ACID FREE PAPER
Acid-free papers are manufactured in an alkaline environment, which prevents the internal chemical deterioration of the paper over time. The calcium carbonate being added as a buffer also makes the paper resistant to the effects of an external acidic environment.

LIGNIN FREE PAPER
Lignin is a product found in cellulose plants. This can be washed out when making the pulp. Lignin can make paper weaker and more likely to discolour. For example, newspaper turns yellow in sunlight because of the lignin in the pulp.

BIODEGRADABLE
Materials that, left to itself, will be decomposed by natural process is called biodegradable.
