Paper & Pulp

Sliding your fingertips over a simple sheet of coated paper reveals after a few moments: talc is involved here. Cellulose products such as towels, packaging or modern disposable dishes also acquire their characteristic physical properties not least through talc from AIHAI. Mainly used for modification in the production of paper and cellulose, talc can do a lot more: as a filler, it provides special characteristics of demanding paper types and improves the haptic and technical profiles of the end products thanks to binding properties, as well as the high lamellarity, especially in recycling processes.

TECHNOLOGY PROVIDES A GENTLE TOUCH.

Universal smoothing agent at its best.

Neutralisation through talc.

Pitch control & paper coating

Due to its highly lipophilic and planar structure, AIHAI talc is utilised in pitch control and it serves as a de-inking substance, in order to inhibit the organic impurification of the pulp as well as keeping the recycled paper from agglomerating.

As a matter of fact, its highly lipophilic and planar composition even works to neutralise remaining adhesive resiny bits, preventing any kind of re-agglomeration.
Contrary to substituting chemicals, talc particles remain in the paper or are washed out in the process, without polluting the process water.

Excellent processability granted by talc.

Paper coating

In paper coating, talc takes on multiple roles. In virtue of its lamellarity and softness, it gives the required degree of mattness and processability to the paper and cuts down possible ink abrasion while printing.

Keeps moisture at bay.

For the technology between the fibres.

Due to its multiple properties, such as lamellarity, softness, being hydrophobic and its plain surface, AIHAI talc can be utilised in the food packaging industry as it works wonders when it comes to water vapour. AIHAI talc used as a paper filler enhances the smoothness of the paper and its water retention barrier, as it decreases the porosity of the material.
