0〜5.0μmでかつ沈降式測定法による平均粒子径が0.7〜2.0μm、好ましくは0.9〜1.5μmで、白色度88以上であり、好ましくは粒径がそろっている薄六角板状のデラミネーテッドカオリン(以下、デラミカオリンと略す。)を含有する。
デラミカオリンは薄六角板状であり、塗工層表面に並んで平滑性を高める。また、保水性もよいため塗工量を少なくすることが可能になる。デラミカオリンは、レーザー回折式測定法による平均粒径が1.5μm未満で、沈降式測定法による平均粒子径が0.7μm未満である場合、印刷適性は向上するが密度がでないし、またレーザー回折式測定法による平均粒径が6.0μmを超え、かつ沈降式測定法による平均粒子径が2.0μmを超えて大きくなると印刷適性(たとえば、印刷光沢度)が悪くなるため好ましくない。
また、デラミカオリンの粒径がそろっていないと嵩高性と平滑性に好ましくない影響がでる。
【0019】
本発明の嵩高塗工紙の塗工層に使用されるデラミカオリンは、全顔料中に30質量%以上配合されていることが好ましい。30質量%未満では塗工層の保水度が低下し、不透明度も低下するため好ましくない。
本発明の嵩高塗工紙の塗工層には、デラミカオリン以外に、重質炭酸カルシウム、軽質炭酸カルシウムなどの炭酸カルシウム、酸化チタン、サチンホワイト、硫酸バリウム、硫酸バリウム、硫酸カルシウム等の無機顔料やプラスチックピグメントをはじめとする有機顔料を使用することも可能である。
【0020】
塗工層の接着剤としては特に制限はなく、たとえばスチレン・ブタジエン系、スチレン・アクリル系、エチレン・酢酸ビニル系、ブタジエン・メチルメタクリレート系、酢酸ビニル・ブチルアクリレート系等の各種共重合体やポリビニルアルコール(PVA)・無水マレイン酸共重合体、アクリル酸・メチルメタクリレート系共重合体等の合成系接着剤、カゼイン、大豆蛋白、合成蛋白等の蛋白質類、酸化澱粉、陽性澱粉、尿素リン酸エステル化澱粉等の澱粉類、カルボキシメチルセルロース、ヒドロキシメチルセルロース、ヒドロキシエチルセルロース等のセルロース誘導体等を単体で、あるいは混合して用いられる。これらの接着剤は顔料100質量部当たり5〜50質量部、より好ましくは5〜30質量部の範囲で使用する。また必要に応じて、pH調整剤として苛性ソーダ、アンモニア等が使用可能で、その他分散剤、増粘剤、保水剤、消泡剤、耐水化剤、染料等を添加することができる。
【0021】
本発明の嵩高塗工紙の塗工層の形成に使用される塗料は、一般的に使用される塗工装置により本発明の原紙の片面或いは両面に塗工される。一般的な塗工装置としてはバーコータ、ロールコータ、リバースロールコータ、ブレードコータ、エアナイフコータ、ロッドコータ、ビルブレードコータ、ゲートロールコータ、カーテンコータ、ダイスロットコータ、グラビアコータ、チャンプレックスコータ、サイズプレスコータ等が挙げられる。塗工量は所望の特性に応じて適宜選択されるが、塗工紙全体の密度と印刷適性を考えると6〜15g/mが適当な範囲であり、6g/m未満では十分な被覆性と印刷光沢度が得られないだけでなく、白色度、不透明度も不十分である。
【0022】
塗工後の仕上げ工程(平滑化)においては、不透明度と嵩高性を維持するためにカレンダー処理は行わないか極力軽減することが好ましい。本発明の嵩高塗工紙を構成する原紙と塗工層を採用することにより、平滑化処理工程を軽減するか又は行わなくても優れた印刷適性をもった嵩高で手触り感のよい嵩高塗工紙を得ることが可能となった。
【0023】
本発明の嵩高塗工紙は、塗工紙としての密度が0.9g/m未満で圧縮率が1.5以上である。圧縮率が1.5以上であるということは弾力性があるということで、印刷したときのインキの転移、発色性等の印刷適性に影響を及ぼす。
インキの転移には紙表面の平滑性も大きな要因ではあるが、インキを転写するときに圧がかかるため、加圧状態での平滑性が重要である。
グラビア印刷は、金属版と紙を直接接触させて転写する方式のため、紙に弾力性があると版に密接してインキの転移性がよい。
非塗工紙の手触り感のある本発明の嵩高塗工紙は、嵩高塗工紙の塗工層が平滑であって微細な凹凸面で光の散乱反射が起き、白紙部はしっとりとした光沢で、印刷した部分は平滑なインキ皮膜が形成されて高い発色性を示す。
【0024】
以上のように、本発明は、白色度の高いBCTMPとデラミカオリン、平滑化、柔軟化効果のある界面活性剤により、低密度であるにも関わらず高い印刷適性を有し、手触り感のよい嵩高塗工紙を提供するものである。
【0025】

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a coated paper for printing provided with a pigment coated layer, and more particularly to a bulky coated paper excellent in printability despite having a low density.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In order to obtain high-quality printed matter, pigment-coated printing paper that has been subjected to pigment coating has been widely used. This pigment-coated printing paper is made by coating the irregularities on the surface of the base paper with the fine structure of the pigment.Furthermore, those with smoothness improved by calendering process can reproduce ink color and halftone dots when printed. Is excellent. However, on the other hand, the density is high, the unevenness is poor, and the feel such as softness is greatly different from that of uncoated paper.
