Paperboard is a thick paper-based material. While there is no rigid differentiation between paper and paperboard, paperboard is generally thicker (usually over 0.30 mm, 0.012 in, or 12 points) than paper and has certain superior attributes such as foldability and rigidity. According to ISO standards, paperboard is a paper with a grammage above 250 g/m2, but there are exceptions. Paperboard can be single- or multi-ply. Paperboard can be easily cut and formed, is lightweight, and because it is strong, is used in packaging. Another end-use is high quality graphic printing, such as book and magazine covers or postcards. Paperboard is also used in fine arts for creating sculptures. Sometimes it is referred to as cardboard, which is a generic, lay term used to refer to any heavy paper pulpbased board, however this usage is deprecated in the paper, printing and packaging industries as it does not adequately describe each product type.

A paper does not have to beglossy to be considered coated. Coated paper has an agent added to its surface in order to improve brightness, smoothness, or other printing properties. Once coating is applied to the paper, rollers help to polish the paper. It fills in the tiny pits and spaces between the fibers, giving it a smooth, flat surface. Uncoated paper does not have a coating to fill in between the fibers. It is generally rougher than coated paper and tends to be more porous, which makes it very absorbent. Images printed on uncoated paper will be softer and less crisp. Uncoated papers are great options for novels or books that you will be writing in.

To put it simply, cardstock is a thicker and more durable type of paper. It is more flexible and thinner than paperboard and cardboard, making it perfect for arts and crafts. Since it is heavier and sturdier than standard or regular paper, it is also the best choice for paper crafting and card making. Card stock is often used for business cards, postcards, playing cards, catalogue covers, scrapbooking, and other applications requiring more durability than regular paper gives. The surface usually is smooth; it may be textured, metallic, or glossy. When card stock is labeled cover stock, it often has a glossy coating on one or both sides (C1S or C2S, for "coated: one side" or "coated: two sides"); this is used especially in business cards and book covers

A kitchen roll (or kitchen paper) is an absorbent towel made from tissue paper instead of cloth. Unlike cloth towels, paper towels are disposable and intended to be used only once. Paper towels soak up water because they are loosely woven which enables water to travel between the fibers, even against gravity (capillary effect). Paper towels can be individually packed (as stacks of folded towels or held coiled) or come in rolls. Paper towels have similar purposes to conventional towels, such as drying hands, wiping windows and other surfaces, dusting and cleaning up spills.
A type of paper having a pH higher than 7. Most paper is acid paper, since it is produced using bleaching agents, sizing materials, and coatings that impart to the paper a degree of acidity. The primary disadvantage of acid paper is its low permanence; acid paper tends to deteriorate very rapidly, perhaps in as short a time as 50 years or less. There has been much interest in recent years (especially from librarians and archivists) in alkaline paper (also called acid-free paper), the advantage of which is its much longer permanence (as long as 200 years). Alkaline paper also has enhanced brightness, whiteness, and opacity compared to acid paper. The lack of acids in papers is also believed to be more environmentally sound. One disadvantage of alkaline paper is its incompatibility with acid-based offset press dampening systems (when acids and bases intermingle, they react, sometimes quite strongly), especially when calcium carbonate is used as a filler or a coating. Alkaline sizing materials (such as alkyl ketene dimer or alkyl succinic anhydride) are beginning to be used in place of acid-rosin sizing, which is the chemical that, although useful for imparting water resistance to paper, is also responsible for rapid aging, yellowing, and deterioration.
