GENERAL In the Explanatory Notes to this Chapter, except where the context otherwise requires, a reference to "paper" includes references to paperboard (irrespective of thickness or weight). Paper consists essentially of the cellulosic fibres of the pulps of Chapter 47 felted together in sheet form. Many products, such as certain tea-bag materials, consist of a mixture of these cellulose fibres and of textile fibres (in particular man-made fibres as defined in Note 1 to Chapter 54). Where the textile fibres predominate by weight, the products are not regarded as paper and are classified as nonwovens (heading 56.03). To avoid discrepancies which can result from the use of different methods, it is highly desirable that all administrations use the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) test methods to determine the physical properties of paper and paperboard of Chapter 48. Whenever the following analytical and physical criteria are mentioned throughout this Chapter, the ISO Standards listed below should be used : Ash Content : ISO 2144 Paper and board - - Determination of ash Brightness : ISO 2470 Paper and board - - Measurement of diffuse blue reflectance factor (ISO brightness) Bursting strength and burst index : ISO 2758 Paper - - Determination of bursting strength ISO 2759 Board - - Determination of bursting strength CMT 60 (crush resistance) : ISO 7263 Corrugating medium - - Determination of the flat crush resistance after laboratory fluting Fibre composition : ISO 9184/1-3 Paper, board and pulps - - Fibre furnish analysis Grammage (weight) : ISO 536 Paper and board - - Determination of grammage Parker Print-Surf surface roughness : ISO 8791/4 Paper and board - - Determination of roughness/smoothness (air leak methods) Single sheet thickness (caliper) : ISO 534 Paper and board - - Determination of thickness and apparent bulk density or apparent sheet density Tearing resistance : ISO 1974 Paper - - Determination of tearing resistance (Elmendorf method) Tensile strength and stretch : ISO 1924/2 Paper and board - - Determination of tensile properties - - Part 2 : Constant rate of elongation method. The manufacture of paper, whether by machine or by hand, may be considered as being in three stages, the preparation of the pulp, formation of the sheet or web, and finishing. PREPARATION OF THE PULP The pulp is prepared by blending if necessary, mixing with fillers, size, or colouring matter as required, and reduction to a suitable consistency by dilution in water and mechanical beating. The fillers, which are generally of inorganic origin (e.g., kaolin (China clay), titanium dioxide, calcium carbonate) are used in order to increase opacity, improve printability or economise pulp. Size (e.g., rosin mixed with alum) is used to render the paper less absorbent to ink, etc. FORMATION OF THE SHEET OR WEB (A) Machine-made paper and paperboard. The most commonly used method of making paper by machine is the Fourdrinier process. In this process the pulp, after being prepared as above, is fed through the head box onto a large endless band of man-made monofilaments or brass or bronze wire moving forward, generally with a vibratory movement; the pulp loses most of its water by gravity and by table rolls, foils or suction boxes placed along the underside of the wire. The fibres become felted and assume the form of a limp web. In some machines this web then passes under a wire-covered roll (dandy-roll) where it is consolidated and smoothed and, if required, is given a watermark produced, e.g., by an embossed design or line effect applied to the surface of the dandy roll cover. The web next passes to an endless belt of felt and so to the press section where it is further consolidated; it is then dried by passing over heated cylinders. An alternative method is the twin wire former (used particularly in newsprint manufacture). The pulp passes between two forming rolls and is carried between two "wires". Water is deflected from both wires, aided by suction boxes and suction rolls, and the web is formed. The newly formed web is drawn to the pressing and dryer sections. The twin wires forming both sides of the paper are alike, thus eliminating the felt side and wire side which characterise paper produced by the Fourdrinier process. In other types of machines the Fourdrinier wire is replaced by a large cylinder ("mould") covered with wire gauze revolving partly immersed in the prepared pulp. The cylinder takes up a layer of pulp and forms it into a paper web which is transferred to drying felts either in continuous lengths or, by dividing the surface of the roll, in sheet form. In a variation of the process, layers are allowed to build up around a large diameter roll to be cut off when the required thickness is reached. Machines with multiple wires or cylinder moulds (or a combination of Fourdrinier wire and cylinder moulds) are used to make boards composed of layers (sometimes of different colour or quality) produced simultaneously and rolled together in the wet state without the use of adhesive. (B) Hand-made paper and paperboard. In the manufacture of hand-made paper and paperboard the essential operation of moulding the pulp fibres into sheet form is performed by hand, even though other operations may be performed by machine. Hand-made paper and paperboard may be made from any paper-making material but generally best grade linen or cotton rags are used. In forming the sheet, a quantity of pulp is agitated on a sieve-like mould until most of the water is removed and the fibres felted. The sheet is then removed from the mould, pressed between felts and hung up to dry. The hand mould on which the fibres are felted together may consist either of parallel-laid wires or of woven wire cloth which produce watermarks on the paper. Watermark designs may also be affixed to the wire. The characteristic properties of hand-made paper are strength and durability and the quality