Introduction: The Role of Paper Chemicals in Modern Papermaking
In today’s competitive paper industry, performance and efficiency matter more than ever. From packaging and printing grades to tissue and specialty papers, manufacturers rely on a wide range of paper chemicals to achieve the desired balance of strength, surface quality, and functionality.
Choosing the right additives is not only about product quality but also about reducing costs, optimizing machine runnability, and meeting environmental requirements. This is where Amazon Chemicals plays a vital role. As a trusted global supplier, we provide advanced solutions tailored to meet the evolving demands of mills worldwide.
Strength Additives: Building Durability in Every Sheet
Strength is a fundamental property in papermaking. Without the right balance of tensile, burst, and tear resistance, paper products fail to meet the demands of end-use applications.
- Dry Strength Agents improve fiber bonding, sheet density, and tensile properties—essential for packaging papers, printing grades, and tissue.
- Wet Strength Agents ensure paper maintains integrity when exposed to water, commonly used in paper towels, napkins, liquid packaging, and labels.
At Amazon Chemicals, our strength additives are designed to enhance performance without compromising machine efficiency.
Sizing Agents: Enhancing Water and Oil Resistance
Another crucial factor in paper quality is resistance to water and oil penetration.
- Internal Sizing: Alkyl Ketene Dimer (AKD) and Alkenyl Succinic Anhydride (ASA) are widely used neutral sizing agents.
- Surface Sizing: Improves printability and barrier properties for packaging and printing grades.
Amazon Chemicals offers a complete portfolio of sizing agents engineered for efficiency, high retention, and compatibility with calcium carbonate fillers.
Printability & Surface Improvement Additives
Printability remains one of the most visible qualities in paper.
- Defoamers prevent foam-related defects, ensuring smooth sheet formation and consistent surface quality.
- Surface sizing chemicals enhance ink absorption and reduce dusting for superior print performance.
By combining defoamers and surface treatments, Amazon Chemicals helps mills maintain excellent formation and print results.
