Functional Coatings. Coating operations during converting are similar in principle to the on-machine and off-machine pigment coating operations carried out in the paper mill ... A common objective with functional non-aqueous coatings is to provide a barrier to water, water vapor, air, or grease. Typical coating materials include waxes, asphalt, lacquer, varnish, resins and adhesives.

Le couchage fonctionnel. Les opérations de couchage au cours de la transformation [du papier et du carton] sont identiques à celles du couchage sur machine et hors machine mises en œuvre dans les papeteries [...] On dépose cependant des couches non aqueuses d'un produit servant à assurer une fonction particulière (plutôt que des couches de pigments en suspension dans l'eau); la couche a pour objet d'empêcher la pénétration de l'eau, de la vapeur d'eau, de l'air ou des graisses. Les produits de couchage sont des cires, du bitume, des laques, des vernis, des résines et des colles.
