Methods for inhibiting barium sulfate deposition using a poly(amine)compound or its salts in papermaking systems

摘要

The present invention provides for methods of inhibiting the formation and deposition of barium sulfate on the surfaces of papermaking systems. The inventive treatments comprise adding an effective amount of a poly(amine) compound to the papermaking systems. Representative polymers include polyallylamine, polytrimethylallylammonium chloride and polyvinylamine.
