摘要:
The present invention relates to a sizing composition that, when applied to paper substrate, creates a substrate, preferably suitable for inkjet printing, having increased print density, enhanced print mottle, as well as print sharpness, low HST, and/or image dry time, the substrate preferably having high brightness and reduced color-to-color bleed as well. In addition, the present invention relates to a method of reducing the HST of a paper substrate by applying the sizing composition to at least one surface thereof. Further, the application relates to methods of making and using the sizing composition, as well as methods of making and using the paper containing the sizing composition.

摘要:
A paper having thereon a coating composition including at least one pigment and at least one starch is provided. The pigment and the starch may be added to the surface of the paper at a size press during the formation of the paper in a ratio of at least 1:1. Papers coated with the coating composition have an enhanced surface ink density in a subsequent printing or tinting process at an ink usage that is equal or substantially equal to that used to tint conventional, uncoated papers. Accordingly, a paper coated with the coating composition requires the utilization of a lesser amount of ink than that required for conventional file folders to achieve the desired end color. In addition, the coating composition permits for an enhancement in print and/or tint quality if a reduction in ink use is not utilized. A method of forming a file folder is also provided.

The present invention relates to a sizing or coating composition that, when applied to paper substrate, creates a substrate having improved waterfastness, surface strength, and surface strength as measured by resistance to abrasion. In addition, the present invention relates to paper substrates containing the composition, as well as methods of using and making the paper substrate and composition.
摘要:
Thermally expandable crimped hollow fibers having expandable regions interconnected with crimped portions are provided. The crimped hollow fibers may be formed from any hollow polymer fiber that is capable of being crimped and is reactive to heat. Pressure, such as from two opposed mating crimping dies, is applied to portions of a hollow polymer fiber to compress or crimp portions of the fiber, thereby leaving uncrimped or expandable regions containing an expandable substance. In use, the crimped hollow fibers may be contacted with cellulose fibers in the wet-end section of the paper-making process and the resulting mixture formed into a web of entangled fibers. Heat from the dryer section expands the expandable substance in the expandable portion of the crimped hollow fiber to bulk the thus formed paper product. The crimped hollow fibers are especially useful in papers having a basis weight from about 20 to about 200 gsm.
