Papers that are intended for print rotations must fulfill certain criteria of mechanical resistance since they are exposed to various stresses during press. The most important mechanical property that paper for printing rotations must satisfy is tear resistance, i.e., encumber to tow. Tear resistance is more pronounced in the longitudinal direction of the fiber flow, i.e. in the direction of winding stripes of paper, which is also the direction of the press. In addition to this property, it is important that papers are resistant to splitting i.e., the shear that usually occurs at the site of a damaged side strips of paper. From this follows that the resistance to splitting is pronounced in the transverse direction of fiber flow i.e. perpendicular to the direction of printing of rolls. In addition to these important mechanical properties, it is very important that papers for printing rotations do not have too much weight and thickness. These requirements are particularly important for coated paper where coating contributes to the increase of weight and thickness, and this is a precisely the case with papers for printing revue. The thesis will examine the mechanical and other properties of a number of different coated papers for printing revue and point out their differences and peculiarities.
