in this study, in order to constitute polyelectrolyte multilayers (pem) using layer-by-layer nanotechnology, recycled fibers were subsequently treated with cationic starch (cs) and anionic starch (as) multi-layers each layer conducted at neutral ph for 10 minutes. also, to compare with mechanical of refining, the pulp was refined for 25 minutes to the freeness of about 291 ml.csf using valley b...

various kinds of chemicals are used in papermaking to enhance paper properties and to improve efficiency of the production process. in the presence of cationic starch as an anionic charge catcher, effects of nano silica/cationic polyacrylamide complex on retention, drainage time, water volume drained by dynamic drainage jar and properties of paper recycled from old corrugated container were inv...

Cationic waxy corn starch was prepared from waxy corn starch with 2,3epoxypropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (ETMAC) as a cationic etherifying reagent. Its structure was identified by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The results showed that quaternary ammonium groups were introduced successfully into the waxy...

In this work, an antimicrobial guanidine polymer (PHGH) was grafted onto starch as a carrier to form branched or grafted chains along the starch backbone. This grafting improved the antimicrobial properties and the adsorption of the starch on recycled cellulose fibers. Similar work was also conducted on bleached sulfite fibers for comparison. The results showed that the starch, grafted with 12 ...

Colloids and polymeric systems constitute building blocks of choice for designing and controlling material properties. One major parameter is therefore the aggregation state of the polymer/particles complexes and its control to achieve desired properties. In this presentation, two examples will be given to illustrate this principle. The first example relates to paper surface hydrophobation, oft...
