This course provides an overview of the common paper making additives used in the industry today. Classroom sessions cover clear descriptions of how and why these additives work. Students participate in discussions focused on where additives are introduced into the papermaking process, potential interactions with both equipment and other additives, and the relationship between additives and enhanced performance of paper.
This course features exercises on the UW-Stevens Point pilot paper machine where students produce paper with different additives. Group exercises follow that evaluate the properties of this paper using typical laboratory tests. The course runs from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily with lunch and break refreshments included.
