Paper Technology: Coating

This document discusses paper coating technology. It describes how paper is coated using various pigments, binders, and process materials to create different surface textures and levels of gloss. The coating process involves application rolls, blades, and coating machines to apply one or more layers of coating to the paper. This creates surfaces that are matt, semi-matt, or highly glossy depending on the coating structure and components.
