Analysis of the effect of porosity and pigment shape on the stiffness of coating layers
P. Lepoutre,M. Rigdahl +1 more
TL;DR: The elastic modulus of paper coating layers made of mineral pigments and containing 9% by weight of a synthetic binder was measured at 23°C as discussed by the authors, and the corresponding values of void-free coatings were evaluated using a model proposed by Bert which also accounts for the effect of stress concentrations due to the presence of the voids.
