Additives and binders for coating colours and functional paper coatings — from foam at the coater to the barrier.
Paper is coated at web speeds of many hundred metres per minute — foam in the coating colour instantly becomes a runnability problem, and every wetting defect shows in the coating. Alongside the classic coating colour, functional coatings are growing: water and grease barriers replacing film lamination, heat-sealable layers, rub-resistant surfaces for packaging papers.
From BYK we carry defoamers for coating and application processes plus AQUACER and AQUAMAT wax emulsions for rub resistance, water repellency and slip; dispersions from Alberdingk Boley complement the binder side of functional paper coatings.
Defoamers for high web speeds — effective without wetting defects in the coating. — Defoamers →
Wax emulsions provide rub resistance and controlled slip. — Wax additives →
Dispersions as barrier binders — recyclable instead of laminated. — Acrylic & PU dispersions →
Control dynamic wetting with surface additives. — Surface additives →
