Paperboard material with expanded polymeric microspheres

摘要

The present invention is related to a paperboard product having a basis weight in a range of 100 to 350 pounds per 3,000 square feet. The paperboard comprises at least one coated surface suitable for printing. The at least one coated surface comprising cellulosic fibers and from about 0.05 to about 0.5 wt. % dry basis expanded synthetic polymer microspheres based on total weight of the of cellulosic fiber dispersed thereof. The coated surface has a Parker smoothness less than about 2.0 and a Hagerty/Sheffield smoothness not less than about 20 Sheffield units.
