Definitions

  • Aqueous dispersion of reactive sizing agents process for their preparation and their use
  • the invention relates to aqueous dispersions of reactive sizing agents which contain polymers containing vinylamine units as the protective colloid, the protective colloid containing less than 0.0001% by weight, based on the protective colloid, of diets. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for producing the aqueous dispersions, their use for sizing paper, cardboard and cardboard, and a method for sizing paper, cardboard and cardboard.
  • Aqueous alkyldiketene dispersions which are stabilized with cationic starch or with anionic emulsifiers, are commercially available bulk sizes for paper.
  • the full sizing effect of the papers glued with alkyldiketene dispersions only develops when the glued papers are stored.
  • Such papers cannot therefore be processed immediately after paper production, e.g. finished with coating colors, or printed. Rather, they have to be stored for at least 24 hours until a sufficient sizing effect develops.
  • cationic polymers increase the rate of sizing.
  • DE-A-3316 179 describes AKD dispersions which contain polymers containing ethyleneimine units and a water-soluble dicyandiamide-formaldehyde condensation product. The latter increases the speed of sizing (so-called promoter effect), but does not help stabilize the dispersion.

  • the cationic polymers are added separately from the reactive sizing agents, or the components are metered in together without, however, a dispersion having been prepared beforehand from the components.
  • AKD dispersions which, as protective colloid, are reaction products of polymers containing amino groups from the group of polymers containing vinylamine units, polyamidoamines and polymaidoamines grafted with polyethyleneimine with diketenes in the weight ratio of polymer to diketene of 10,000 : 1 to 1: 3 included.
  • protective colloid is very complex.
  • the object of the present invention was to provide improved aqueous dispersions of reactive sizing agents which are easier to produce and which have both an increased rate of sizing formation and adequate storage stability compared to the prior art.
