A process for the deinking of wastepaper is disclosed. The process comprises administering a sufficient amount of a branched alcohol alkoxylate surfactant to a sample of waste paper for which treatment is desired. The surfactant is effective for the flotation of the ink.

Deinking wastepaper containing electrostatic printed ink using branched

A process and composition for deinking dry toner electrostatic printed wastepaper is disclosed. The composition comprises a combination of at least two of the following components: (a) aliphatic petroleum distillates, (b) an alkylphenoxypoly-(ethyleneoxy) ethanol and (c) an ethoxylated polyoxypropylene glycol. The process comprises administering a sufficient amount of the composition to a sample of electrostatic printed wastepaper for which treatment is desired.

Process and composition for deinking dry toner electrostatic printed

A composition and method for deinking dry toner electrostatic printed wastepaper is disclosed. The composition comprises a combination of: (1) aliphatic petroleum distillates, (2) an alkylphenoxypoly-(ethyleneoxy) ethanol, and (3) an ethoxylated polyoxypropylene glycol. The method comprises administering a sufficient amount of this combination to a sample of electrostatic printed wastepaper for which treatment is desired.

A method for deinking dry toner electrostatic printed wastepaper is disclosed. The method comprises administering a sufficient amount of a surfactant with a hydrophile/lipophile balance of from about 0.5 to 10.0 to a sample of electrostatic printed wastepaper for which treatment is desired.

Use of surfactants having an HLB less than 10 in the deinking of dry

A method for deinking dry toner electrostatic printed wastepaper is disclosed. The method includes administering a sufficient amount of an ethoxylated surfactant, propoxylated surfactant, esterified surfactant or alkanolamide surfactant having an HLB value of less than 10.0 to a sample of electrostatic printed wastepaper for which treatment is desired.