of the grain. These properties render it suitable for special uses, e.g., banknote paper, document paper, drawing paper, etching paper, special filter papers, ledger paper, mounting paper, high class printing or stationery papers. It is also used for making wedding cards, letterheads, calendars, etc. Hand-made paper is normally made to size as used and has four deckled edges with marked feathering; these may, however, sometimes be trimmed and in any case are not a reliable distinguishing feature since some machine-made papers, particularly mould-made paper, also have deckled edges which are not, however, so markedly feathered. FINISHING OPERATIONS Paper may be finished by calendering or supercalendering (being first moistened if necessary), either by calenders integral with the paper-making machine or separate from it; this gives a more or less polished or glazed surface on either one or both faces. A similar surface on one side of the paper may be obtained by machine glazing using a heated cylinder. The paper may also receive a kind of false watermarking at this stage. Almost all ordinary writing, printing and drawing papers are also surface sized, for example, with some kind of glue or starch solution, generally in order to increase their surface strength and their resistance to the penetration and spreading of aqueous liquids, for example, writing ink. Coated paper and paperboard This term applies to paper or paperboard which has been given a coating on one or both sides either to produce a specially glossy finish or to render the surface suitable for particular requirements. Coating products generally consist of mineral substances, binding agents and other additives necessary for the coating operation, such as hardeners and dispersing agents. Carbon paper, self-copy and other copying or transfer papers, in rolls or sheets of particular dimensions, fall in heading 48.09. Paper and paperboard, coated with kaolin (China clay) or other inorganic substances, with or without a binder, in rolls or sheets, fall in heading 48.10. In addition to kaolin, the inorganic substances used for coating include barium sulphate, calcium carbonate, calcium sulphate, magnesium silicate, zinc oxide, and powdered metal. These coating materials are generally applied by means of a binding agent such as glue, gelatin, amylaceous substances (e.g., starch, dextrin), shellac, albumin, synthetic latex. Products are coated with kaolin, etc., to attain a glossy, dull or matte finish. Examples of products coated with kaolin or other inorganic substances are : coated printing papers and paperboard (including coated art or chromo papers), coated folding carton stock, papers coated with metal powder (other than stamping foils of heading 32.12) or mica powder, enamel papers (used largely for labels and for covering boxes). It may be noted that the binding agents used for fixing the coating, such as glue or starch, are also used for surface sizing but in the case of an uncoated surface sized paper, the coating pigments are absent. Subject to the exceptions mentioned in the heading, paper and paperboard with a coating of tar, bitumen, asphalt, plastics or other organic materials such as wax, stearin, textile dust, sawdust, granulated cork, shellac, in rolls or sheets, fall in heading 48.11. These coating materials may not require a binding agent for their application. The coatings are used to obtain the physical characteristics for a broad range of end uses, for example, for waterproof packages, release paper and paperboard. Such coated papers and paperboards include gummed or adhesive paper, flock papers (coated with textile dust and used for box coverings and wallpaper), paper coated with granulated cork (used as packing material), graphite paper, tarred wrapping paper. Colouring materials are also frequently added to the coating medium. Many coated papers and paperboards are finished with a high gloss by super-calendering, or the coating may be varnished in order to protect it from moisture (as in the case of washable papers, for example). It is possible to distinguish between surface sizing and coating by using a combination of chemical and physical methods. In most cases, differentiation can easily be made either on the basis of the nature or quantity of the material present or on the basis of the overall physical characteristics. In general, in the case of surface sizing, the appearance and texture of the natural surface of the paper or paperboard are maintained, whereas, in the case of coated paper or paperboard, the irregularities of the natural surface are substantially eliminated by the coating material. Problems may arise in borderline cases, particularly for the following reasons : low coated papers may have had the coating applied in the size press; certain substances present in coatings also exist in paper itself (e.g., filler); and fibres may be visible in the case of papers coated with material which does not contain a pigment, e.g., an aqueous dispersion of poly(vinyl chloride). However, it should be possible to deal with these cases by one or more of the methods indicated below. Many coated papers, such as mineral-coated art printing papers, cannot easily be distinguished by the eye from highly finished uncoated papers. The coating, however, may sometimes be seen by scraping the surface or be removed by immersion in water. One method of testing which may determine whether or not a paper is coated (particularly with inorganic substances) involves sticking the paper to an adhesive tape. When the tape is peeled off most of the coating adheres to the tape. It is then necessary to dissolve the wood fibres and any starch present on the tape with cupriethylene diamine. The presence or absence of a coating is indicated by comparing the weights of the tape before and after these operations. This method can also be used for papers coated with organic substances. Among other methods