Product Overview
Polyethylene Oxide CAS 25322-68-3 is a high molecular weight nonionic water-soluble polymer developed as multifunctional strength agent for kraft paper and packaging paperboard. Conventional dry strength agents may be affected by anionic trash in pulp. This PEO grade adheres evenly onto cellulose fibers and forms cross-linked networks between fibers, significantly improving paper physical indexes. Besides reinforcing performance, it brings auxiliary retention and drainage effects, helping paper mills boost product quality and optimize production cost for packaging paper materials.
Key Features
- CAS Number: 25322-68-3, Appearance: White free-flowing fine powder
- Enhance inter-fiber bonding, raise dry tensile strength, burst resistance and folding endurance
- Improve physical strength of kraft sack paper, linerboard and carton board
- Offer auxiliary retention & drainage function, reduce fine fiber loss in white water
- Nonionic structure, stable performance under alkaline kraft papermaking environment
- Good compatibility with softwood pulp, hardwood pulp and recycled pulp
- Low dosage, no negative influence on paper formation
- Easy to prepare solution under low-shear stirring condition
Main Applications
- Strength reinforcing additive for kraft sack paper, wrapping kraft paper
- Functional wet-end agent for linerboard, corrugated medium and carton paperboard
- Multifunctional additive for recycled fiber packaging board
- Auxiliary chemical for heavy-duty industrial packaging paper production
Usage Guidance
Gradually disperse PEO powder under gentle continuous stirring to avoid agglomeration and fish-eye particles. Prepare dilute aqueous solution and add into pulp flow before headbox. Carry out laboratory strength testing to confirm optimal dosage. Avoid prolonged high-shear stirring, which will break molecular chains and weaken reinforcing effect.
