Definitions
- This invention relates to a coated paper wrapper to replace hot liquid form waxed wrappers such as those used for sticky candies and gum, comprising a functional, heat sealable, waterbased high-release grease, oil, water and water vapour transmission barrier coating composition on one or both surfaces of the paper substrate, and methods for manufacturing the coating composition and the coated paper wrapper.
- the coated paper wrapper and the process of manufacture excludes the use of a hot wax component.
- Manufacturing of the current hot wax wrapper for chewing gum and re-solubilised or high tack sugared candies involves up to three separate processes.
- the first process includes, flexographic or gravure print application to the surface and reverse of a paper substrate.
- the second process involves suppling or re-moisturising of the paper substrate with chemicals to enhance the paper’s flexibility.
- This process involves the application of polyethylene glycol and/or glycerine, although is not limited to these chemicals to achieve the desired level of paper flexibility.
- Paper flexibility enhancement is necessary for wax wrappers to ensure that the wrapper, which becomes harder and less flexible through the application of wax, does not tear during forming and/or wrapping.
- the third process involves the heating of solid blocks or granules of paraffin or other petroleum wax or modified wax blends (i.e. a hot wax component) at a high temperature in specialised wax bath containers.
- the high temperature is necessary to convert the wax from a solid to a heated liquid state and needs to be maintained accurately, as fluctuations in temperature can influence the wax viscosity and therefore the application grammages to the paper which will detrimentally influence the mechanical properties of the wax paper.
- the suppled paper is submerged into the wax bath and metered to ensure the paper is fully coated on one or both sides. Thereafter, the hot wax-impregnated paper requires cooling to re-solidify the waxed on exiting the heated wax bath/application system.
- the noxious fumes or gases produced during heating are an environmental pollutant; hot wax is required to be applied at fairly high grammages in order to be effective, usually between 5 to 20 grams per square meter (g/m 2 ) dry on each or single surface of the paper substrate, resulting in a relatively thick wrapper; the metering of applied hot wax to the paper substrate can be susceptible to inconsistency and is influenced by the temperature of the heated wax, which detrimentally affects the mechanical and release properties of the paper wrapper, the wrapper cost, wrapper yield and, volume of non-sustainable waste.
- a further disadvantage of the conventional hot waxed wrapper is that once the wrapped candy has been consumed, the wax wrapper is disposed of into the trash and destined for a landfill or is merely disposed of directly into the environment. Given that the conventional wax wrapper is non-disintegrating, non-bio-degradable and non-compostable waste and there are no “known” recovery or recycling methods for such hot waxed wrappers, these are not environmentally-“friendly” or “sustainable.”
- the total wrapper should degrade, per conditions described in EN14045, to less than 10% of the original weight and residues should be approximately 2mm in diameter.
- Bio-Degradability refers to the biological, aerobic, or anaerobic decomposition of the wrapping material into CO 2 , water, and minerals. Importantly EN 14046 describes required biodegradability of 90% within 6 months, under specified conditions.
- - Compostabilitv refers to disintegration and biodegradability as described above and that the wrapping material should have no negative effect on the composting process as described in EN13432 and should not leave harmful residues behind.
- Disintegration and decomposition can only occur if the waste is considered as food by microorganisms. All landfill environments are inherently occupied with specific microbes and enzymes, these organisms have adapted themselves to consume and breakdown trash. Unfortunately these micro-organisms, including aerobic and anaerobic bacteria do not recognise the chemical compounds in the standard hot waxed wrapper as organic food compounds, and therefore the standard hot waxed wrapper will not sustainably disintegrate or bio-degrade in the waste stream.
- Photodegradation or photolysis is the process by which the chemical bonds in the wax, over centuries of continuous exposure to the sun’s ultra violet (UV) rays, are broken down by photons in the UV spectrum.
- UV ultra violet
- landfills are covered daily with a layer of earth to reduce odours and so from a practical perspective, it is not possible to expose hot waxed wrappers to the sun.
