Nalco Water has developed a revolutionary cationic strength technology for tissue paper production. This cationic strength technology enables significant tensile gains with a reduced impact of softness compared to existing market solutions.
This holistic strength gain leads to a host of operational benefits, including reduced wet-end chemical consumption, increased flexibility in fiber selection, improved drainage and machine productivity, lowered energy and water consumption, enhanced fiber retention and the potential for new grade development.
