CONT

Nous avons parlé précédemment du calandrage [...] Pour bien des sortes de papiers, on peut obtenir un degré de lissé suffisant avec des pinces que forment des rouleaux en acier. Cependant, si on cherche à rendre la surface lisse et glacée sans compacter excessivement le papier, il faut utiliser un autre type de calandrage. Des calandres à satiner sont parfois utilisées sur machine, pour le traitement des cartons; mais dans la plupart des cas, il n'existe pas de technique qui permette de remplacer de façon satisfaisante le supercalandrage.
