Summary:Jul 27,2024

SBR Latex in Paper Coating

Introduction

Paper coating involves applying a layer of material to paper or paperboard to enhance its appearance, printability, and other properties. 

Styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) latex is a versatile polymer emulsion widely used in various applications, including paper coating. SBR latex is synthesized by copolymerizing styrene and butadiene monomers. Its unique properties make it an great choice for enhancing paper coatings.

Improved Printability: SBR latex provides great ink holdout, allowing for sharp and vibrant printing. It enhances the surface smoothness of coated papers, resulting in better print quality.

Enhanced Opacity: Coated papers with SBR latex exhibit improved opacity due to the uniform distribution of pigments. This opacity is crucial for preventing show-through and achieving high-quality prints.

Increased Gloss: SBR latex contributes to the glossiness of coated papers. The glossy finish enhances the visual appeal of printed materials.

Good Water Resistance: SBR latex imparts water resistance to coated papers, protecting them from moisture-related damage during printing and handling.

Improved Coating Uniformity: SBR latex ensures uniform coating coverage, minimizing variations in coat weight and surface properties.
