Description

本発明は塗工紙およびその製造方法に関する。より詳しくは、本発明はマット調印刷用塗工紙およびその製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to coated paper and a method for producing the same. More specifically, the present invention relates to a coated paper for matte printing and a method for producing the same.

塗工紙は光沢塗工紙と艶消し塗工紙に大別される。光沢塗工紙には、従来高級印刷に用いられていたアート紙、スーパーアート紙、あるいはカタログ、パンフレットなどに用いられるコート紙等があり、印刷仕上がりが白紙光沢も印刷光沢も高いグロス調となる。艶消し塗工紙とは光沢塗工紙よりも白紙光沢や印刷光沢が低い塗工紙であり、ダル調塗工紙、マット調塗工紙がある。特にマット調塗工紙は、光沢塗工紙に比べて白紙光沢と印刷光沢の差異が大きく、印刷後の文字部が読みやすいことから、近年需要が増えている。 Coated paper is broadly divided into glossy coated paper and matte coated paper. Glossy coated paper includes art paper, super art paper, which was conventionally used for high-end printing, and coated paper, which is used for catalogs and pamphlets, etc., and the printing finish is either white gloss or glossy with high printing gloss. . Matte coated paper is a coated paper that has lower white gloss and printing gloss than glossy coated paper, and includes dull coated paper and matte coated paper. In particular, the demand for matte coated paper has been increasing in recent years because the difference between white paper gloss and printing gloss is larger than that of glossy coated paper, and the text after printing is easier to read.

一方、マット調塗工紙は光沢塗工紙に比べて表面の凹凸が大きいので、紙の表面に乗ったインキが沈み込みやすい。そのため、印刷濃度を上げるためにはインキを多めに転移させる必要がある。従って、マット調塗工紙はインキの転移量が多くなるので乾燥性が低下する傾向にある。インキの乾燥性が劣ると、印刷後の印字物を重ねた際にインキが他方に転移する「裏移り」の問題が発生しやすい。そのため、一般に、印刷物と紙との密着を防止するために澱粉等のパウダーを使用したり、重ねた後に擦れが生じないように静置したりする等の対策が取られている。特に両面印刷を行う場合は、上記「裏移り」が発生すると印刷画像が汚損され、印刷物の価値が著しく損なわれるため、片面印刷後の静置時間を長くとり、擦れても「裏移り」が発生しなくなるまでインキを乾燥させる必要がある。インキの乾燥性が劣るとこの静置時間が長くなるため、作業効率が低下する。さらに、両面印刷においては反対面に印刷を施す際に、ロール等により既に印刷された面の印刷画像が擦られるため、インキの乾燥性が劣ると印刷画像が汚損されるおそれがある。よって、印刷速度の向上や両面印刷に対応するため、インキが速やかに乾燥する性能が求められている。 On the other hand, matte coated paper has a more uneven surface than glossy coated paper, so ink on the surface of the paper tends to sink into it. Therefore, in order to increase printing density, it is necessary to transfer more ink. Therefore, since matte coated paper has a large amount of ink transfer, it tends to have poor drying properties. If the drying properties of the ink are poor, the problem of "set-off" in which the ink transfers to one printed matter after printing is likely to occur when the printed matter is stacked on top of the other. Therefore, measures are generally taken to prevent printed matter from adhering to the paper, such as using powder such as starch, or allowing the paper to stand still after stacking to prevent rubbing. Especially when performing double-sided printing, if the above-mentioned "set-off" occurs, the printed image will be stained and the value of the printed material will be significantly impaired. It is necessary to dry the ink until it no longer occurs. If the drying properties of the ink are poor, this standing time becomes longer, resulting in a decrease in work efficiency. Furthermore, in double-sided printing, when printing is performed on the opposite side, the printed image on the already printed side is rubbed by a roll or the like, so if the drying properties of the ink are poor, the printed image may be smeared. Therefore, in order to improve printing speed and support double-sided printing, there is a need for performance that allows ink to dry quickly.

さらに、塗工紙には、用紙が滑りやすくなって紙が揃わなくなり印刷機へのセットが困難になる、あるいは断裁が困難になる等の不具合を回避するために、紙の摩擦係数を調整することが検討されてきた。一般に、紙においては、動的摩擦係数は静的摩擦係数よりも小さくなることが知られている。このため、静的摩擦係数をある程度高くすれば適度に高い動的摩擦係数が得られるので、従来の技術は静的摩擦係数を調整することを主体に焦点が当てられていた。動的摩擦係数と静的摩擦係数との関係に着目した技術もあるが(例えば特許文献1)、当該技術も動的摩擦係数が静的摩擦係数よりも小さいことを前提としている。 Furthermore, in order to avoid problems such as the paper becoming slippery and becoming misaligned, making it difficult to load it into the printing machine or making it difficult to cut, the coefficient of friction of the paper must be adjusted. This has been considered. It is generally known that the dynamic friction coefficient of paper is smaller than the static friction coefficient. For this reason, since a moderately high dynamic friction coefficient can be obtained by increasing the static friction coefficient to a certain degree, conventional techniques have mainly focused on adjusting the static friction coefficient. Although there is a technique that focuses on the relationship between the dynamic friction coefficient and the static friction coefficient (for example, Patent Document 1), this technique also assumes that the dynamic friction coefficient is smaller than the static friction coefficient.

