    Recently, the paper manufacturing companies in Japan have been increasing waste paper stock usage as a result of taking the environment and resources-preservation issues into consideration, Besides, the operation of paper machines and coaters at higher speed in order to reduce the production cost leads to the harder situation for the paper chemicals to show their efficiency, In fact, the retention of internal sizing agents and the effectiveness of surface sizing agents tend to decrease.
    Under the circumstances, it is strongly noticed to make paper with higher qualities and wider versatilities using surface agents that can improve the surface quality of paper, At this time, we shall present our surface sizing agents, POLYMARON E-100 series, together with the latest technical tendency of the agents.
    POLYMARON E-100 series show higher sizing effect compared with conventional surface sizing agents. Particularly when coated on neutralized papers, they show excellent sizing effect, writing quality and ink-jet printability. Moreover, they have excellent mechanical stability and less foaming property which is good for operation.

    Direct thickness measurements (also called “caliper” sensors) provide an actual thickness measurement of paper web. There are two methods used to provide this. The first is to measure the distance between two product contacting sensing “elements”. The other is to assume the distance between two sensor heads is fixed and to measure the distance to each head from a product to their support. Of the two methods the first will typically provide the highest degree of accuracy and repeatability but needs to either physically touch the material to keep the sensing element at a fixed standoff distance. The contacting sensor sometimes causes the marking, damage and dirt spike problems to products especially for lightweight papers on high-speed machines and supercalender applications. Also the contacting head of Caliper sensor itself has abrasion and dirt build-up problems as a maintenance issue.
    So the second method has been developed for a long time, but non contacting methods typically have accuracy problems as a scanning on-line sensor because of the assumed fixed head separation. Honeywell has solved this issue by physically compensating the separation in the two sensing heads and introduced the Non Contacting Laser Caliper. The method for looking at the distance of each sensing head to the sheet and assuming a fixed distance between the two sensing heads is using laser triangulation and Z sensors. This paper presents the new developed Honeywell NC Laser Caliper.

    Recently, demands for efficient insolubilizing systems for polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) have been increased with market expansion of communications paper such as thermal paper. Various kinds of insolubilizing systems have been developed, but there are still problems to be solved, for example, insufficient performance, corrosion of thermal head in printer due to chloride ions. Thus, we have developed a novel insolubilizing system composed of carboxylated anionic PVA (A-PVA) , polyamide-epichlorohydrin (PAE) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) .Our novel system with insolubilizing agents called “PVA insolubilizer, CP series” has advantages of performance and reduction in chloride ion contents over A-PVA/PAE combination system.
    First, performances of various systems with or without PAE/PEI were studied for different types of PVAs, using cast film from their solution. The results showed that A-PVA/PAE/PEI combination system has an excellent insolubility. Application to over-coated layer in thermal paper is also exemplified. Then, mechanism of insolubilization by the combination system is briefly discussed.

    Recently, the growth of Ink jet Paper industry is remarkable. That is because the quality of Ink Jet printing method has improved especially at personal use.
    The coating layer of Ink Jet paper include a large amount of cationic resins compared with offset printing paper system. Because the cation resins work as a receptor of anionic Ink jet reagent. The common SBR latexes have been used at Offset printing paper as a binder of coating layer. On the other hand, Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is the main binder polymer of Ink jet printing because normal SBR Latexes are modified by anionic surfactant, so it caused coagulation between anionic latex and cationic resin.
    In this case PVA-g-Latexes are developed as using just PVA as protective colloid having stability against cationic chemicals. In this report the characteristics of PVA-g-Latex and application as a binder of Ink Jet coating layer are introduced.

  • The Effects of Cationic Polymer Addition on Size Retention and Paper Sizing Performance in Rosin Emulsion Sizing

    Various cationic polyacrylamides (C-PAM) were added to pulp slurries for fixing rosin emulsion size, and the polymer properties influencing size retention ratio and paper sizing performance were studied. C-PAM with a high cationic density improved the retention ratio of rosin size, although paper sizing performance was low compared with C-PAM having a low charge density. These results show that sizing performance is influenced by not only rosin size content in handsheets but also the properties of C-PAM co-added to pulp slurries.
    When calcium carbonate filler and C-PAM with a high charge density were used, rosin emulsion size tended to adsorb on not only pulp fibers but also the filler. Both size retention and paper sizing performance were improved, when C-PAM was added after the rosin emulsion size addition to pulp slurries rather than the inverse addition sequence. Furthermore, the longer the duration time between rosin emulsion size and C-PAM additions was, the lower the size retention as well as the sizing degree of the rosin-sized paper were.These results suggest that C-PAM should be applied to pulp slurries after the addition of rosin emulsion size for achieving more efficient paper sizing performance.
