That is, a combination of the composition of the monomers of the ionic water-soluble polymer and the type and concentration of the salt that satisfies this condition is essential.
- the salt used in the aqueous salt solution is preferably a polyvalent anionic salt.
- Typical examples of the salt include sodium sulfate, ammonium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, aluminum sulfate, disodium hydrogen phosphate and the like.

- the white water with the quantitization filter paper was incinerated at 600°C and the weight of the ash content of the white water was measured. This weight is represented by f(g).
- the SS concentration and the ash concentration were also measured for 0.5 wt% paper stuff. They are represented by SS 0 and Ash 0 , respectively.
- total one pass retention and filler one pass retention were calculated from the following equations.
- the retention rate was measured in the same manner as in Examples 1 to 14 using acrylic acid (co)polymers (G) or (H) and/or bentonite in place of the anionic colloidal silica and/or bentonite. The obtained results are shown in Table 4.

- a drainage test was conducted by adding ionic polymer dispersions (A) to (F) to paper stuff.
- the amount of drainage was measured in the same manner as in Examples 31 to 44 using the ionic polymers (a) to (f) shown in Table 7 in place of the polymer dispersions (A) to (F) used in Examples 31 to 44.
- the amount of drainage was measured in the same manner as in Examples 31 to 44 using acrylic acid (co)polymers (G) or (H) and/or bentonite in place of the anionic colloidal silica and/or bentonite used in Examples 31 to 44.
- the obtained results are shown in Table 8.
