A theory on EEM's yellowing

2006-11-16 by Richard Smallfield

Hi,
I have done quite a bit of reading about paper in the last 24 hours. I noted that one expert (I forget who) said that the paper their company made had a substrate as close as possible to the colour of the coating.

EEM has a very yellow substrate and I am wondering if what is happening is that that colour shows through as the OBA deteriorates - and whether the paper will stabilise more the closer the colour gets to the colour on the back.

Just a thought.

Richard

   "Good name in man and woman, dear my lord, 
   Is the immediate jewel of their souls:
   Who steals my purse steals trash...
   But he that filches from me my good name
   Robs me of that which not enriches him,
   And makes me poor indeed.
   --Shakespeare, Othello, III:3