- Respirometry tests are performed by placing solid wastes for testing e.g. fruit peels, paper board, various films and film/paper laminates, etc. in a vessel containing a specific microbe-rich compost and with aeration. Through microbe assimilation, generated CO 2 levels serve as an indicator of degradation.
- a coated paper wrapper comprising or consisting of a print layer on one or both surfaces of a paper substrate and a water-based high-release grease, oil, water and water vapour transmission barrier coating over the print layer on one or both surfaces (i.e. the surface and/or the reverse), the barrier coating comprising or consisting of:
- an acrylic co-polymerized resin such as an OH-functional acrylate binder including a carboxy-functional styrene-acrylic resin, in particular a styrene-acrylic copolymer emulsified resin or a styrene-acrylic copolymer emulsified resin in combination with a styrene-acrylic copolymer resin solution;
- a wax emulsion including any one or more of a polyethylene, paraffin, polypropylene, or carnauba wax emulsion, preferably a polyethylene/paraffin wax emulsion blend;
- an antifoam such as an emulsion of a polyether siloxane copolymer which contains fumed silica
- the print layer may comprise or consist of one or more layers of print compositions and may include one or more of pearlised, white, pigmented, metallised, matt colour, or metallic surface prints or coating layers, as well as other suitable print finishes known to those skilled in the art.

- This invention relates to a coated paper wrapper to replace hot waxed wrappers such as those used for sticky candies, comprising a water-based high-release grease, oil, water and water vapour transmission barrier coating composition on one or both surfaces, and methods for manufacturing the coating composition and the coated paper wrapper.
- the process of manufacture and coated paper wrapper excludes the use of a hot wax component.
- the coated paper wrappers of the invention are recyclable and re-pulpable and will disintegrate in a landfill, therefore complying with the definition of “Upcycled PackagingTM”, which means any packaging which has been re-designed in a qualified and measured way to: o reduce waste impact and or pollution; o be mechanically and chemically fit for purpose; and o be economically more viable due to reduced costs and/or more efficient production processes.
- Upcycled PackagingTM any packaging which has been re-designed in a qualified and measured way to: o reduce waste impact and or pollution; o be mechanically and chemically fit for purpose; and o be economically more viable due to reduced costs and/or more efficient production processes.
- the water-based high-release grease, oil, water and water vapour transmission barrier coating composition of the invention is formulated for application to paper, over print, in a single flexographic or gravure process. This eliminates two separate processes required for hot wax wrapper production, namely suppling and waxing, as well as the associated toxic chemical inventories required for these processes.
- the conversion of paper with the water-based high-release grease, oil, water and water vapour transmission barrier coating composition of the invention enables a functional and fit for purpose wrapper at a much lower wrapper grammage.
- the coating of the invention can be applied at between 1 g/m 2 to 3.0 g/m 2 dry, more preferably between 1 .5 g/m 2 to 2.5 g/m 2 dry, even more preferably between 1 .5 g/m 2 to 2 g/m 2 dry, over the paper substrate’s outer and inner surfaces, yet still achieves a fit for purpose coating, compared with 6 to 10 g/m 2 in the case of hot wax wrappers and 2.5 g/m 2 to 3 g/m 2 dry in the case of the non-wax paper coating described in WO2014/172717.
- An advantage of the ability to use lower grammage includes cost saving on materials (50 to 60% compared with hot wax).
- the water-based high-release grease, oil, water and water vapour transmission barrier coating composition of the invention provides for faster evaporation , which allows faster drying, and this in turn allows an extension of print conversion speeds by gravure printing of up to 300 m/min, compared with the formulation described in WO2014/172717 which only achieves about 100 m/min to produce a fit for purpose final product with complete drying.
- Inadequately dried coating typically results in transfer of coating onto the press roller which affects print quality, results in lengthy press stoppages for clean-up and also can lead to block reels, which need to be disposed.
