Purpose
To determine the mass(g) of a cubic centimeter(cm³) of a substance.
Principle
Density is calculated from the volume and mass of a substance.
Density = mass/ volume [g/cm³]
For papers, the apparent density may be calculated directly from the gram mage mA (basis weight) and the thickness. The term “apparent density” denotes that measured volume includes voids in the paper:
Apparent density = mA/Thickness (gr/cm3)
Bulk = 1/Apparent density
The reciprocal value of density is called spesific volume(=bulk) of a paper.
If the density of paper is 1.000 g/cm³, this is interpreted as a “single volume” and a density of 0.500 g/cm³ as a “double volume” , etc.

pH Value
Purpose
The pH is determined to identify the reaction of substance which may be either acidic, neutral or alkaline. Specifically, the pH is indicative of the concetration of H+ ion present in a solution.
Principle
An acid-base electrode (pH sensitive electrode) is used to measured the pH of a suspension of the powder to be tested, or of a pulp sample in demineralized water.
For pulp samples and slurries, pH is usualy measured directly and very after the value has been preset for a given concentration.
Or the pH value of paper can be determined by:
Disintegrating the paper in hot distilled water and determining the pH of the extract.
Disintegrating the paper in cold distilled water and determining the pH of the extract.
Directly using a wet electrode on the paper surface.
These 3 methods measure different solutions and so give different
The pH value of paper can show residual acidic/alkaline chemicals in pulp, or atmospheric pollutants (e.g. SO2) in valuable paper archives.

Sizing
Purpose
Papers are sized in order to hydrophobize the material in a targeted manner, i.e. to achieve controlled liquid absorption. Originally, sizing reduces the absorbency of paper materials, while simultaneously influencing their strength-related properties like bending stiffness, braking length and tear growth resistance, as well as “rattle”-the sound made when shaking sheet of material.
Principle
In order to observe the interactions between paper and liquid, test inks are frequently applied.
Measuring techniques :
Ink stroke test : assesses the ink bleed when writing on a paper with drawing pen in a definer manner
Ink flotation sizing test : a paper specimen is floated on a writing ink and the time for ink to penetrate the paper is determined visually
Sizing test, e.g. with a PLG sizing tester : similar to the ink flotation sizing test, this tester method measures the time of ink penetration by means of a photocell
Sizing / Cobb
Because paper is composed of a randomly felted layer of fiber, it's structure has a varying degree of porosity. Thus, the ability of fluids, both liquid and gaseous, to penetrate the structure of paper becomes a property that is both highly significant to the use of paper. The need to limit the spreading of ink resulted in "sizing" the paper with gelatinous vegetable materials which had the effect of sealing or filling the surface pores. Later, the term "sizing" was applied to the treatment of paper stock prior to the formation of the sheet, with water-repellent materials such as rosin or wax. Resistance towards the penetration of aqueous solution / water is measured by Sizing or Cobb values.
The surface water absorption over 60 seconds, expressed in g/m2, measured by Cobb Test. The procedural Standards are explained in TAPPI T 441.

System Zeta Potential
Purpose
All Particles present in liquid normally take on electrostatic surface charges that generate a charge cloud centered on the particles. The total potential different present in this charge cloud is termed equilibrium potential. The zeta potential is associated with the outer diffuse double layer, which is may be deformed as the particle move. This double layer is largely responsible for the stability of stock suspension or slurries and pay a decisive role in papermaking operations.
Principle
The zeta potential is determined by measuring the velocity of motion of the charged particles in an electric field.

Grammage/Basis weight
Purpose
Paper and paperboard are manufactured and traded by grammage, which is a vital quality characteristic. The grammage or basis weight of a paper is expressed in grams per square meter
The Basis weight of paper is the weight per unit area. This can be expressed as the weight in grams per square meter (GSM or g/M2), pounds per 1000 sq. ft. or weight in Kgs or pounds per ream (500 sheets) of a specific size. Paper is sold by weight but the buyer is interested in area of paper. The basis weight is what determines, how much area the buyer gets for a given weight. e.g. if basis weight is 50 g/m2, for every 1 kg weight, the buyer gets 20 m2. When the basis weight is expressed as ream weight, it tells the buyers how many reams he/she getting for a given weight. For papermaker basis weight is important from point of view of production rate. For a given machine deckle and machine speed, the production rate per day in MT will be = Machine Deckle (m) * Machine Speed (m/min) * Basis Weight (g/M2) * 1440/1000000.
Principle
For grammature determination, specimens measuring 10 x10 cm are cut from climatized paper samples and weighed. The reading are converted to correspond to an area of 1 m².

Porosity tester
Purpose
Because paper is composed of a randomly felted layer of fiber, it follows that the structure has a varying degree of porosity. Thus, the ability of fluids, both liquid and gaseous, to penetrate the structure of paper becomes a property that is both highly significant to the use of paper. Paper is a highly porous material and contains as much as 70% air.
Principle
Porosity is a highly critical factor in Printing Papers Laminating Paper, Filter Paper, Cigarette Paper. Bag Paper, Anti-tarnish Paper and Label Paper. Porosity is the measurement of the total connecting air voids, both vertical and horizontal, that exists in a sheet. Porosity of sheet is an indication of absorptive or the ability of the sheets to accept ink or water.
How to use
Prepare paper sample
Take inside part of the cylinder and put on the buffer
Turn handle to stretch up sample clippers
Put in paper sample, and turn handle on to clip up both head surface sample on to tide

IGT tester
Purpose
IGT is a measurement of the surface strength of the paper.
Principle
A tacky ink is applied to sample of the paper at an increasing speed. As the speed increases the peeling force applied to the paper also increases and the speed at which the fibers begin to be pulled from the sheet is recorded as the IGT. A high IGT (>300) indicates a strong surface strength suitable for demanding offset applications.

