Editorial: Special coating issue contains highlighted works from TAPPICon 2023, TAPPI Journal November 2023
ABSTRACT: Did you know that TAPPI’s Coating and Graphic Arts Division has changed its name to Coating, Printing, and Surface Enhancement (CPSE) Division? This change occurred mid-year, as our members realized that the new name fits much better with the day-to-day workings of the Division, as well as the broader activities to functionalize and add value to paper and paperboard that continue to expand into new arenas.

Editorial: TAPPI Journal goes Open Access in 2020, TAPPI Journal October 2019
ABSTRACT: Scientific publishing has changed significantly since the 1990s with the evoluation of the internet, which has largely migrated journals from subscription-based print publications to online content like eBooks, portable document formats (PDFI's), and web-based HTML files. Along with these changes in format has come a growing trend for online journal content to be either partially or fully "Open Access" (OA) so that more institutions and individuals can take full advantage of scholarly literature without a subscription of society membership status.

Nanocellulose in Japan: An industrial perspective, TAPPI Journal April 2019
ABSTRACT: With the maturing of Japan’s economy, domestic demand for paper and paperboard is more likely to level off in the long term. Japanese paper companies are accelerating overseas production, especially in the emerging Asian markets, while strengthening competitiveness of domestic mills and developing new products. In Japan, we have always focused on emerging technologies and driving innovation in the pulp and paper industry. As a business definition, innovation does not equal innovative technology. Innovative technology can become innovation only when it is commercialized and used in industry.

Real-time monitoring of bubble size distribution in a foam forming process, TAPPI JOURNAL August 2019
ABSTRACT: Foam forming is an intricate option to lessen fiber flocculation and to get better energy and water efficiency when making fiber-based products. Developed during the 1970s, this approach has recently received renewed attention, mainly because it also offers possibilities to widen the fiber-based product portfolios with novel and more valuable products. In addition to air content, bubble size is the most important property of foam. Foam quality control is essential for building real-world foam forming processes. In this work, we show how bubble size can be monitored with direct optical imaging in real time in real process conditions, and how such analysis helps adjust foam quality and discover process faults in foam forming.
