in production of tissue paper, the adhesion of a liquid adhesive creping aid, compound polymer, as creping aids on the yankee dryer surface was investigated. a compound polymer was prepared based on mixing ratio of poly (amideamine)-epichlorohydrin resin (pae) as an adhesive agent, polyvinyl alcohol (pva) as a modifier agent, and cationic fatty acid (cfa) and ethylene glycol (eg) as release age...

Effect of nonsolvent in the polymer (polyvinyl butyral) solution in ethanol on the electrospinning performance and nanofiber properties was investigated. Water as the nonsolvent was added in various amounts to the polymer solution. Addition of water did influence neither surface tension nor conductivity of polymer solution significantly. On the other hand, it increased its viscosity. The perfor...

Polymers are widely used in solution to provide structure and function, e.g., viscoelasticity, colloidal stability, and delivery of actives. Underlying these functions are interand intra-molecular interactions that are modulated by the solvent used. Solvents can have a great impact on polymer conformation [Alexandridis and Yang, 2000]. A solvent may enable the dissolution of a certain polymer o...
