Coated paper are less porous sheets of paper. Therefore, they do not absorb as much ink in the printing process as uncoated papers would. The inks not being absorbed, and just sitting on top of the paper, make it look glossier. Coated paper is made by coating a paper with a compound or polymer to transmit its certain qualities. This includes its weight, smoothness, and surface gloss. Coated paper can either have a very high shine or a subtle shine. Materials like calcium carbonate, talc and bentonite can be used to coat papers for high quality printing. The coating formulation may also contain resins or other chemical additives. Coated papers are mostly produced in three different qualities, standard coated fine papers, low coat weight papers, and art papers.
