We recommend our JT 300 & JAIKAR grades for this industry.

JT 300 if softest talc with high brightness whereas JAIKAR is a economical product with equally high degree of softness

Our JT 300 & JAIKAR grade are profoundly used in the pulp, paper and board industry, as a pitch control agent and a runnability aid, a coating pigment in both rotogravure and offset, and a functional filler. In certain speciality papers, e.g. coloured papers, labels, JT 300 & JAIKAR special properties help to improve quality and productivity.

The paper industry is the largest consumer of JT300. It is used as a filler to give smoothness, porosity and opacity to paper in addition to reducing the cost. During the paper making process, the micro impurities can clog the paper machinery. JT 300 & JAIKAR being hydrophobic absorbs these micro droplets thus controlling their stickiness and avoiding clogging. High brightness of JT 300 & JAIKARleads to reduction in usage of expensive whitening agents and helps in controlling gloss of the coat. Additionally, JT 300 & JAIKAR reduces the friction on paper manufacturing machinery thus reducing wear.

 Gravure

• fillers and coating pigments significantly improve quality in coated and printing process.
• lower paper surface friction and strengthen resistance to breaks during reel changes, thereby significantly improving productivity at the printers.
• The print benefits also allow the increased usage of high brightness pigments including calcium carbonate in coating formulations in paper mills operating under alkaline conditions.
• They give low high shear viscosity, allowing higher solids and improved fiber coverage, especially important for catalogues

 Offset Coating

• products improve the quality of the printed surface by overcoming ink scuff encountered with coated papers containing high levels of calcium carbonate.
• JT 300 & JAIKARprovide a silky feel to the matt paper, thereby enhancing reader comfort and touch.
• plant productivity, reducing specific energy demand and plant discharge.
• significantly improves paper machine and printing press runnability while improving paper quality.
• reduces stickies deposits in recycled paper production and keeps the process 'clean', resulting in superior paper quality.

• enables the amount of chemicals to be reduced on paper machines, thus improving cost-effectiveness.

• As natural, inert mineral, JT 300 & JAIKARgrades bring environment-friendly benefits to the paper process.

 Speciality Applications

• effective extenders, improving TiO2 retention and performance.
• As filler, they accelerate water drainage in the paper machine wet-end and impart good cross-sectional strength to paper.
• JT 300 & JAIKARalso reduce the risk of white pitch
• JT 300 & JAIKARoleophilic properties mean lower dye demand and improved colour intensity.
• JT 300 & JAIKARsoftness imparts good folding properties to paper board, making the sheet less abrasive on cutters and other converting equipment. This is equally important for labels and self-copy paper.

 Runnability

The pure, soft JT 300 & JAIKAR reduce paper surface friction, thereby alleviating core burst and crepe wrinkle problems and improving runnability in the rotogravure printing process.

 Printability

 Productivity

 Ink scuff resistance

 Print mottle reduction

 Barrier effect

 Pitch control

Hydrophobic JT 300 & JAIKARgrades, with high specific surface, permanently adsorb organic contaminants, which reduces the deposition of pitch in the pulp Process.
