Definitions
- sizing refers to a fibrous substrate's ability to resist wetting or penetration of a liquid into a paper sheet.
- Aqueous dispersions of alkenylsuccinic anhydride cellulose- reactive sizing agent have been widely used in the paper and board making industry for many years, for sizing a wide variety of grades which include printing and writing grades and bleached and unbleached board grades.
- Cellulose-reactive alkenylsuccinic anhydride imparts hydrophobic properties to the paper and board products.
- Internal sizes can be either rosin-based or synthetic sizes such as alkenylsuccinic anhydride, or other materials. Internal sizes are added to the paper pulp prior to sheet formation. Surface sizes are sizing agents that are added after the paper sheet has formed, most generally at the size press, although spraying applications may also be used. Alkenylsuccinic anhydride sizing agent is ordinarily applied by dispersing it in a cationic or amphoteric hydrophilic substance such as a starch or a polymer.
- the starch or polymer-dispersed alkenylsuccinic anhydride sizing emulsion is added to the pulp slurry before the formation of a paper web.
- This type of addition of alkenylsuccinic anhydride sizing emulsions to the papermaking system is commonly called wet-end addition or internal addition of alkenylsuccinic anhydride.
- ASA emulsification in cationic starch needs a high starch/size ratio for emulsification.
- the starch needs to be an high quality starch suitable for producing a stable, high quality ASA emulsion.
- ASA emulsification in cationic polymer or starch-grafted polymer also uses a lower polymer/size ratio than for starch, but a polymer that provides a stable, high quality ASA emulsion is needed for emulsification.
