TAPPI T 816 — Static COF of Paper: Uses, Importance, & Industry Value

/ / Published in Science and Research, TAPPI Test Standards

Paper and paperboard products need the right amount of friction to work properly in your packaging and printing operations. Too much friction causes jamming and tearing, while too little friction leads to slipping and misalignment. TAPPI T 816 measures the static coefficient of friction (COF) of paper and paperboard using a simple inclined plane method…
