2. 1. Optics of coated paperboard : Aspects of surface treatment on porous structures

   Author : Erik Bohlin; Caisa Johansson; Magnus Lestelius; Per Edström; Per-Åke Johansson; Karlstads universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Abstract : Calendering of coated and uncoated paper is widely used to enhance optical properties such as gloss and print quality. The aim of this thesis is to characterize coatings and prints, and to validate models using experimental results from optical measurements of physical samples. Calendering of coated paper often leads to a brightness decrease. READ MORE
