How Carbonless Works?

Carbonless copy paper consists of sheets of paper that are coated paper,coated with micro-encapsulation|micro-encapsulated dye or ink or a reactive clay. The back of the first sheet is coated with micro-encapsulated dye (referred to as a Coated Back or CB sheet). The lowermost sheet is coated on the top surface with a clay that quickly reacts with the dye to form a permanent mark (Coated Front, CF). Any intermediate sheets are coated with clay on top and dye on the bottom (Coated Front and Back, CFB).

Carbonless copy paper was first produced by our Parent company Multiforms. Formerly, the options were to write documents more than once or use carbon paper, which was inserted between the sheet being written upon and the copy. Carbonless paper was used as business stationery requiring one or more copies of the original, such as invoices and receipts. The copies were often paper of different colors. Stationery with carbonless copy paper can be supplied collated either in pads or books bound into sets, or as loose sets, or as continuous stationery for printers designed to use it.Carbonless copy paper is also available in a self-contained version that have both the ink and the clay on the same side of the paper and named as Preassure Sensitive (PS) OR Self-Contained (SC).

When the sheets are written on with pressure (e.g., ball-point pen) or impact e.g., typewriter, Dot matrix printer, the pressure causes the micro-capsules to break and release their dye.
