A resin composition for paper-coating, which comprises (A) a cross-linked amine compound which is a reaction product of (a) an aliphatic amine, (b) a glycidyl compound having at least two glycidyl groups in the molecule and (c) a compound selected from &agr;,&bgr;-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, &agr;,&bgr;-unsaturated nitrile compounds and &agr;-halocarboxylic acid groups; and (B) at least one selected from a group consisting of (B1) non-polymer nonvolatile substances and (B2) polyhydric alcohols, is provided, and the resin composition for paper-coating can realize high quality of coated paper by being mixed with a pigment and an aqueous binder and being coated on paper, which does not cause generation of formaldehyde and which does not tend to produce disadvantages such as thickening and deterioration in flowing property, and for paper using the resin composition and a coated paper produced by using the coating composition are also provided.

Resin composition for paper-coating, coating composition for paper and coated paper

A paper coating composition which comprises:

Paper coating composition

A water soluble resin obtainable by reacting at least two reactants comprising a polyamine and a urea compound, or at least four reactants comprising a polyamine, a urea compound, a dibasic carboxylic acid compound and a lactam; and then reacting the reaction product with at least one compound selected from among epihalohydrins, .alpha.,.gamma.-dihalo-.beta.-hydrins, glycidyl compounds and isocyanates. The resultant the water soluble resin is useful for making a paper coating composition, such as by being mixing that resin with a pigment and an aqueous binder. The paper coating composition does not generate formaldehyde and can be used to manufacture coated papers exhibiting improved properties including excellent water resistance.

Water soluble resins and application thereof to paper coating

A paper coating composition comprising (I) a pigment, (II) an aqueous binder, and (III) a water-soluble resin obtainable by the reaction of at least (a) an alkylenediamine or a polyalkylenepolyamine, (b) an urea compound, and (c) a compound selected from aldehydes, epihalohydrins and is further improved by incorporating therein, (IV) a compound selected from the group consisting of (f) amines selected from the group consisting of monoamines, diamines and their salts each having at least 4 carbon atoms, (g) quaternary organic ammonium salts, and (h) polyamides obtainable by the reaction between a dibasic carboxylic compound and a polyamine. The water-soluble resin of the component (III) may be further allowed to react with a dibasic carboxylic compound, an alicyclic amine and/or an alicyclic epoxy compound in addition to the above three ingredients. Paper coated by using the above composition is especially excellent in ink receptivity and water resistance.
