Publication Open Access Effect of coating pigment type on paper printability with water-based inks(2022-07-01) ÖZCAN, ARİF; SÖNMEZ, SİNAN; TUTAK, DOĞAN; ÖZCAN A., SÖNMEZ S., TUTAK D.Nowadays, the need for papers and cardboards with improved surface properties is increasing with the development of the packaging industry. The improvements made are not only limited to the paper and paper surface, but also environmentalist approaches are exhibited in printing ink. For this purpose, the use of water-based ink tends to become widespread, especially in food packaging. In this study, five different paper coating formulations were prepared using different proportions of precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) and kaolin pigments. Latex (Acronal S360D) was used as a binder. All prepared coating mixes were applied onto the base paper surface. All coated papers were also subjected to the calendering process. In addition, three different dyestuffs (14, 17, 20%) concentrations of water-based printing inks were prepared. Prints were made by the silk screen printing technique on the calendered-coated papers. The optical and physical properties (roughness, air permeance, paper gloss and printing gloss, contact angle and surface energy) of all papers were measured according to the standards. Paper gloss, print gloss, Delta E-00 color differences, contact angles and surface energy measurements were made, and the effects of dye ratio on printing and gloss in water-based inks and coating type suitable for printability were investigated. As a result, papers can be coated and even calendered to achieve better paper surface properties and printability. In the case of printing with water-based inks, better printability properties are obtained by choosing PCC pigmented coated papers.Publication Open Access Production and printing of solvent-based fluorescent ink for using in anti-counterfeiting documents(2022-01-01) ÖZCAN, ARİF; Kandirmaz E. A., ÖZCAN A.© 2022 Authors.Security inks are used in areas such as money, expensive products, identity cards, passports. Generally, they are more expensive than conventional inks. A good security ink is expected to be fairly inexpensive and non-replicable. Pigments used in security ink are usually produced from rare earth elements. It is very difficult to produce ink from rare earth elements and high performance ink carrier systems are needed. There is no need for special carrier systems to produce ink from organic fluorescent pigments, and they allow cheaper ink production while reducing reproducibility. In this study, it is aimed to produce ink using organic-based fluorescent pigment. For this purpose, solvent-based ink formulations containing commercial solvent based organic fluorescent blue pigment in different ratios were prepared with polyurethane resin. The prepared inks were printed on the paper surface with the inkjet printing system. The colour properties of the prints obtained were determined under daylight and UV light. In addition, the gloss, adhesion, abrasion resistance, light fastness and drying times of the prints were determined. As a result, it has been determined that the ink produced is transparent in daylight, has a blue glow in UV light and can be used as a security ink in valuable documents.Publication Metadata only The effect of paper coatings containing biopolymer binder and different natural pigments on printability(De Gruyter Open Ltd, 2021) ÖZCAN, ARİF; Arman Kandirmaz E., Ozcan A., Ural E.Paper is an environmentally friendly, recyclable material whose main material is cellulose, which can be obtained from all kinds of trees and plants, used as writing, printing and packaging material. Due to its structural properties, papers are not resistant to temperature and humidity, as well as problems with ink transfer with its porous structure and experienced negative printability properties. In recent years, especially the growth of the packaging industry has increased the demand for papers with improved printability properties. In order to obtain better printability properties from papers, some processes can be performed in paper production, as well as some surface treatments after production. These processes are paper coating, sizing and calendering. Paper coatings are generally water-dispersed coating solutions with one or more pigments, binders and certain additives to improve the desired properties. With these processes, by filling the gaps between the pores of the paper, a shapely and smooth surface is obtained and good printability is obtained together with the optical and physical properties of the papers. In this study, the interactions and printability properties of different types of pigments