Type of paper

A supercalendered, smooth, dense, transparent or semitransparent paper manufactured primarily from chemical pulps, which have been beaten to secure a high degree of hydration of the stork. This paper is grease resistant, and has a high resistance to the passage of air and many essential oil vapours used as food flavouring and when waxed, lacquered, or laminated, is practically impervious to the transmission of moisture vapour. It is made in white and various colours; opaque glassines are produced by the addition of fillers. Glassine paper is used as a protective wrapper for all kinds of food stuff, tobacco products, chemicals and metal parts, as well as for many purposes where its transparent feature is useful, For these purposes it is often converted into bags envelopes, printed wraps, fluted cups, etc. it is also used for lining boxes, cartons and as windows in window envelopes. It is also called glazed greaseproof paper. The German name is "PERGAMYN"
