is a type of coated paper that allows information written on the top sheet to be transferred to one or more sheets under it without the need of any other carbon copy paper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carbonless copy paper works through a chemical reaction between the top, middle and bottom sheets. The back of the top sheet is coated with microencapsulated dye or ink, and the middle sheet is coated on both sides with a clay coating on the front and microencapsulated dye on the back, while the front of the bottom sheet is coated\u00a0 with a clay coating. When the pressure is applied on the top sheet by writing or printing, the capsules break and react with the clay, which creates a copy on the bottom sheet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Carbonless_Copy_Paper_vs_Carbon_Copy_Paper\"><\/span>Carbonless Copy Paper vs Carbon Copy Paper<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The given table helps you to understand the major difference between carbonless paper and carbon paper.
