| Abstract | Coating color and coated paper were produced by using ammonia zirconium carbonate, potassium zirconium carbonate and glyxoal as insolubilizer. Composition of pigments, kaolin and GCC, was varied from formulations. 100% kaolin, 100% GCC and 50% kaolin together with 50% GCC were used in this experiment. On the other hand, SB latex was used with CMC as binder in formulations as well as SB latex and starch used as mixed binders. Brookfield viscosity and water retaining ability and surface properties of coated paper were examined. The results show that changing the dose of AZC and the type of insolubilizers had various effects on coating color and coated paper, except the brightness. Increasing the dose of AZC, water retention increased as well as the Brookfield viscosity. Of the insolubilizers, glyoxal showed the lowest water holding ability. At the same time, change of composition of pigments and binders also affected the properties of coating color and coated paper. Results also indicate that change of composition of pigment and had much bigger effect on properties of coating color and coated paper. |
