Cationic Starch is a modified starch carrying a positive charge, which lets it bond strongly with negatively charged fibres and fillers at the wet end. It is one of the most cost-effective ways to raise paper strength while also improving retention and drainage.
Key Benefits
- Raises dry strength – burst, tensile and ring crush
- Improves retention of fines and fillers, cutting losses
- Faster drainage for better machine speed and lower steam use
- Cleaner white water and lower effluent load
- Helps rosin and AKD sizing work more efficiently
Applications & Use Cases
- Wet-end addition in writing & printing and copier paper
- Strength building in kraft, liner and fluting grades
- Duplex and board machines running recycled fibre
- Emulsifier for AKD/ASA sizing systems
- Tissue and specialty paper requiring better formation
Industries Served
Writing & printing paper, kraft paper, duplex and packaging board, tissue, newsprint and specialty paper mills, along with pulp mills using agro-residue, wood or recycled fibre.
