newsprint is not coated, most of which are made of mechanical pulp, with the
weight of 38-48 grams; press glossy magazine paper is made of press glossy
newsprint, which is not coated, most of which are made of mechanical pulp, with
the weight of 42 grams or more, but this kind of paper is still rare in

whiteness; medium coated paper (MWC) is double-layer coating, most of which are
made of mechanical pulp, with the weight of more than 70g; copperplate paper is
the most familiar paper, most of which are made of chemical pulp, with
single-layer, double-layer and three-layer coating, and its coating and paper
surface treatment, Different paper mills have different technologies and
different quality. In fact, there is a cross between the coated paper and the
coated paper. The quality of the coated paper is better than that of the coated
paper, but the coated paper is better than that of the coated paper. This is
because the shielding rate of the mechanical pulp is better than that of the
chemical pulp. As for the three-layer coated copperplate paper, some people
call it real powder. So what kind of magazine chooses what kind of paper?