特開平08-060597号公報Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 08-060597

塗工紙の紙揃い性が悪いと裁断が困難になったり、また印刷機内で印刷用塗工紙が過度に滑りすぎると印刷不良が発生したりするが、発明者らは静的摩擦係数を高くするのみではこの不良を解決できないこと、さらにはマット調の印刷用塗工紙でこの傾向が特に高いことを見出した。そして発明者らは、塗工紙に静的摩擦係数よりも高い動的摩擦係数を付与することで、静的状態における不具合および動的状態における不具合を解消できることを見出した。以上を鑑み、本発明は、インキの乾燥性に優れ、かつ静的摩擦係数よりも高い動的摩擦係数を有する、塗工紙特にマット調印刷用塗工紙を提供することを課題とする。 Poor alignment of coated paper can make cutting difficult, and excessive slippage of coated paper in a printing machine can cause printing defects. We have found that this defect cannot be solved simply by increasing the temperature, and that this tendency is particularly high with matte coated printing paper. The inventors have discovered that by imparting a dynamic friction coefficient higher than the static friction coefficient to coated paper, problems in a static state and problems in a dynamic state can be resolved. In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide a coated paper, particularly a coated paper for matte printing, which has excellent ink drying properties and has a dynamic coefficient of friction higher than a static coefficient of friction.

Adhesives include various copolymers such as styrene/butadiene, styrene/acrylic, ethylene/vinyl acetate, butadiene/methyl methacrylate, vinyl acetate/butyl acrylate, maleic anhydride copolymers, acrylic acid/methyl acrylate, etc. Latex such as methacrylate copolymers; Polyvinyl alcohols such as fully saponified polyvinyl alcohol, partially saponified polyvinyl alcohol, carboxy-modified polyvinyl alcohol, and acetoacetyl-modified polyvinyl alcohol; Proteins such as casein, soybean protein, and synthetic protein; Oxidation Starches such as starch, positive starch, etherified starch such as urea phosphate starch, hydroxyethyl etherified starch, and dextrin; cellulose derivatives such as carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, and hydroxymethyl cellulose, and the like. These types can be used in combination.

接着剤の量は、印刷適性、塗工適性の点から、顔料100重量部に対して5~20重量部であることが好ましく、8~16重量部であることがより好ましい。接着剤の総量が20重量部を越える場合、顔料塗工液の粘度が高くなり塗工時に操業トラブルが生じ易い。さらに、インキの乾燥性が低下する傾向が見られる。一方、接着剤の総量が5重量部未満であると十分な表面強度を得にくくなる。 From the viewpoint of printability and coating suitability, the amount of adhesive is preferably 5 to 20 parts by weight, more preferably 8 to 16 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of pigment. When the total amount of the adhesive exceeds 20 parts by weight, the viscosity of the pigment coating liquid increases, and operational troubles are likely to occur during coating. Furthermore, there is a tendency for the drying properties of the ink to decrease. On the other hand, if the total amount of adhesive is less than 5 parts by weight, it becomes difficult to obtain sufficient surface strength.

本発明においては、前記物性を達成するために、全接着剤中20~55重量%のラテックスを含むことが好ましく、25~45重量%のラテックスを含むことが好ましい。また、2層以上の顔料塗工層を設けるときには、原紙から最も離れた最外顔料塗工層において、全接着剤中20~80重量%のラテックスを含むことが好ましく、25~75重量%のラテックスを含むことがさらに好ましく、25~55重量%のラテックスを含むことがより好ましい。他の接着剤としては澱粉類特に酸化澱粉やデキストリンを用いることが特に好ましい。澱粉類が好ましい理由として、ラテックスと比較すると澱粉類は顔料塗工液の保水性が高くなるため、原紙への塗工液の沈み込みが生じにくく、顔料塗工層で原紙を効果的に被覆することができる。言い換えれば、澱粉類を使用すると、顔料塗工層による原紙の被覆性が良好となる。その結果、印刷品質、特に印刷光沢度の向上と、インキ乾燥性の向上が期待できる。 In the present invention, in order to achieve the above-mentioned physical properties, the total adhesive preferably contains 20 to 55% by weight of latex, and preferably 25 to 45% by weight of latex. Furthermore, when two or more pigment coating layers are provided, the outermost pigment coating layer furthest from the base paper preferably contains 20 to 80% by weight of latex, and 25 to 75% by weight of the total adhesive. It is more preferable to contain latex, more preferably 25 to 55% by weight of latex. As the other adhesive, it is particularly preferable to use starch, especially oxidized starch and dextrin. The reason why starches are preferable is that compared to latex, starches have a higher water retention capacity for the pigment coating solution, making it difficult for the coating solution to sink into the base paper and effectively covering the base paper with the pigment coating layer. can do. In other words, the use of starches improves the coverage of the base paper with the pigment coating layer. As a result, it can be expected that print quality, especially print gloss, and ink drying properties will improve.
