Paper Coating Chemicals

Paper Coating Chemicals are essential materials used in the paper manufacturing process to improve the surface properties, strength, appearance, and printability of paper. These chemicals play a crucial role in producing high-quality coated papers used in printing, packaging, labeling, and publishing industries.

By applying specialized coatings, manufacturers can achieve smoother finishes, better ink absorption, enhanced brightness, and increased durability.

Pre-treatment
Paper coating chemicals are substances applied to the surface of paper or paperboard to enhance its physical and visual characteristics. These coatings create a uniform surface that improves printing quality and adds functional benefits such as water resistance, gloss, and strength.

Mixing

Mix the dry powder with max 4.4 qt (4.2 L) of cold, potable water, max 28 %, per 33 lb (15 kg) bag. Do not overwater. Mix for 2–3 minutes with a heavy-duty drill mixer (650 minimum rpm) to obtain a lump-free mix. Product may be refreshed by re-mixing but do not ad more water.

Application:

Apply blended material onto substrate at a thickness of 0” to 2” (0–50 mm) for all surfaces by using a steel trowel. After initial set of material (approx. 10–15 min.), remove any overlap marks, seams and inconsistencies by scraping with a steel trowel.


Post-treatment and curing:

Protect MYCROREPAIR from excessive heat or draft conditions during the curing process. Protect for up to 24 hours after completed installation. Material can be walked on after 30–45 minutes. Before covered by carpet or MYCROREFLECTS be sure that the subfloor is dry enough.
