Paper coating Lubricant |

NOPCOTE
DC-100 is an ammonium stearate dispersion widely used because of its
ease of application and versatility. A highly fluid liquid, it is readily
incorporated into the coating formula wdh~ predispersion. NOPCOTE DC-100
A lubricates the coating, improves its levelling characteristics and
minimises dusting.
NOPCOTE
DC-100 A also enhances the water repellency, smoothness and printability
of coatings in which it is employed. It lubricates the dry coating thereby
reducing dusting at the calender stacks and during printing. NOPCOTE
DC-100 A increases the thixotropic properties of coatings and improves
the water-holding properties of the coating in the wet state. |
