Popis: Today, various coatings are used in the printing industry, which give the printed product various additional features such as functional, decorative and protective properties. As a coating, fragrant microcapsules can be applied in combination with a printing ink or varnish to provide printed products with added value. The functionality of the applied fragranced microcapsules is initiated and achieved by rubbing the applied coating surface, whereby the microcapsules burst open and release the encapsulated active ingredient, the fragrance. In this paper the effects of the applied fragrance microcapsules (in the form of coating) on the print quality and the physical properties of the coated prints are investigated. Performed AFM and print quality analyses of the functional coatings produced showed that the applied fragrance microcapsules and their different concentrations significantly influence both the physical and print quality properties of the prints.
