Abstract

Abstract Process for the manufacture of surface-sized papers by impregnating a paper with a solution containing a water-soluble salt of a random polymer based on α-olefins and ethylenically unsaturated acids and a compound of the formula: ##EQU1## wherein R is alkyl, aryl or a radical of the formula: ##EQU2## and R 1 and R 2 each independently denotes H, R or a radical of the formula: R -- O-- CH.sub.2 -- and drying the impregnated paper. Very well sized papers are obtained which show alkali resistance and filler compatibility.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 131 words
A process for the manufacture of surface-sized paper by impregnating paper with an aqueous solution containing 0.1 to 5% by weight of salts of random copolymers obtained by copolymerization of a. from 50 to 90% by weight of α-olefins of from 2 to 12 carbon atoms and b. from 50 to 10% by weight of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or mixtures thereof and neutralization thereof to give copolymers having K values of from 20 to 40, and from 0.1 to 20% by weight of a compound of the formula: ##EQU3##where R is a group selected from alkyl, aryl and radicals of the formula: ##EQU4##and R 1 and R 2 each independently denotes H, R or a radical of the formula: R -- O -- CH.sub.2 -- and drying the impregnated paper.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 131 words
A process for the manufacture of surface-sized paper by impregnating paper with an aqueous solution containing 0.1 to 5% by weight of salts of random copolymers obtained by copolymerization of a. from 50 to 90% by weight of α-olefins of from 2 to 12 carbon atoms and b. from 50 to 10% by weight of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or mixtures thereof and neutralization thereof to give copolymers having K values of from 20 to 40, and from 0.1 to 20% by weight of a compound of the formula: ##EQU3##where R is a group selected from alkyl, aryl and radicals of the formula: ##EQU4##and R 1 and R 2 each independently denotes H, R or a radical of the formula: R -- O -- CH.sub.2 -- and drying the impregnated paper.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 65 words
A process as set forth in claim 1, wherein the salt of the random copolymer is obtained by copolymerization of (a), (b) and, as addition comonomers, (c) up to 30% by weight of non-basic polymerizable compounds selected from the group consisting of acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, acrylamide, methacrylamide, C 1-4 alkyl esters of acrylic and methacrylic acids, vinyl esters of C 2-4 alkanoic acids and vinyl chloride.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 34 words
A process as set forth in claim 1, wherein the random copolymer is obtained by solution polymerization in a primary or secondary C 1-4 alcohol or alcohol mixture at from 60° to 130° C.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 21 words
A process as set forth in claim 1, wherein the aqueous solution contains urea as the compound of the formula: ##STR8##5.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 36 words
A process as set forth in claim 1, wherein the paper is additionally impregnated with from 0.005 to 0.5% of cation by weight based on the weight of the paper of aluminum(III) salts or iron(III) salts.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 32 words
A process as set forth in claim 1 wherein said compound is selected from the group consisting of urea, dimethyl acetamide, N-dimethyl urea, ethylene urea, propylene urea, dimethoxymethylol urea and dimethylol urea.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 28 words
A process as set forth in claim 6 wherein the amount of salts of random copolymers contained in said aqueous solution is from 0.4 to 3% by weight.