with xanthan gum binder were investigated by preparing paper coating formulations using calcium carbonate, barite and talc pigments and xanthan gum as binder. As a result, xanthan is a good coating binder and CaCO3 from the compared pigments is the most suitable compared to the other 2 pigments, considering all the studied areas. © 2021 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston.Publication Metadata only The effect of paper surface-coating pigments and binders on colour gamut and printing parameters(WILEY, 2021) ÖZCAN, ARİF; Ozcan, Arif; Tutak, DoganOne of the most important factors affecting the printing quality of printing processes is the surface structure of the printing material. The surface structure of the paper formed by fibres can be modified and smoothed out using coatings that make it more suitable for printing. In this study, three different types of coating pigments were prepared and applied onto an 80 g/m(2) base paper surface. Styrene butadiene latex and polyvinyl alcohol were used as binders, and three different types of pigments, precipitated calcium carbonate, clay and zeolite, were used as pigments in the prepared coatings. The physical and optical properties of all calendered and non-calendered papers were measured and compared. All the prints were produced with an ink-jet digital printing machine upon the coated and calendered papers for recording the printability parameters. The Delta E-00 differences between colours, tone values, colour gamuts and colour gamut volumes were measured from the surfaces of the printed papers. The results showed that the coating type had a better effect on print quality, and that the printability properties of coated papers and even calendered papers were very good.Publication Metadata only The effect of zeolite on inkjet coated paper surface properties and deinking(WALTER DE GRUYTER GMBH, 2020) ÖZCAN, ARİF; Ozcan, Arif; Tutak, DoganCoatings are generally applied for opacity, smoothness and gloss on the paper surface. Pigments such as CaCO3, Kaolin-Clay and Zeolite are used, and natural or synthetic binders are used. In this study, coatings using the CaCO3, Kaolin-Clay and Zeolite pigments on 80 gr/m(2) high grade papers were made. PVOH was used as binder. Following coating, papers were processed through supercalendering and printed with inkjet printer. Using INGEDE method 11p. recycling process printed papers were deinked. The optical properties of the recycled papers obtained after the deinking treatment, were compared with the unprinted papers. At the end of the study, the effect of coating on paper surface and the recycling performances of the inkjet printed papers were revealed. It was determined that the papers in which zeolite was used as a pigment were better, in terms of both surface properties and recycling performance when surface properties and recycling performance of coated papers were examined. When all the results were compared, it was found that the performances of coatings for which zeolite was used were much better than coatings such as CaCO3 and Kaolin-Clay, both in terms of surface coating properties such as opacity, roughness and gloss and recycling results such as brightness.Publication Metadata only Antibacterial effect of Ag nanoparticles into the paper coatings(WALTER DE GRUYTER GMBH, 2019) ÖZCAN, ARİF; Kandirmaz, Emine Arman; Ozcan, ArifFood packaging is the most important output of the printing industry. Giving antibacterial effect to the papers used in food packaging will extend the shelf life of the product and food transfer in healthier conditions. The nanoparticles with known antibacterial activity are nanosilver, nanogold, nanosilica. Binders used in paper coating provide a good nutrient medium for bacteria. In this study, Ag nanoparticles was first synthesized as monodisperse in 10 nm size with polyvinyl pyrrolidone and sodium boron reaction which will give antibacterial properties to paper coatings. The chemical structure of the synthesized Ag nanoparticles is illuminated by fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR). Different paper coating formulations containing varying amounts of Ag nanoparticles were prepared with starch binder. Using these mixtures; papers coated with a laboratory-type paper coating machine onto 80 g/m(2) paper. Color, gloss, contact angle, surface energy, antibacterial properties of the paper against the E. coli bacteria and S. aureus bacteria were examined. As a result, Ag nanoparticles has been successfully synthesized and used in paper coating. Antibacterial and printability properties were improved by increasing the amount of Ag nanoparticles.Publication Open Access Chitosan-titanium nanoparticle coated papers