Best answer
Correct choice is (d) Size press

Best explanation: The application of chemicals to the surface of a paper web is done with a size press. In a size press, the dry paper is passed through a flooded nib, where a dispersion of functional chemical contacts both sides of the paper. Excess liquid is then squeezed out in the press and the paper is re-dried.
