“…The coating materials are usually acrylic or photo-curable varnish [8,9], PET, PE or PP laminates [10]. On an optical point of view, the coating material has not much importance, except its refractive index, absorption coefficient and surface topology which can however have a strong impact on the print appearance, especially on the color gamut [11][12][13] and the glossiness [14][15][16][17]. These changes of appearance can first be explained by a change of surface topology of the material, since adding a coating layer can smoothen the surface of the material and reduce light scattering on it [18,19], or, on the contrary, increase the surface scattering [20].…”
