Abstract

This research aims to study the influence of carboxymethyl cellulose bio-based coatings on the properties of paper. In the experiment, the changes appeared from three levels of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) concentrations which were 1, 1.5, 2 %(w/v) and three levels of Glycerol which were 0.5, 0.75, 1 %(w/v). Then, they were coated on paper with a standard weight of 150 g/m2, 1 layer with a bar coater no.4 at the thickness of 34 microns. Later, they were tested for mechanical properties and printability properties. The results found that the paper was coated with carboxymethyl cellulose resulting in tensile strength and elongation properties, bursting strength, and increasing water absorption resistance. It also boosted paper gloss. For printability properties, the coated paper held great font details and can print to an increased color gamut as well.
