New or Revised Standards, TIPs, and Useful Methods
TAPPI Technical Information Papers (TIPs) recently published: TIP 0404-33 Dryer Section Performance Monitoring (Revised) Special thanks to the SSIG members below for being the Working Group Chairs in the recently published reviews of TAPPI Standards: Matt Beach - TIP 0404-33 - TIP 0404-07 The TAPPI Standards Department would also like to express its gratitude to all volunteers who participated in the review of those Standards as SSIG members. Special note: Documents appearing in the TAPPI online version of the Standards and TIPs are updated once a month (usually around the 15th). So it is possible that there is a delay between the publication announcement and the posting online. If you are a subscriber to the online access to Standards and TIPs and you are in a hurry for new documents that have not yet been posted, you can send a request for TIPs to tip@tappi.org or for Standards to standards@tappi.org. TAPPI Standards in Ballot
Listed below are TAPPI Standards that have recently gone out for ballot to the corresponding Standard-Specific Interest Group (SSIG). The date in parentheses is the closing date for voting. The TAPPI Standards regulations require public review of standards that are up for ballot. Send a message to standards@tappi.org if you want to request a copy of the draft in ballot. If you would like to participate on any SSIGs to review and vote on Standards, please click here or contact standards@tappi.org.

STAR of the Month
T 582 pm-22: High Shear Capillary Viscosity of Coating Color on Paper and Paperboard Rod and blade coating with roll or jet application, film transfer coating and curtain coating are the most used techniques for paper or paperboard coating at high speeds. Coating colors are subjected to high stresses on all coaters, and shear rates can be at 500,000 1/s or higher. Therefore, this new standard method can be used for simulations of different coaters to help papermakers optimize blade pressures, coat weights and raw materials in order to avoid or solve runnability problems caused by coating colors. Capillary viscosity data has proven to predict accurately coater runnability problems, which are based on rheological behaviors of coating colors. As a result, capillary viscosity can be used at paper and paperboard mills on daily basis as a prescreening device on different recipes before applying then on high-speed blade, rod or transfer coaters. No such previous test method or standard existed before. Publishing date: January 24th, 2022 Purchasing link: https://imisrise.tappi.org/TAPPI/Products/01/T/0104T582.aspx
