  • Paper material used to manufacture packages e.g., cups, cartons, bowls, plates, etc., that are intended to come into contact with liquids and food is provided with a barrier coating at least on the inside, i.e., the side that will be in contact with the liquid or food.
  • the barrier coating can make the package resistant against oils and grease, thereby enabling the package to contain the liquid or food without breaking down due to absorption of the oil and/or grease.
  • the barrier coating must be applied in relatively high concentrations for the package to meet performance targets. The high concentration needed for the barrier coating increases the costs associated with making the package and can limit machine runnability, package recyclability, and package compostability, all of which are undesirable.

  • the hand sheet was dried (wire side facing the dryer surface) on a rotary drum drier set at a temperature of 104.4°C (about 220°F) for about 90 seconds in a single pass.

Coating was performed using a GARDCO® stainless steel applicator rod and glass plate. Various rods with different diameters and grooving were used to coat different thicknesses onto the hand sheets. Coated and uncoated hand sheets were then tested for sizing performance using the Hercules Sizing Tester (HST) (Tappi Method T 530 om-02). HST measurements were conducted using about 20% acid ink that had a reflectance endpoint of about 70%, as described in the Tappi method. Sizing was measured at two spots on the wire or coated side of each sheet and the average of the two measurements was reported.

  • Example 1 the paper was treated with about 2.3 kg of the alkenyl succinic anhydride per 907 kg of the paper sheet. In Comparative Example 1, the paper was treated with about 19 kg per 907 kg of the paper sheet with rosin. The sizing performance was measured on the paper sheets both before and after further treatment with about 9 kg of a size press starch per 907 kg of the paper sheet. The sizing performance of the paper sheets are shown in Table 1.
  • Sizing performance (HST) tests on folding carton grade paper hand sheets were carried out.
  • the folding carton grade paper hand sheets were made as described above for the hand sheets used in Ex. 1 and CEx. 1.
  • the folding carton grade paper hand sheet was treated with about 1.2 kg of the alkenyl succinic anhydride per 907 kg of the folding carton grade paper.
  • the folding carton grade paper hand sheet was treated with about 3.6 kg of the rosin per 907 kg of the folding carbon grade paper.
  • the treated folding carton grade paper hand sheets were also treated with about 7.3 kg of the size press starch per 907 kg of the folding carton grade papers or about 1.2 kg of a barrier compound.
  • the barrier compound was a styrene acrylate emulsion (Acrylux SBMP acquired from Lumen Qui'mica).
  • the sizing performance of the folding carton grade papers were tested after treatment with the sizing composition and were also tested after the addition of the size press starch or the barrier compound. After treating the hand sheets with the size press starch, the hand sheets were passed through a drum dryer (single pass) at 220°F for 90 seconds. Hand sheets that were coated with the barrier chemistry were air dried and then set in a 125 °C oven for 5 minutes and then removed and equilibrated at room temperature.
  • the sizing performance of the folding carton grade papers are shown in Table 2 below.
  • Table 2 shows that 1.2 kg of the alkenyl succinic anhydride per 907 kg of the folding carton grade paper achieved a pre-size press HST value of 20.2 s and 3.6 kg of rosin per 907 kg of the folding carton grade paper achieved a HST value of 13.4 s.
  • HST value increased for both examples.
  • the increase for the folding carton grade sheet treated with the alkenyl succinic anhydride was greater than the one treated with rosin. This may be due to the slightly higher initial sizing performance.
  • the alkenyl succinic anhydride treated sheet had a significantly enhanced sizing performance as compared to rosin treated sheet.
  • the average KIT value for the blank sheet and the sheets coated with the alkenyl succinic anhydride or the rosin were measured and the values are shown in Table 3.

Once coated with the barrier compound the paper sheets were dried in an oven at a temperature of about 125°C for about 5 minutes. None of the paper sheets in Table 3 were coated with size press starch.
  • the average KIT values and the amount of the barrier compound applied to the sheets are also shown in Table 3. The average KIT values were the average of five (5) specimens, as measured according to the Grease Resistance Test for Paper and Paperboard T 559 pm-96 test method.
  • an average KIT value of up to 5 could be achieved by coating upwards of about 4.2 g/m 2 to about 4.75 g/m 2 of the barrier compound (blank coated with the barrier compound).
  • This demonstrates the ability to achieve oil and grease resistance via the barrier compound alone at a relatively heavy coating weight.
  • the sheets sized with rosin (CEx. 3 and 4) and the low dosage amount of the alkenyl succinic anhydride (Ex. 3) did not enhance the performance of the barrier compound as compared to the barrier compound alone at the relatively high coating weight.
  • the dosage amount of the alkenyl succinic anhydride increased from 0.45 kg to 0.9 kg per 907 kg of the blank sheet, the performance of the barrier compound was enhanced. More particularly, when the amount of alkenyl succinic anhydride was increased (Ex. 4), an average KIT value of up to 9 was achieved at a barrier compound dosage amount of only 3.35 g/m 2 . This was not only a surprising and unexpected improvement in the oil and grease resistance, but such improvement was obtained at a significantly lower dosage amount of the barrier compound.
  • the KIT value decreased for the hand sheet that had 3.6 g/m 2 of the barrier compound as compared to when it had 3.35 g/m 2 of the barrier compound. It was expected that the KIT value would increase with an increased amount of the barrier compound.