- the increased print application speed available with the formulation of the invention while still providing complete drying therefore reduces production costs.
- the coated paper wrapper of the invention also provides a superior mechanical wrapping line speed of more than 1000 pieces of candy per minute, compared to only 800 - 1000 pieces per minute for the coated paper wrapper of WO2014/172717 (i.e. a >20% improved wrapping output).
- the water-based high-release grease, oil, water and water vapour transmission barrier coating composition of the invention is advantagous over the formulation described in WO2014/172717, in that a single formulation is fit for purpose for use on both the first and second surfaces of the paper substrate, i.e. the inner surface of the wrapper which contacts the candy and the outer surface of the wrapper.
- a single formulation is fit for purpose for use on both the first and second surfaces of the paper substrate, i.e. the inner surface of the wrapper which contacts the candy and the outer surface of the wrapper.
- KandyKote® V8 is a new water-based high-release grease, oil, water and water vapour transmission barrier formulation recommended for application to paper wrappers to facilitate release from sticky candy such as gum.
- KandyKote® V8 is applied to one or both paper surfaces (i.e. the surface and/or reverse), optionally over a print layer, typically at between 1 .5 - 2.0 g/m 2 dry.
- KandyKote® V8 can be applied through application processes such as gravure, flexographic, varnisher, rollercoat, semi- flexographic roll, blade coater or airknife coaters would be known to be useful to those skilled in the art.
- direct gravure or rotogravure printing presses involves engraving or chemically etching micronized cells or wells over a chromed copperbased cylinder. These cells are specifically engraved or chemically etched to ensure specific cell dimensions and volumes. The unengraved or unetched areas of the cylinder represent the non-image areas. The cylinder rotates in a bath called an ink pan. As the cylinder turns, the engraved or etched cell volumes are filled with KandyKote® V8, the excess product is wiped off the cylinder by a flexible steel doctor blade. The remaining product in the recessed io cells forms the desired print or image by direct transfer to the paperboard substrate as the paperboard passes between the plate cylinder and the impression cylinder.
- the coated paperboard subsequent to the transfer of the coating is drawn through gas or electric fired ovens, these ovens which are enclosed remove applied moisture and ensure the coating is dry before it reaches the next gravure station.
- KandyKote® V8 is inline gravure applied at approximately 1 .5 to 2.0 g/m 2 dry over paper or over print. It is to be appreciated that a person skilled in the art may modify the grammage to between 1 .0 to about 3 g/m 2 dry depending on their requirements.
- flexographic, or “Flexo” printing is a printing process which utilises a flexible relief plate, which is mounted over a roller.
- the plate is based on a light sensitive polymer.
- a negative image is placed over the plate, which is subsequently exposed to ultra violet light, the polymer hardens where light passes through the film, the remaining polymer which changes in consistency is washed away, this process can also be done by lazer etching.
- a standard rubber roller can be used instead of mounting a full plate.
- the Flexo process involves a fountain roller which is submerged in the ink pan, this roller transfers the coating from the pan onto an anilox, which is also known as a metering roller.
- the anilox roller which has engraved recessed cells which are pre-determined to carry a specific volume of coating.
- the doctor blade scrapes the anilox roll to ensure that the predetermined ink quantity delivered is only what is in the engraved cells, the coatings are transferred onto flexible printing plates or solid rubber roller as an alternative to a plate cylinder.
- the impression cylinder applies pressure to the plate cylinder, where the image is transferred to the paper substrate, the paper is drawn into an enclosed oven with heated air movement and the liquid carrier component from the coating is dried.
- KandyKote® V8 Process of manufacture
- KandyKote® V8 is specifically formulated for application to chewing gum paper as a replacement for hot waxed wrappers. It can be applied to the paper wrapper on either or both surfaces (i.e. the surface and/or reverse) of the paper to meet the mechanical demands of wrapping line forming and chewing gum protection.
