IMPROVEMENT OF PAPER PROPERTIES OF RECYCLED UNBLEACHED SOFTWOOD KRAFT PULPS BY POLY(ALLYLAMINE HYDROCHLORIDE)
Polyelectrolytes containing amine functional groups such as PAH (poly(allylamine hydrochloride)) can be useful, under certain conditions, for improving paper strength.In Mattress Protector this work, the charge density of PAH was determined at different pH and ionic strengths; PAH adsorption onto the cellulosic fibers was characterized, and the eff
