20090277355 | ALKENYLSUCCINIC ANHYDRIDE SURFACE-APPLIED SYSTEM AND USES THEREOF - The invention relates to an aqueous sizing composition including: (a) a first component comprising an emulsion having an alkenylsuccinic anhydride component containing alkenylsuccinic anhydride particles and a surfactant component; suspended in water; and (b) a second component selected from the group consisting of cationic starches, non-ionic starches, anionic starches, water, water-soluble polymers, and mixtures thereof; such that the alkenylsuccinic anhydride component and the second component are sufficiently diluted to enable the sizing composition to impart useful sizing properties to a fibrous substrate when the sizing composition contacts the fibrous substrate. The invention also relates to fibrous substrates treated with such a composition as well as processes for making and using the composition. In one embodiment, alkyl ketene dimer is used instead of alkenylsuccinic anhydride. | 11-12-2009 |
20090281212 | ALKENYLSUCCINIC ANHYDRIDE SURFACE-APPLIED SYSTEM AND USES THEREOF - The invention relates to an aqueous sizing composition including (a) an emulsion comprising alkenylsuccinic anhydride component containing alkenylsuccinic anhydride particles suspended in an aqueous polymer, and (b) a second component selected from the group consisting of cationic starches, non-ionic starches, anionic starches, water-soluble polymer, water and mixtures thereof, such that the alkenylsuccinic anhydride component is sufficiently dilute to enable the sizing composition to impart useful sizing properties to a fibrous substrate when the sizing composition contacts the fibrous substrate. The invention also relates to fibrous substrates treated with such a composition as well as processes for making and using the composition. In one embodiment, alkylene ketene dimer can be used instead of alkenylsuccinic anhydride. | 11-12-2009 |
20120255698 | Method and Composition for Improved Temporary Wet Strength - A new process to make high solids polymer backbone with low molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution has been developed by a continuous polymerization processes under refluxing conditions. In this process, a mixture of acrylamide monomer, chain transfer agent and initiator is simultaneously and continuously added to the heel of aqueous solution under refluxing conditions. | 10-11-2012 |
