A method for monitoring with enhanced sensitivity of the deposition of one or more organic materials dispersed in an aqueous medium in a papermaking process which includes measuring the rate of deposition of the organic materials from the aqueous medium onto a quartz crystal microbalance having a top side contacting with the aqueous medium coated with a layer containing a material with surface energy in the range from about 34 to about 49 dynes/cm2, and a second, bottom side isolated from the aqueous medium is disclosed. Additionally, a method for measuring the effectiveness of an inhibitor that decreases the deposition of the organic materials in a papermaking process is also disclosed.

1. A method for monitoring a rate of deposition of at least one organic material in a papermaking process, the at least one organic material dispersed in an aqueous medium, the monitoring having enhanced sensitivity, the method comprising: measuring the rate of deposition of the at least one organic material from the aqueous medium onto a quartz crystal microbalance, wherein the quartz crystal microbalance has a top side and a bottom side,wherein the top side contacts the aqueous medium and is coated with a coating material, the coating material having a surface energy in the range from about 34 to about 49 dynes per square centimeter, andwherein the bottom side is isolated from the aqueous medium. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein said papermaking process involves recycled pulp and/or broke. 3. The method of claim 1 wherein said organic materials are hydrophobic organic materials, stickies, tackies, white pitch, synthetic contaminants in a papermaking process, wood pitch, natural contaminants in a papermaking process, or a combination thereof. 4. The method of claim 3 wherein said stickies are microstickies. 5. The method of claim 4 wherein said microstickies do not exceed approximately 0.10-0.15 mm. 6. The method of claim 3 wherein said stickies and tackies are selected from the group consisting of: adhesives; coating binders; styrene butadiene rubber; ethylene vinyl acetate; polyvinyl acetate; polyvinyl acrylate; polyvinyl butyral; polybutadiene; wax; alkyd resins; polyol acrylates; and sizing chemicals. 7. The method of claim 1 wherein the top side of the quartz crystal microbalance is made of one or more conductive materials selected from the group consisting of: platinum; titanium; silver; gold; lead; cadmium; diamond-like thin film electrodes with or without implanted ions; silicides of titanium, niobium and tantalum; lead-selenium alloys; mercury amalgams; and silicone. 8. The method of claim 1 wherein said coating material is made of one or more of the materials selected from the group consisting of: epoxy resin, silicone rubber, alkyd enamel, cellulose, polycarbonate, polyester, acrylic polymer, melamine, vinyl resin, nylon, and capron. 9. The method of claim 1 wherein the monitoring occurs in a papermaking process at a location selected from the group consisting of: pulp processing; recycling; a refiner, a repulper; a bleaching chest; a deinking stage; a water loop; a headbox of a paper or tissue machine, and a combination thereof. 10. The method of claim 1 wherein said aqueous medium is a pulp slurry. 11. A method for measuring the effectiveness of inhibitors that decrease a rate of deposition of at least one organic material in a papermaking process, the method comprising: a. monitoring the at least one organic material, the at least one organic material dispersed in an aqueous medium, the monitoring comprising measuring the rate of deposition of the at least one organic material from the aqueous medium onto a quartz crystal microbalance, the quartz crystal microbalance having a top side and a bottom side;b. adding an inhibitor to the aqueous medium to produce a modified aqueous medium; andc. re-measuring the rate of deposition of the at least one organic material from the modified aqueous medium onto the coated surface of the quartz crystal microbalance;wherein the top side contacts the aqueous medium and the modified aqueous medium and is coated with a coating material adhered with a coupling agent, the coating material containing a non-swelling epoxy resin or a silicone containing polymer,wherein the bottom side is isolated from the aqueous medium and the modified aqueous medium, andwherein the inhibitor decreases the deposition of the organic materials from the aqueous medium. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the coupling agent is a silane compound. 13. A method for measuring the effectiveness of inhibitors that decrease a rate of deposition of at least one organic material in a simulated papermaking process, the method comprising: a. monitoring the at least one organic material, the at least one organic material dispersed in an aqueous medium in a simulated papermaking process, the monitoring comprising measuring the rate of deposition of the at least one organic material from the aqueous medium onto a quartz crystal microbalance, the quartz crystal microbalance having a top side and a bottom side;b. adding an inhibitor to the aqueous medium to produce a modified aqueous medium; andc. re-measuring the rate of deposition of the at least one organic material from the modified aqueous medium onto the coated surface of the quartz crystal microbalance;wherein the top side contacts the aqueous medium and the modified aqueous medium and is coated with a coating material adhered with a coupling agent, the coating material containing a non-swelling epoxy resin or a silicone containing polymer,wherein the bottom side is isolated from the aqueous medium and the modified aqueous medium, andwherein the inhibitor decreases the deposition of the organic materials from the aqueous medium. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein the coupling agent is a silane compound.
