Synthesis, characterisation and application of TiO 2 nanopowders as special paper coating pigment
TiO 2 nanopigments in two pure crystallographic forms (anatase and rutile) have been synthesised successfully by two methods; hydrothermal and hydrolysis. The produced pigments from the two methods were investigated physicochemically by several analyses tools. Then they were applied in paper coating mixtures and their influence on coated paper properties was systematically investigated. Samya El- Sherbiny • Fatma Morsy • Marwa Samir • Osama A. Fouad S.

The Paper Industry Technical Association (PITA) is an independent organisation which operates for the general benefit of its members – both individual and corporate – dedicated to promoting and improving the technical and scientific knowledge of those working in the UK pulp and paper industry. Formed in 1960, it serves the Industry, both manufacturers and suppliers, by providing a forum for members to meet and network; it organises visits, conferences and training seminars that cover all aspects of papermaking science. It also publishes the prestigious journal Paper Technology and the PITA Annual Review , both sent free to members, and a range of other technical publications which include conference proceedings and the acclaimed Essential Guide to Aqueous Coating .
