The invention relates to a method for sizing a paper product that involves the steps of (a) providing a paper stock system; (b) forming, in the absence of high shearing forces, an aqueous sizing emulsion comprising an alkenylsuccinic anhydride component; (c) submitting the emulsion formed from step b to a post-dilution step in the presence of a cationic component under conditions, in the absence of high shearing forces, that produce a post-diluted emulsion having improved sizing efficacy; (d) adding the post-diluted emulsion to the paper stock; and (e) forming a paper web.
