Video – Optimization of coating with water based barriers

Sustainability for personal health is one of the world’s most important challenges. Consumers are pursuing for “green” products and in addition to this there are increased regulations set by authorities for packaging material and waste. Fluorochemicals and fossil based medias are to be avoided.

Barrier layers can be applied in different ways and there is a huge potential in optimizing the properties by studying application dwell and metering method. A coating double layer will further improve barrier properties for high demanding applications.

The following video demonstrates application of olive oil on paper samples coated with water based barriers, basis weight of the paper is 39 g/m².

Rod- and resilient tip metering are compared, other application methods such as blade coating, film press and curtain coater were excluded from this test as each of these methods have limitations in barrier coating.

 

For a copy of the full study report, please send your contact information to info@umv.com and we will submit the report in PDF format.

  UMV are proud to announce that recent findings within water based barrier coating will be presented at the following events The impact of base paper, dwell time and metering method related to barrier properties is the topic of the two papers   Nominated for best manuscript Click to see full speaker program Click to see full speaker program Read more →
