Abstract

A method and apparatus for determining electrokinetic properties of a papermaking furnish includes mixing a sample of furnish in a container with a known amount of a charged additive and then measuring the streaming potential of the resultant ionically modified furnish sample. The amount of charged additive added to the container is increased or decreased as repeated streaming potential measurements are made until a desired streaming potential of the modified furnish sample is obtained. The results, which are expressed as the amount of titrant required to achieve the desired streaming potential in a given volume of furnish, may be used by papermakers to adjust process variables and achieve optimum, stable paper quality and machine runnability.
