Abstract
Mercury intrusion testing is a well established tool
which has been used extensively in the paper industry.
It is a tool that can be very powerful in giving insight
into coating structure and the final print
characteristics of a paper. The results vary widely
depending on the choice of materials used in production.
Pigment and binder choice in particular have a great
impact on coating structure, and mercury intrusion
testing can be invaluable in predicting or
troubleshooting many areas such as ink set rate and other
and
printing issues.
