Abstract

Abstract Improved paper sizing compositions are composed of a ketene dimer, an anionic dispersing agent such as sodium lignin sulfonate, certain water-soluble, cationic resins and water. Exemplary of the cationic resins is the reaction product of epichlorohydrin and the aminopolyamide derived from adipic acid and diethylenetriamine.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 127 words
As an improved paper sizing composition, a ketene dimer dispersion consisting essentially of said dimer, an anionic dispersing agent selected from the group consisting of sodium lignin sulfonate, the condensation product of formaldehyde and sodium naphthalene sulfonate and mixtures thereof, a cationic resin which is the reaction product of epichlorohydrin with a polymer selected from the group consisting of (a) an aminopolyamide derived from a dicarboxylic acid and a polyalkylene polyamine having two primary amine groups and at least one secondary or tertiary amine group or (b) a condensate of cyanamide or dicyandiamide with a polyalkylene polyamine having the formula H 2 N(C n H 2n NH) x H, wherein n is an integer 2 through 8 and x is an integer 2 or more, and water.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 127 words
As an improved paper sizing composition, a ketene dimer dispersion consisting essentially of said dimer, an anionic dispersing agent selected from the group consisting of sodium lignin sulfonate, the condensation product of formaldehyde and sodium naphthalene sulfonate and mixtures thereof, a cationic resin which is the reaction product of epichlorohydrin with a polymer selected from the group consisting of (a) an aminopolyamide derived from a dicarboxylic acid and a polyalkylene polyamine having two primary amine groups and at least one secondary or tertiary amine group or (b) a condensate of cyanamide or dicyandiamide with a polyalkylene polyamine having the formula H 2 N(C n H 2n NH) x H, wherein n is an integer 2 through 8 and x is an integer 2 or more, and water.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the ketene dimer is a mixture of hexadecyl and octadecyl ketene dimers.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 14 words