[0003]
Under such circumstances, there is a demand for a printing paper having excellent ink coloring properties and halftone dot reproducibility when printed, while maintaining the feel, unevenness, bulk, etc. of uncoated paper.
For this purpose, a pigment coating layer is provided on the base paper as long as the unevenness of the base paper is not impaired.However, if the unevenness is emphasized, the printability becomes insufficient, and if the printability is emphasized, the unevenness of the base paper disappears. Therefore, it has been difficult to achieve both the texture of uncoated paper and the appropriate printing. Furthermore, in recent years, visualization and colorization of printed matter in commercial printing such as flyers, catalogs, brochures, direct mail, etc., and color printing of main body and software instruction manuals have been advanced due to the spread of electronic devices, and paper is expensive. While printability is required, paper has been required to be lighter due to cost reduction.
[0004]
As a means of reducing the weight of paper, it is conceivable to reduce the weight of the base paper and the amount of coating, but simply reducing the weight of the base paper reduces the opacity of the paper, so the amount of coating layer increases to compensate for it. As a result, it does not lead to effective weight reduction. In order to prevent the opacity from decreasing, it is conceivable to use a filler having a large specific surface area such as silica or white carbon or a filler having a high refractive index such as titanium dioxide, but this does not lead to a reduction in weight. It is also conceivable to increase the freeness of the pulp used.However, as a result, the paper layer structure becomes porous and the air permeability and smoothness are reduced. It is not effective because it deteriorates, the printability decreases, and the density mainly increases. As another method, calendering at a high temperature can be considered as one of the methods, but the effect is insufficient.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
An object of the present invention is to provide a bulky coated paper which has a texture of an uncoated paper even after a pigment coating layer is provided and has excellent printability despite its low density.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present inventors have conducted intensive studies to solve the above problems, and as a result, by using a base paper containing a specific pulp and providing a pigment coating layer containing a specific pigment, the texture of uncoated paper And a bulky coated paper excellent in printability was completed. The present invention includes the following inventions.

[0010]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The bulky coated paper of the present invention contains BCTMP manufactured from hardwood and BCTMP manufactured from softwood as base paper. BCTMP is an abbreviation for Bleached Chemiothermical Pulp, and refers to pulp treated with TMP after being immersed in a low-concentration chemical for a short time.
TMP (thermomechanical pulp), which is generally used, is manufactured from softwood, and has advantages such as low production cost, bulky and high cushioning properties of the fiber itself, and high opacity due to its high light scattering property. On the other hand, it is said that the whiteness is low, the strength is weak, and the fading property is also bad.If it is used as printing paper, it affects the printing glossiness, ink setting property, gradation reproducibility, Off-wheel blisters were also affected, limiting their use.
[0011]
The BCTMP used in the present invention has a long fiber content, a small number of slivers, a soft fiber, a high breaking length, a high bursting strength and a high whiteness as compared with a general TMP. In particular, BCTMP produced from hardwood has a smaller fiber thickness and a shorter fiber length, and thus has a lower bulk than BCTMP produced from softwood, but is excellent in printability, smoothness, and ink acceptability. BCTMP manufactured from hardwoods is superior to BCTMP manufactured from softwoods in bleaching properties and smoothness when formed into paper.
