Advantages: Anilox 40 provides the paper maker Improved print ability and pigment coating Improved brightness, smoothness Improved surface strength and provides hold out of printing inks. Properties Has good paste stability, clarity and reduced tendency to retrograde. Has lower pasting temperature. Provides tough, clear and flexible films. Pastes are more stable to salts and hard water than pastes of cationic or anionic starches. Typical Analysis Colour: White Powder Moisture: Maximum 12% Ash: Maximum 3% Cold water solubles: Not more than 5 % Viscosity at 75o C,: 8 - 12 CS 20 % w/w paste, Ostwald viscometer Appearance of 20% (w/w): Fluid, no phase seperation on storage for paste 24 hours at 300 C Brightness on AIMIL: Not less than 92% Application The use of Anilox 40 in size solutions of high solids to seal pores, tie down loose surface, fibers, improve surface strength and to provide hold out printing inks. A higher concentration than acid thinned starches can be used for better finish of printing paper. Solutions of Anilox 40 are clearer than those of acid thinned starches  and have less setback. Preparation Anilox 40 is slurried in cold water till free of lumps at desired solids. The slurry can be cooked either by direct steam injection or in jacketed cooker, along with agitation to 950oC for about 20 minutes.
