The use of alkenyl succinic anhydride compounds derived from symmetrical olefins in internal sizing for paper production

摘要

A method of sizing paper for use in applications which require resistance to liquids comprising incorporating in the paper a size composition comprising one or more alkenyl succinic anhydride (ASA) compounds prepared from the reaction of maleic anhydride and one or more substantially symmetrical C₂₀-C₂₈ internal olefins.