for active packaging(2023-11-01) ÖZCAN, ARİF; ARMAN KANDIRMAZ, EMİNE; ÖZCAN A., ARMAN KANDIRMAZ E., Acar Buyukpehlivan G.In this study, it was aimed to increase the antimicrobial properties by combining chitosan and titanium nanoparticles. First, titanium nanoparticles were synthesized by sol-gel method and nanoparticles were modified with thiol groups. The chitosan has been modified with allyl glycidyl ether. Both obtained molecules were linked to each other by a thiol-ene click reaction. The chemical structure of the obtained chitosan modified titanium nanoparticles was elucidated by ATR-FTIR. Paper coating formulations were prepared by using the produced nanoparticles and hydroxy ethyl cellulose at different rates and applied on the base paper. Color, gloss, surface energy, contact angle, air permeability properties of the papers were determined by spectrophotometer, glossmeter, goniometer and L&W air permeability device, respectively. Screen prints were made on coated papers and their printability properties were examined. Antimicrobial properties of titanium nanoparticles, chitosan and chitosan modified titanium nanoparticles were determined against E. coli and S. aureus by disk diffusion method. As a result, it has been determined that both titanium and chitosan have antimicrobial properties against both bacterial species separately and the produced chitosan modified titanium nanoparticles increase this antimicrobial property more having a synergetic effect. It has been concluded that the produced antimicrobial papers have a high upside to be active packaging printing material.Publication Metadata only pH-controlled lavender oil capsulation with ABA-type block copolymer and usage in paper coating(WILEY, 2020) ÖZCAN, ARİF; Kandirmaz, Emine Arman; Birtane, Hatice; Cigil, Asli Beyler; Ozcan, ArifThe aim of this study is to produce a lavender oil capsules with triblock copolymer and to use these capsules for providing scented paper. Thus, polyethylene oxide-polypropylene glycol-polyethylene oxide (PEO-b-PPG-b-PEO) ABA-type block copolymer was synthesized by means of Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization and the chemical structure of PEO-b-PPG-b-PEO was characterized by ATR-FTIR and H-1-NMR. Moreover, block ratio of the PEO-b-PPG-b-PEO was identified with H-1-NMR. Lavender oil was encapsulated in the polymer by micellization of interactions between hydrophilic-lipophilic-hydrophilic polymer and oil. These interactions include lavender oil and lipophilic block interaction and oil-hydrophilic group repulsion. In addition, hydrophilic groups interacted with water to keep the micelles suspended. The critical micelle concentration and size of the micelles were analysed with SEM. Decomposition of capsules was determined by UV spectroscopy with respect to pH change. Paper coating formulations were prepared with fragrant capsules and coated on paper with laboratory-type coating machine. The colour and gloss of obtained papers were determined by spectrophotometer and glossmeter. As a result, PEO-b-PPG-b-PEO polymer can be used to encapsulate lavender oil, and the resulting capsules have functioned without degradation in the paper coating.Publication Open Access Printability of variative nanocellulose derived papers(SPRINGER, 2021-05) ÖZCAN, ARİF; Ozcan, Arif; Tozluoglu, Ayhan; Arman Kandirmaz, Emine; Tutus, Ahmet; Fidan, HakanThe printability properties of the paper can be increased by some processes applied to the surface. The use of non-recyclable materials derived from petroleum is decreasing day by day, and the demand for recyclable materials obtained from renewable sources is increasing. These materials include cellulose derivatives, starch types and polyvinyl alcohol. The materials ratios, sizes, physical and chemical properties of these materials used in the processes applied to the paper and the content of the paper will affect the strength of the paper as well as change the surface properties and significantly affect the printability. The aim of this study is to obtain better printability properties by improving the paper surface with CNF/CNF-OX coating. In this study, fluting and core board papers coated with different amounts of cellulose nanofiber (CNF)/cellulose nanofiber-oxidized (CNF-OX) were produced. Surface properties, contact angle, surface energy, color and gloss of the produced papers were measured by optical microscope, goniometer, spectrophotometer and glossmeter. The papers were printed with the IGT C1 offset printability tester. As a result, in terms of printability, it was determined that CNF/CNF-OX coated papers have smoother surfaces and give better results in terms of both gloss properties and printability.
