What Is The Role Of Polyacrylamide In The Paper Industry?
Polyacrylamide flocculants are widely used in the papermaking industry to improve paper quality, pulp dewatering performance, retention of fine fibers and fillers, and reduce raw material consumption and environmental pollution. It can be used as a dispersant to improve the uniformity of paper.
The application of polyacrylamide flocculants in the papermaking industry mainly includes two aspects:
Firstly, improving the retention rate of fillers and pigments, reducing the loss of raw materials and environmental pollution.
The second is to improve the strength of the paper. Adding polyacrylamide to paper can improve the retention rate of fine fibers and filler particles on the mesh, accelerating the dehydration of the paper. The formation of flocculation can also make the water in the pulp easier to filter, reduce fiber loss in white water, reduce environmental pollution, and improve filtration and filtration efficiency.
