A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11965291B2) discloses a packaging paper made of unbleached kraft paper with specific characteristics. The base paper, comprising at least 90% primary pulp, has a kappa value between 38 and 60, a basis weight of 60-150 g/m2, and air resistance of 5-30 seconds. The primary pulp must contain 80% pulp with a fiber length of 2.0-2.9 mm and less than 4.5% fillers, along with cationic starch. The paper's elongation at break in the machine direction should be 2.5-8.5%, with a Bendtsen roughness of 70-600 ml/min.
Furthermore, the patent includes a process for producing this packaging paper, involving creping the base material in a Clupak plant to achieve the required elongation at break, followed by drying and calendering. The resulting paper should have specific characteristics such as Bendtsen roughness, basis weight, and air resistance. Coating with materials like Polyethylene or Polypropylene is optional, with specific guidelines on the amount to be applied. The process also details the calendering and coating steps, emphasizing the importance of meeting the specified parameters for the final product's quality and performance.
