Inorganic Barrier Coatings on Paper Paid Members Public
Presented by Lindner Martina, Hochschule der Medien, Stuttgart Sustainable packaging materials are highly required and paper is prone to be used for that. However, pure paper does not fulfil all packaging requirements, such as gas barrier. One possibility to achieve a higher gas barrier, is the application of thin inorganic

Static Control for Gravure Coating Electrostatic Assist Paid Members Public
Presented by Kelly Robinson, Electrostatic Answers LLC High-quality images may be gravure printed on a variety of substrates including insulators like polyethylene (PE) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET). However, when ink transfer is poor, voids occur in printed images causing the “snowflake” defect. Electrostatic assist (ESA) for gravure coating greatly reduces
Regimes of Reverse Gravure Coating Paid Members Public
Presented by Ted Lightfoot, Ted Lightfoot LLC Gravure coating has a reputation for being unpredictable. This is largely because, beside the different configurations of gravure coating (direct, offset, reverse, kiss), there are several different regimes of coating for each configuration. The regime depends on the nature of the substrate, the
