Carbon paper

Japanese: カーボン紙 - かーぼんし(英語表記)carbon paper
Carbon paper

A thin copying paper made by mixing colored substances such as pigments and dyes with wax or oil and coating the mixture on carbon paper. It is available in one-sided and two-sided coating and is used for copying by hand or with a typewriter. Colored substances include carbon black for black and various organic pigments as well as dyes. Carbon paper must be thin, uniform, pinhole-free and strong, so it is made primarily from chemical pulp of wood, with high-quality paper made with a large amount of cotton or hemp pulp.

Japanese:

顔料、染料などの有色物を蝋(ろう)や油などに混ぜてカーボン原紙に塗工して製造した複写用薄葉紙。片面塗工と両面塗工とがあり、手書きまたはタイプライターで複写するのに用いる。有色物としては、黒はカーボンブラックおよび各種の有機顔料のほか染料を用いる。カーボン原紙としては、薄くて均一でピンホールがなく強いことが要求されるので、木材の化学パルプを主原料とし、上質なものでは綿または麻のパルプを多く配合して製造した紙を用いる。