[0012]
Among them, BCTMP produced from aspen has high strength and whiteness because the aspen fiber has a thin fiber membrane and a small fiber diameter, and thus has good chemical permeability and excellent bleaching properties. Pulp produced from aspen has a low lignin content and is excellent in fading.
In the present invention, it is preferable to include a mixture of BCTMP manufactured from hardwood, particularly BCTMP manufactured from aspen, mixed with BCTMP manufactured from softwood at a mass ratio of 70:30 to 95: 5.
[0013]
Raw materials for softwood BCTMP include radiata pine, balsam fir, spruce, western hemlock and the like. Among them, BCTMP produced from spruce has long fibers, high whiteness, and is effective in bulkiness. In order to balance both bulkiness and surface properties when formed into paper, it is preferable to mix BCTMP produced from hardwood and BCTMP produced from softwood within the above range. By containing BCTMP mixed in the above range in the range of 10 to 40% by mass of the pulp constituting the base paper, it becomes possible to satisfy bulk, strength, texture, and printability. If the amount is less than 10% by mass, no effect on bulkiness is observed, and if the amount is more than 40% by mass, strength and discoloration are adversely affected. The mixed BCTMP is preferably beaten to 130 to 180 ml at the Canadian Standard Freeness (CSF) because the surface smoothness is improved. Among them NaOH were mixed hardwood and softwood from the state of the chip, Na 2 SO 3, H 2 O 2, DTPA (C 14 H 23 N 3 O 10), treated with MgSO 4 and the like, are bleached with H 2 O 2 Is preferable because of high whiteness, high strength, and flexibility.
[0014]
The bulky coated paper of the present invention contains 0.2 to 1.0% by mass of a surfactant having a softening and smoothing effect in the base paper. Surfactants that have the effect of softening and smoothing the base paper pulp include, for example, mineral oil, higher alcohols, polyethylene glycol type nonionic surfactants, polyhydric alcohol type nonionic surfactants, and cationic surfactants By including these surfactants, it is possible to produce a base paper having a good feel and a bulky feel. Such a surfactant inhibits the hydrogen bonding between the pulp and has the effect of suppressing the increase in the density of the paper and has an effect on the smoothness. Among them, an ester compound of a polyhydric alcohol and a fatty acid, a higher alcohol, and an ester compound of a polyhydric alcohol and a fatty acid having an oxyalkylene group are particularly preferable. When the content in the base paper is less than 0.2% by mass, there is no effect of increasing the bulk, and when the content exceeds 1.0% by mass, not only does the effect reach a plateau, but also the papermaking system becomes dirty, Is not preferred.
[0015]
The bulky coated paper of the present invention preferably contains high white DIP in addition to BCTMP produced from the above-mentioned hardwood and softwood. In this case, the DIP is preferably bleached to a whiteness of 70% or more.
DIP (Deinked pulp) bleached with FAS (Formaminated sulphinic acid) which does not cause a decrease in strength is preferable, and a range of 5 to 50% by mass in the whole pulp is preferable. Mixing more than 50% by mass is not preferable in terms of printability and strength. As other pulp, GP (Ground pulp) and KP (Kraft pulp) are appropriately blended according to the purpose. GP is effective in terms of bulkiness and opacity, but has low strength, and since it has a large lignin content, discoloration and weather resistance are poor.
[0016]
The base paper in the bulky coated paper of the present invention is formed by a general papermaking method, for example, a fourdrinier paper machine including a top wire, a round net paper machine, or an acid paper machine or a neutral paper machine using a combination of both. , Alkaline papermaking. If necessary, an internal filler is added, but the filler is not particularly limited, and a general filler is used. For example, inorganic fillers such as calcium carbonate, titanium dioxide, talc, kaolin and silica, and organic fillers such as plastic pigment may be used as long as they do not hinder opacity and bulkiness.
[0017]
Furthermore, various internal sizing agents, paper strength enhancers, drainage improvers, retention improvers, and the like may be appropriately selected and added as long as the bulkiness, printability, and texture are not impaired.
Further, after papermaking, starch, PVA or the like may be preliminarily coated using a size press, a gate roll coater, a pre-metalling size press or the like.
[0018]
The bulky coated paper of the present invention has a coating layer having an average particle size of 1.5 to 6.0 μm, preferably 2.0 to 5.0 μm by a laser diffraction method and an average particle size by a sedimentation method. Is 0.7 to 2.0 μm, preferably 0.9 to 1.5 μm, a whiteness of 88 or more, and preferably a thin hexagonal plate of delaminated kaolin (hereinafter referred to as delamikaolin and Abbreviated).
