WET STRENGTH THERMOSETTING RESIN FORMULATIONS AND POLYAMINAMIDE POLYMERS SUITABLE FOR USE IN THE MANUFACTURE OF PAPER PRODUCTS

摘要

An aqueous formulation of a high solid content fully functional thermosettable wet strength resin designed for use in the manufacture of paper products is disclosed. The wet strength resin is the product of reaction of an epihallohydrin and an end-capped polyaminamide polymer. The thermosetting wet strength resins are useful in the manufacture of improved absorbent paper products such as bathroom tissues, facial tissues, napkins, towels, and paperboard products such as dairy cartons and bag paper.
