Emox-2050 : is oxidised tapioca starch used for surface sizing
Application:
- Used to improve the surface strength of paper
- Improves the surface properties of the paper and board.
- Starch improves the surface strength of the paper by binding the loose fibres on the paper surface.
- For this application Oxidised starches are used.
- Wax pick is the parameter for Uncoated papers to assess the performance of the starch and IGT is the parameter for Coated papers.
- Surface sizing improves the smoothness of the paper.Improves the Stiffness and Printability of the paper/paper board.
- Reduces the porosity of the sheet and improves the Coating hold-out in the succeeding converting stage.
- Reduces the dusting at the paper converting stage.