Delamikaolin has a thin hexagonal plate shape, and enhances smoothness alongside the surface of the coating layer. In addition, since water retention is good, it is possible to reduce the amount of coating. Delamikaolin has an average particle size of less than 1.5 μm according to a laser diffraction measurement method and an average particle size of less than 0.7 μm according to a sedimentation measurement method. It is not preferable that the average particle size determined by the diffraction type measurement method exceeds 6.0 μm and the average particle size determined by the sedimentation type measurement method exceeds 2.0 μm, because printability (for example, print glossiness) deteriorates.
If the particle size of delamikaolin is not uniform, the bulkiness and the smoothness are unfavorably affected.
[0019]
Delamikaolin used in the coating layer of the bulky coated paper of the present invention is preferably incorporated in all the pigments in an amount of 30% by mass or more. If the amount is less than 30% by mass, the water retention of the coating layer is reduced, and the opacity is also reduced.
In the coating layer of the bulky coated paper of the present invention, in addition to delamikaolin, inorganic pigments such as calcium carbonate such as heavy calcium carbonate and light calcium carbonate, titanium oxide, satin white, barium sulfate, barium sulfate and calcium sulfate. It is also possible to use organic pigments such as plastic pigments.
[0020]
The adhesive for the coating layer is not particularly limited. For example, various copolymers such as styrene / butadiene, styrene / acrylic, ethylene / vinyl acetate, butadiene / methyl methacrylate, vinyl acetate / butyl acrylate, and polyvinyl acetate are used. Synthetic adhesives such as alcohol (PVA) / maleic anhydride copolymers, acrylic acid / methyl methacrylate copolymers, proteins such as casein, soy protein, synthetic proteins, oxidized starch, positive starch, urea phosphate Starch such as modified starch and cellulose derivatives such as carboxymethylcellulose, hydroxymethylcellulose and hydroxyethylcellulose are used alone or in combination. These adhesives are used in an amount of 5 to 50 parts by mass, more preferably 5 to 30 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the pigment. If necessary, caustic soda, ammonia, or the like can be used as a pH adjuster, and other dispersants, thickeners, water retention agents, defoamers, waterproofing agents, dyes, and the like can be added.
[0021]
The paint used for forming the coating layer of the bulky coated paper of the present invention is applied to one or both sides of the base paper of the present invention by a commonly used coating apparatus. Common coating devices include bar coaters, roll coaters, reverse roll coaters, blade coaters, air knife coaters, rod coaters, bill blade coaters, gate roll coaters, curtain coaters, die slot coaters, gravure coaters, champlex coaters, and size presses. And a coater. The coating amount is may be properly selected depending on the desired characteristics, is 6 to 15 g / m 2 is an appropriate range considering the density and printability of the whole coated paper, sufficient coverage is less than 6 g / m 2 Not only are the properties and print gloss not obtained, but also the whiteness and opacity are insufficient.
[0022]
In the finishing step (smoothing) after coating, it is preferable not to perform or reduce the calendering treatment as much as possible to maintain opacity and bulkiness. By adopting the base paper and the coating layer that constitute the bulky coated paper of the present invention, the bulky coating having a good bulkiness and a good touch can be obtained without reducing or smoothing the smoothing process. It became possible to obtain paper.
[0023]
The bulky coated paper of the present invention has a density as coated paper of less than 0.9 g / m 3 and a compression ratio of 1.5 or more. When the compression ratio is 1.5 or more, it means that it has elasticity, which affects the transferability of the ink at the time of printing and the printability such as color development.
The smoothness of the paper surface is also a major factor in the transfer of the ink, but since pressure is applied when transferring the ink, the smoothness in the pressurized state is important.
Gravure printing is a system in which a metal plate and paper are transferred in direct contact with each other. Therefore, if the paper has elasticity, it is in close contact with the plate and has good ink transferability.
The bulky coated paper of the present invention, which has the feel of uncoated paper, has a smooth coating layer on the bulky coated paper and causes scattering and reflection of light on fine uneven surfaces, and the white paper portion has a moist gloss. In the printed portion, a smooth ink film is formed and shows high color development.
[0024]
As described above, the present invention has high printability in spite of low density and good touch feeling by using BCTMP having high whiteness and surfactant having delamicaolin, smoothing and softening effects. It is intended to provide bulky coated paper.
