Comparison of the application of polysaccharide-based barrier coatings on paper using film press and spray coating, TAPPI Journal January 2025

The growing demand for sustainable packaging has spurred research into biopolymer-based solutions and their application to paper substrates. This study compares the application of low solids, high viscous aqueous solutions of alginate and chitosan on two different paper substrates using a laboratory film press coater and a purpose-built spray coating unit, with a focus on barrier performance and practical industry considerations. Key parameters investigated are air flow rate, water vapor transmission rate, and grease resistance. Results showed that due to the low solids content of the applied biopolymer solutions, film press coating required a double-layer application for coat weights exceeding 4 g/m², making it less viable for industrial application. In contrast, spray coating allowed for higher application weights in a single step. The barrier properties of spray coated samples, compared to film press coatings, varied with the paper substrate: spray coating performed better on one substrate and worse on the other. Contact angle measurement of the substrates suggested that spray coating is more suitable for a more hydrophilic substrate because of improved surface wetting. The study also identified issues with drying conditions and pinholes affecting the quality of spray coated samples, indicating a need for further research to optimize these parameters.
