Archroma Leucophor AFCN liquid

Wednesday, 30 January, 2019 | Supplied by: Archroma


Archroma’s Leucophor AFCN liq is an optical brightening agent (OBA) specially designed for food packaging and paper.

It has approval for use in food-contact paper and paperboard under FDA Food Contact Notification 1921, which became effective on 9 November 2018.

The OBA is suitable for stock application and for use in coating formulations that contain polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) or casein as a secondary binder.

It is a disulphonated OBA, with a characteristically high substantivity in the wet-end delivering the papermaker cost savings through the ability to make more rapid grade changes.
