An alkenylsuccinic acid emulsion sizing agent, wherein said alkenylsuccinic acid emulsion sizing agent has a solid concentration of at least 25% by weight, and comprises active components comprising an alkenylsuccinic acid present in an amount of at least 50 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the total active components in the alkenylsuccinic acid emulsion sizing agent; and, wherein said alkenylsuccinic acid is obtained by dispersing a product prepared by reacting a branched inner olefin having from 9 to 18 carbon atoms with maleic anhydride in water using an amphoteric acrylamide-series polymer.

Alkenylsuccini acid emulsion sizing agent

Disclosed is an emulsified alkenylsuccinic acid sizing agent useful for acid papermaking. The sizing agent has a solid concentration of at least 25% by weight and comprises an alkenylsuccinic acid which is the reaction product of a branched internal olefin and maleic anhydride and which has been dispersed in water by an emulsifying and dispersing agent comprising polyvinyl alcohol. The sizing agent results in good storage stability and has an excellent sizing effect at a low addition ratio immediately after completion of high-temperature papermaking and over a wide pH range.

Emulsified alkenylsuccinic acid sizing agent

An emulsified alkenylsuccinic acid sizing agent having a solid content of not less than 25% by weight is disclosed, which comprises a composition having not less than 25 parts by weight of alkenylsuccinic acid derived from the reaction product of a branched internal olefin of 12-18 carbon atoms with maleic anhydride, and being dispersed in water with an anionic polymer type dispersant or with an anionic polymer type dispersant and an emulsifier.
