Protein samples of rapeseed were prepared with different compositions as protein isolate, protein concentrate and acetylated protein concentrate. They showed functional properties which are consolidated in the coating. The manufactured protein samples were tested in a pilot-scale paperboard coating plant. The results indicated that the use of rapeseed proteins in the coating preparation is technically feasible and that the color and roughness of the coated paperboard show no negative effect on the quality. Industry printing experiments with this coated paperboard achieved the standard quality.
