COATED ROLL PRINTING PAPER: COATING PIGMENT CONTAINS AT LEAST 50 GROUND CALCIUM CARBONATE AND LESS THAN 13 BINDER

摘要

A coated roll printing paper suitable for printing with cold-set offset printing inks is based on paper containing paper fibres and mineral filler and has a coating containing ground calcium carbonate (CaCO3) pigment in a synthetic binder. The novel features are that: (a) not less than 50 wt.% of the pigment is a natural ground CaCO3; (b) all the pigment has a fineness of not less than 80% being less than 2 mu m; and (c) the dry binder fraction is less than 13 wt.% with respect to the pigment. Also claimed is a method of making the paper.