Roughness (Sheffield Method): This test is an indirect measure of paper smoothness or roughness. It is a measurement of air flow between the specimen (backed by flat glass on the bottom side) and two pressurized, concentric annular lands that are impressed in to the sample from top.
How to use
Turn on the power switch of the tester
Check and enter the measuring date on the display (of the operation panel)
Warm up the control devices of the tester for 15 minutes(in normal atmosphere) or 45 minutes(in cold atmosphere)
See table 1 to select a suitable backing. using air or methyl alcohol, clean the backing surface(the lower measuring head for air permeability), make sure that the surface is free from dirt, dust, damage, the place the backing in the ID (inner diameter)of lifting cylinder(off white).
Remove the protection cover of the roughness or permeability measuring head, clean with air or methyl alcohol the portion which comes in contact with the specimen. Be sure that the portion is free from dirt, dust, damage, then insert the head into the notch in the head holder, with the head upper flange being horizontal.
Be sure that the compressed air pressure at the sources is 4.5 kg/sq cm or more, and open the sluice valve
Press the manual start key to check the clamp for smooth climbing under the clamping initial pressure.
After calibrating check the data of the measuring head pressure and clamping pressure, check the data on the display to judge whether it is necessary to change the entered data such as
measuring conditions
Insert the specimen under the measuring head with the surface to be tested facing upwards, so that the surface may receive the light of photoelectric switch(Infrared LED)
one second after, the specimen is automatically clamped and the measurement begin
After the time setting, the result of the measurement is display and the clamping is released.
For continuous measurement , move the measuring spot of the specimen immediately.
If the specimen detected continuously by the photoelectric switch, the specimen is clamped again automatically 3 second after the end of the previous measurement, to start the second measurement.
For measurement of compressibility, the roughness is measured with the lower clamping pressure, then with the high pressure
If there is any abnormal state during the measurement, delete by pressing the del key and specifying the measurement No. for the message “quit test”
If the measurement is continued for a long span time, dust or paper powder would stick to the measurement head or backing surface. clean it. Wait 2 to 3 second before restarting the measurement
Check the measurement on the display, if OK, press ‘YES” key to perform statistic processing by computer(average, maximum, minimum, standard deviation, variation coefficient) to show the result on the display
If the specimen detected continuously by the photoelectric switch, the specimen is clamped again automatically 3 second after the end of the previous measurement, to start the second measurement.

Thickness (caliper) tester
Purpose
Thickness is a key characteristic of paper material with paper of identical grammage, a higher thickness goes hand in hand with enhanced stiffness and elasticity and the superior printability and opacity level. Additionally, increased thickness or caliper reduces printing ink strike-through and show-through
Principle
Thickness or Caliper of paper is measured with a micrometer as the perpendicular distance between two circular, plane, parallel surfaces under a pressure of 1 kg./ cm2.Since paper is an elastic material, thickness measurement are performed with a mechanical caliper under a defined load per unit area. The measured thickness value is indicated in (µm)
How to use
Prepare paper sample as necessary
Lift up the clipper with turn round the screw (up-down handle)
Fill in paper sample and Released screw (up-down handle)
Read the tester result on showing needle and wrote
Do it couple time with different space point

Stiffness tester
STIFFNESS TESTER
Purpose
To determine the resistance of a paper material to a bending stress-measured as bending moment
This instrument is used to determine the flexural resistance of paper or paperboard, the stiffness of fibrous material, the limpness of flabbiness of paper and the softness of tissue.
For the purpose of this method the term used are defined as follow :
Rigidity(its property of resisting an applied bending force, its flexural resistance).
Rigidity factor(a measure of this rigidity of this structure of this sheet proportional to modulus of elasticity). Stiffness(the ability to support its own weight).Softness(the feeling of softness when a sheet is cramped).
Principle
Two different principles are commonly applied in the industry to measure the bending stiffness
Beam method. For a rigidly clamped paper strip, the deflection caused by a defined perpendicular load on the paper surface is determined.
Resonance stiffness test method
The resonance stiffness tester vibrates one end of a clamped paper strip at a constant frequency.
The test span is varied until the vibration amplitude reaches a maximum. The test span at the point
How to use
Prepare paper sample with measuring size 70mm x 50mm or more
Open up the cover tester to make it easier when sample put in.
Put in the sample between roll with vertical side and then close the cover back.
If the sample down to right, move the switch to right, then run motor until the sample down back to the left and then stop.(watch the needle, to see value degree )
If value degree of the sample measured are same right and left more than 90º, Short cut the sample. On the other hand if less length up the sample.
Repeated test again until get an amount degree right side and left side sample are = 90º
Measures cm length of sample with scale
Report count
The rigidity, rigidity factor, stiffness, or softness in such direction are calculated as follow :
Rigidity = L³ W/10.000
Rigidity factor = L³ W /100 T³
Stiffness = L³ /100
Stiffness = (106 l log (t +1))/ L³W
Where :
L = Average critical length (cm)
W = Basis weight (g/m²)
T = Thickness (mil)
t = basis thickness of a single sheet
of creped paper (mil)

screaming out your name
screaming out your name
I just hold my hand...i close my ears
when they screaming out your name ...ya your name
on that night when everything so dark
and the games you'd play, you would always win ...seems like hate and betrayed
all the things you'd say, they were never true
I knew that was the last time
until you kissed my lips and you saved me
i can't help myself from looking for you.
i am just close my eyes and lay on the door
feeling guilty at the same time with honor....(in silent)
