Abstract
AbstractThe amount of cationic soluble polymer fixed by cellulose fibres, whose specific surface area is increased by beating, was determined by a colloidal titration method. A linear relationship between the polymer uptake and the surface density of carboxyl groups was obtained up to a beating degree of 54°SR. For higher values, the uptake was found to be independent of surface carboxyl groups. These results are interpreted in terms of two mechanisms: a fixation of polycations through an ion‐exchange mechanism and an adsorption of polymer by Van der Waals interactions and/or hydrogenbonding.
