Definitions
- a typical papermaking process includes the steps of: 1 ) pulping wood or some other source of papermaking fibers; 2) producing a paper mat from the pulp, the paper mat being an aqueous slurry of cellulosic fiber, which may also contain additives, such as inorganic mineral fillers or pigments; 3) depositing this slurry on a moving papermaking wire or fabric; 4) forming a sheet from the solid components of the slurry by draining the water; 5) pressing and drying the sheet to further remove water, and 6) potentially rewetting the dry sheet by passing it through a size press and further drying it to form a paper product.
- the dry strength of paper generally includes, for example, internal bonds, dry tensile strength, and burst strength.
- Commonly used dry strength agents include natural polymers, such as cationic starch, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and guar gum, and synthetic polymers, such as polyacrylamide (cationic, anionic and amphoteric), glyoxalated polyacrylamides (GPAMs), and polyvinylamines.
