This study aimed to develop sunscreen emulsion from natural sunscreening agents, titanium dioxide and Aloe vera gel extract that have good sun protection efficacy. The effects of formulation variables i.e., particle size and amount of titanium dioxide, amount of Aloe vera gel extract (spray dried powder) and combination of sunscreening agents (titanium dioxide and Aloe vera gel extract) on physical properties and sun protection efficacy (e.g., SPF, UVA/UVB ratio, critical wavelength) of sunscreen products were evaluated. The results showed that the smaller particle size of titanium dioxide improved the sun protection efficacy and increased the UVB absorption edge of the products. SPF of the formulations could be ranked as Nanofine TiO2 (particle size 25–30 nm) > Kingruti T-01 TiO2 (particle size 200 nm) > Pigment TiO2 (particle size < 45,000 nm) and UVA/UVB ratio and critical wavelength of the formulations could be arranged in order as follows: Nanofine TiO2 < Kingruti T-01 TiO2 < Pigment TiO2. Increasing amount of titanium dioxide from 5 to 15 %w/w increased significantly viscosity and SPF of formulations. Aloe vera gel extract itself did not significantly affect SPF, however, combination of Aloe vera gel extract and titanium dioxide seemed to have synergistic effect on sun protection efficacy and decreased viscosity of the formulation. According to the results, the good sunscreen formulation consisted of 15 %w/w Nanofine TiO2, 5 %w/w Aloe vera gel spray dried powder in emulsion base because it was broad spectrum sunscreen and showed high SPF (27.53±1.92), high UVA/UVB ratio with critical wavelength higher than 370 nm.

The Ji’an PM No. 3 is the first linerboard machine in China to use multilayer curtain coating technology. Since successful startup at the end of 2011, further development has been carried out to optimize running conditions, coating formulations, and the base paper to provide a product with satisfactory quality and lower cost to manufacture. The key challenges include designing the base board structure for the desired mechanical strength, designing the surface properties for subsequent coating operations, optimizing the high-speed running of the curtain coater to enhance production efficiency, minimizing the amount of titanium dioxide in the coating color, and balancing the coated board properties to make them suitable for both offset and flexographic printing. The pilot and mill scale results show that curtain coating has a major positive impact on brightness, while smoothness is improved mainly by the blade coating and calendering conditions. Optimization of base board properties and the blade + curtain + blade concept has resulted in the successful use of 100% recycled fiber to produce base board. The optical, mechanical, and printability properties of the final coated board meet market requirements for both offset and flexographic printing. Machine runnability is excellent at the current speed of 1000 m/min, and titanium dioxide has been eliminated in the coating formulations without affecting the coating coverage. A significant improvement in the total cost of coated white liner production has been achieved, compared to the conventional concept of using virgin fiber in the top ply. Future development will focus on combining low cost with further quality improvements to make linerboard suitable for a wider range of end-use applications, including frozen-food packaging and folding boxboard.
