Dry Strength Additives
Dry strength for any paper grade is a balance between fibre selection, basis weight, refining, press loading, and the use of chemical additives to meet the required specification at the lowest cost.
Nalco Water’s strength and productivity improvement platform is a synergistic programme developed to enhance machine efficiency, reduce energy demand, and optimise strength to weight ratios for papermakers.

TECH FEATURE
Multifunctional dry strength additives for improved production efficiency
The desire to improve production rates while also reducing raw material costs is driving a growing trend towards lighter basis weights and the increased use of recycled furnishes. This paper examines multifunctional dry strength additives used to improve paper strength per unit of basis weight while lowering the total cost of operation in board and packaging grades.
