A cellulose fiber-based substrate, at least one side of which is coated with an aqueous mixture composed of: a) at least one water-soluble polymer (WSP) containing hydroxyl groups, b) at least one lactone substituted with at least one linear or branched and/or cyclic C.sub.8-C.sub.30 hydrocarbon chain which may contain heteroatoms, c)at least one crosslinking agent. A method of production and use thereof.

A method of manufacturing a paper or paperboard with improved printing properties, which method comprises the steps of, providing a paper or paperboard substrate, comprising cellulosic fibres, providing a coating composition comprising a mixture of an esterified or etherified starch and a inorganic mineral; and coating at least one surface of said substrate with at least one layer of said coating composition.

The invention relates to a dimensionally stable preparation which can be abraded on flat materials, containing a translucent water-based polymer-containing carrier composition and platelet-shaped solid particles. The platelet-shaped solid particles have an average maximum diameter ranging from 2 to 40 μm and are contained in the preparation in a proportion by volume specified by the selected particle size in order to achieve a sheen which is clearly perceptible to the human eye while simultaneously having good abrasion properties. In a sub-aspect of the invention, the preparations according to the invention further have adhesive properties such that the abraded film is best suited for securing flat decorative elements or generally for adhering flat porous materials.
