Production of antimicrobial paper using nanosilver, nanocellulose, and chitosan from a coronavirus perspective, TAPPI Journal July 2021
ABSTRACT: The pulp and paper industry has an opportunity to play a vital role in breaking the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic through production that supports widespread use of antimicrobial paper. This paper provides a brief review of paper and paper-related industries, such as those producing relevant additives, and R&D organizations that are actively engaged in developing antimicrobial papers. The focus here is on the potential of three nano-additives for use in production of antimicrobial papers that combat coronavirus: nanosilver, nanocellulose, and chitosan. Various recent developments in relevant areas and concepts underlining the fight against coronavirus are also covered, as are related terms and concepts.

Editorial: TAPPI Journal research themes in 2025 highlighted sustainability and process efficiency, TAPPI Journal February 2026
Each year, the pages of TAPPI Journal offer more than a collection of technical papers -- they provide a sanpshot of where our industry is appling its intellectual energy in research. Looking back at the January through November 2025 issues, there was a distant focus on improving materials performance, strenghtening process efficiency, and integrating sustainability considerations into existing manucaturing processes. A majority of this focus was centered on packaging for a variety of applications.

Effects of metal surface morphology on deposition behavior of microstickies from papermaking white water, TAPPI Journal July 2023
ABSTRACT: Deposition of small adhesive particles, called microstickies, onto pulp processing equipment and paper machines causes quality and operational problems for recycling mills. The factors that control deposition of microstickies onto surfaces of metal parts remain unclear. In this work, aluminum surfaces with a range of surface roughness were exposed to slurries containing microstickies. The deposition results showed that flat surfaces promote the aggregation and deposition of microstickies particles. Uneven surfaces tended to favor deposition of smaller microstickies, 0.2•1 µm, which may be related to greater contact area presented by the rougher surface. This work provides insights into the deposition of microstickies.

Editorial: Risks and rewards of research during a pandemic, TAPPI Journal August 2020
ABSTRACT: For universities and research institutions, the arrival of Covid-19 last spring halted activities around the world while exposing the need for detailed Public Health Emergency (PHE) plans to cope with a highly-contagious virus in laboratory and classroom settings. As classroom work switched to online platforms like Zoom, the reality set in that long-term plans were needed to safely keep students learning, research flowing, and universities financially stable.
