摘要:
A method of preparing a stable dispersion of flocculated filler particles for use in papermaking processes comprises sequential addition of a first flocculating agent to an aqueous dispersion of filler particles followed by shearing of the dispersion, followed by addition of a second flocculating agent to the dispersion and further shearing of the resultant filler flocs to the desired particle size resulting in shear resistant filler flocs with a defined and controllable size distribution. In addition, a neutralizing coagulant can be added to the dispersion to partially or completely neutralize the charge of the filler before the first flocculating agent is added.
摘要:
Aqueous dispersions comprising one or more ethylene-acrylic acid polymers and an effective dispersing amount of one or more N,N-dialkylalkanolamines are useful for preparing substrates for use in electrophotographic or digital offset printing processes.
摘要:
A method of increasing retention and drainage in a papermaking furnish comprising adding to the furnish an effective amount of a diallyl-N,N-disubstituted ammonium halide/acrylamide copolymer and an effective amount of a cationic structurally-modified water-soluble polymer, the cationic structurally-modified water-soluble polymer prepared by initiating polymerization of an aqueous solution of from about 95 to about 5 mole percent of an acrylamide monomer and from about 5 to about 95 mole percent of a cationic monomer under free radical polymerization conditions to form a polymer solution and adding at least one structural modifier to the polymer solution after at least 30% polymerization of the monomers has occurred.
摘要:
A method for treating an ink-laden wastewater stream comprising adding an effective amount of a melamine-aldehyde polymer to the ink laden stream being treated and segregating at least some portion of the resulting ink-laden agglomerated solids from the treated water.
摘要:
A method of operating a papermaking process containing a press section with at least one press nip is disclosed. The method comprises simultaneously performing the following steps: (a) providing a press media for said papermaking process that has a MFP size that is less than the MFP size of a press media that was originally supplied to said papermaking process; (b) adding an effective amount of one or more press sheet dewatering additives to said papermaking process prior to the last press nip of said papermaking process; (c) providing a sheet moisture ratio of a paper sheet entering a press nip of said press section to between about 2 to about 9; and (d) applying an optimum rate of pressure development at one or more press nips of said papermaking process, wherein said steps a, b, c, and d either: result in the production of a more uniform paper sheet without the reduction in paper solids exiting the press section that would be expected from performing a, c, and d, alone or in combination with one another; or result in the production of a more uniform paper sheet with an increase in solids content of said paper sheet exiting the press section.

A method of preparing a stable dispersion of flocculated filler particles for use in papermaking processes comprises sequential addition of high and low molecular weight flocculating agents to an aqueous dispersion of filler particles followed by shearing of the resultant filler flocs to the desired particle size resulting in shear resistant filler flocs with a defined and controllable size distribution.
摘要:
A method of sizing paper for use in applications which require resistance to liquids comprising incorporating in the paper a size composition comprising one or more alkenyl succinic anhydride (ASA) compounds prepared from the reaction of maleic anhydride and one or more substantially symmetrical C20-C28 internal olefins.
摘要:
The invention provides a method of producing paper with a higher proportion of mineral filler particles than is otherwise be possible without the expected loss in paper strength by preflocculating the filler particles. The method allows for the use of the greater amount of filler particles by coating at least some of the filler particles with a material that prevents the filler materials form adhering to a strength additive. The strength additive holds the paper fibers together tightly and is not wasted on the filler particles.
