The chemistry of aluminu salts in papermaking, TAPPI Journal April 2022
ABSTRACT: Alum and related aluminum salts are used exxtensively in a variety of papermaking operations. The versatility of these aluminum additives stems from the ability of the various aluinum species to adsorb and interact with the other materials in the papermaking system.

Coatings for sustainable paper-based flexible packaging: Barrier properties and processability, TAPPI Journal November 2022
ABSTRACT: In this study, the use of waterborne barrier dispersions from trademarked BLUEWAVE Mechanical Dispersion Technology as thin coatings for paper-based flexible packaging was investigated. Prototypes were designed and examined for their performance in process, rheology, barrier, heat-seal/hot-tack, and coefficient of friction (CoF). Compositional details such as the type and amount of base resins and dispersants were found to significantly impact performances and were key to the development of new prototypes that deliver the performance profiles for implementation in paper-based flexible packaging applications.

Editorial: TAPPI Standards development: Authors and reviewers are welcome, TAPPI Journal July 2021
ABSTRACXT: Readers of TAPPI Journal (TJ) and those involved with R&D and process and product quality will be familiar with TAPPI Standard Test Methods. These test methods are necessary for validating research and ensuring the quality of end products. In addition to test methods, TAPPI also publishes information that isn’t directly related to test methods, such as technical information and definitions, which include specifications, guidelines, and glossaries. All Standards information is developed with the consensus of a technical working group that adheres to set procedures.

Wet pressing and product quality: Review of previous pilot machine trials, TAPPI Journal July 2020
ABSTRACT: The purpose of wet pressing is to remove water by mechanical means to consolidate the web and minimize the energy expended in the dryer section. In this process, paper is compacted and densified to degrees that impact end-use performance. Average density is increased by pressing, which has implications for grades where stiffness is important. The z-direction density gradients can affect printing and converting. Lastly, pressing affects surface quality of paper and its response to printing. Broadly speaking, the final press nip dominates the paper surface roughness and the early press nips affect printing performance.