used for identifying coated paper and paperboard are scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction and infra-red spectrophotometry. These can be used for identifying products of both headings 48.10 and 48.11. Coloured or printed paper and paperboard These include papers printed by any process with one or several colours, stripes, motifs, designs, etc., and also surface marbled or jaspe papers. These papers are used for various purposes such as box covering and bookbinding. Paper may be surface-printed in ink of any colour with lines, whether parallel, convergent, or at an angle. Such paper is used, inter alia, for account books and book-keeping, school exercise books, drawing books, manuscript music sheets and books, writing paper, graphpaper and note books. This Chapter includes printed papers (such as wrapping papers for individual traders, printed with names of traders, trade marks and devices, directions for use of merchandise) provided that the printing is merely incidental to the use of the paper for wrapping, writing, etc., and that the goods do not constitute printed matter of Chapter 49 (see Note 12 to this Chapter). Impregnated paper and paperboard Most of these papers and paperboards are obtained by treatment with oils, waxes, plastics, etc., in such a manner as to permeate them and give them special qualities (e.g., to render them waterproof, greaseproof, and sometimes translucent or transparent). They are used largely for protective wrapping or as insulating materials. Impregnated papers and paperboards include, oiled wrapping paper, oiled or waxed manifold paper, stencil paper, insulating paper and paperboard impregnated, e.g., with plastics, rubberised paper, paper and paperboard merely impregnated with tar or bitumen. Certain papers such as wallpaper base may be impregnated with insecticides or chemicals. This Chapter also includes cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibres which consist of a variable number of very thin layers of loosely felted cellulose fibres rolled together when in a damp condition so that the layers tend to separate on drying. SCOPE OF THE CHAPTER This Chapter covers : (¥°) Paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibres, of all kinds, in rolls or sheets : (A) Headings 48.01, 48.02, 48.04 and 48.05 relate to machine-made uncoated papers subjected, if required, to sizing and simple finishing processes (e.g., calendering, glazing). Heading 48.02 also covers uncoated hand-made papers, which may be subjected to those same processes. Heading 48.03 relates to uncoated papers of a kind used for household or sanitary purposes, cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibres, which may be subjected to processes mentioned in the heading. Note 3 to this Chapter specifies the processes permitted for paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibres, of headings 48.01 to 48.05. The processes admissible in headings 48.01 to 48.05 are performed as a part of the continuous paper-manufacturing run. A characteristic of the papers of these headings is that the appearance and texture of their natural surface are maintained. In the case of coated papers, the irregularities of the natural surface are substantially eliminated by the coating material which forms a new, superior, non-cellulosic surface. (B) Headings 48.06 to 48.11 relate to certain special papers or paperboards, (for example, parchment, greaseproof, composite) or paper, paperboard or cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibres which have been subjected to various treatments, such as coating, design printing, ruling, impregnating, corrugation, creping, embossing, and perforation. Heading 48.11 also includes certain floor coverings on a base of paper or paperboard. Except where the terms of the headings otherwise require, when paper or paperboard answers to a description in two or more of the above-mentioned headings it is classified in that heading which occurs last in numerical order in the Nomenclature (Note 7 to this Chapter). It should also be noted that headings 48.01 and 48.03 to 48.09 apply only to paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibres, which are : (1) in strips or rolls of a width exceeding 36 cm; or (2) in rectangular (including square) sheets with one side exceeding 36 cm and the other side exceeding 15 cm in the unfolded state. On the other hand, headings 48.02, 48.10 and 48.11 cover paper and paperboard, in rolls or rectangular (including square) sheets, of any size. However, hand-made paper and paperboard in any size or shape as made directly and having all its edges deckled remains classified in heading 48.02, subject to Note 7 to this Chapter. (¥±) Filter blocks, slabs and plates, of paper pulp (heading 48.12), cigarette paper, whether or not cut to size or in the form of booklets or tubes (heading 48.13), wallpaper and similar wall coverings (as defined in Note 9 to this Chapter) and window transparencies (heading 48.14). (¥²) Paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibres, (but not the kinds falling in headings 48.02, 48.10 and 48.11, or in (¥±) above), in rolls or sheets cut to sizes below those stated in (¥°) above or cut to shapes other than rectangular (including square) and articles of paper pulp, paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding or webs of cellulose fibres. These fall in one or other of the headings 48.16 to 48.23. For the purposes of headings 48.12, 48.18, 48.22 and 48.23 and of the relevant Explanatory Notes, the term "paper pulp" means all the products of headings 47.01 to 47.06, that is to say pulp of wood or of other fibrous cellulosic material. The Chapter does not cover, however, goods excluded by Notes 2 and 12 to this Chapter. Subheading Explanatory Notes. Subheading Note 1 In this Note the minimum Mullen bursting strength is expressed in kilopascals (kPa). The g/cm©÷ equivalents are as follows :
