  2. 1. On the compression properties of paper - implications for calendering

    Author : Peter Rättö; KTH; []
    Keywords : calendering; compression; creep; density; finite element analysis; heat transfer coefficient; mechanical properties; temperature; thermal conductivity; viscoelasticity; z-direction;

    Abstract : The objective of this work was to study and describe thedeformation of paper in the thickness direction in a calendernip that in some cases was heated. The temperature distributionin the thickness direction was evaluated using modelexperiments. READ MORE

  4. 2. Precalendering and its interaction with other unit processes in the manufacturing of woodfree paper and board

    Author : Olof Steffner; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; calendering; soft-nip calendering; wet press; compression; deformation; coating; water box;

    Abstract : ABSTRACTDuring calendering, which is done in order to improve its printing properties, the paper is compressed in one or more roll nips. Paper is a viscoelastic material and this will influence its performance during calendering. READ MORE

  5. 3. Variations Related to Print Mottle in Starch-Containing Paper Coatings

    Author : Micael Ragnarsson; Lars Järnström; Gunnar Engström; Martti Toivakka; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; pigment coating; porosity variations; coating structure; coat weight variations; starch; dextrin; CMC; latex; print mottle; calendering; pilot coating; offset printing; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Starch in paper coatings is known to increase the risk of print mottle in lithographic offset printing. The objective of this study was to increase the understanding of this behaviour. READ MORE

  6. 4. Baggy paper webs : Effect of uneven moisture and grammage profiles in different process steps

    Author : Cecilia Land; Lennart Stolpe; Kaarlo Niskanen; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bagginess; drying; calendering; grammage; moisture content; paper; profile; reels; softwood kraft pulp; storage; strain; tension; web; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : One of the problems encountered in paper converting is caused by the occurrence of "baggy webs", which essentially is when the tension profile of the paper web is uneven. In an area with low tension the paper is longer, which results in bagginess. READ MORE

  7. 5. Polymer-coated paper and board - Role of substrate, polymer characteristics and additives

    Author : Thomas Schuman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; surface energy; latex; surface roughness; corona; contact angle; barrier properties; liquid sorption; surface treatment; calendering; poly vinyl alcohol ; coating;

    Abstract : The surface roughness of paper or board has a significant influence on the homogeneity of an applied polymer film, and this thesis discusses how it may be improved by a surface treatment, e.g. high-temperature calendering or precoating. READ MORE
