Measurement of Starch Concentration in Paper Production Writing and printing paper must be sized. This is done by adding a sizing agent to the raw material and additionally by also coating the paper surface in the paper machine during the production process. Starch is often used as such a sizing agent. A manufacturer of corrugated and specialized papers was in search of a solution which allows the continuous measurement of the starch concentration during the surface sizing. The respective concentrations must be maintained exactly for the frequently changing products. Deviations lead to defective goods or even to process interruption due tearing of the continuously produced paper on the wire of the paper machine. Continuous measurement of the starch concentration with the Inline Process Ref
