first, the difference of printing effect.

coated paper can be divided into one side and two sides, and the deformation is small when it meets water. Mainly used for exquisite picture books or covers. The patterns printed on coated paper are bright, vivid and lifelike, and have the effect similar to photos. However, the publicity materials printed on matte paper are not as bright as coated paper, but the patterns are more delicate, more upscale, low-key and luxurious than coated paper, which can also improve the grade of products.

second, the difference in appearance.

the manufacturing principle of coated paper is that a layer of white paint is coated on the base paper and then calendered. Its biggest feature is the smoothness of paper, which is very smooth compared with ordinary paper. In addition, there are also higher requirements for whiteness. According to this characteristic, when facing the light, coated paper will have obvious reflective effect.

Compared with coated paper, matte paper is a kind of higher-grade paper. The difference between them is that there is no obvious reflection. Although the effect of computer printing on matte paper is not as bright as coated paper, it is superior in fineness.

third, the difference in price.

because the various characteristics of matte paper are better than coated paper, matte paper is higher than coated paper in terms of price.

fourth, the difference in texture.

although the whiteness of coated paper is already relatively high, it is still worse than matte paper. In addition, in terms of hardness, the hardness of matte paper is also higher, so that ordinary coated paper will not be easily deformed. In addition, the price of matte paper is relatively expensive. From the perspective of cost, matte paper is generally used in the color field, while black and white paper is generally coated paper. ?
