<p>A chemical composition for use in the papermaking process to produce a paper having enhanced characteristics of brightness, opaqueness, and sizing is provided. The process using the composition to make the paper and the paper made therefrom are also provided by the present invention. The composition is made by combining an amphoteric softener such as a salt of an amphoteric stearic acid derivative, a cationic softener base, such as the mono- and distearamides of aminoethylethanolamine, an acid, such as acetic acid, a surfactant, such as POE (15) tallow amine, carbamide, and water. In another embodiment, a saccharide may be employed instead of the amphoteric stearic acid derivative, surfactant and carbamide. To speed the production of the composition, a viscosity controlling agent, such as sodium chloride or sodium acetate, may be added thereto. The composition is added to pulp slurry during the papermaking process, and a paper made therefrom exhibits excellent qualities of brightness, opaqueness, water repellency, and dispersibility.</p> |
