AKD Emulsion
Efficient solution for paper sizing: AKD Emulsion
The Azsize® series is a highly efficient alkyl ketene dimer (AKD) emulsion that reacts directly with cellulose to provide sizing. It is specifically designed to enhance drainage and optimize sizing efficiency in most papermakingsystems. The emulsion is formulated to work effectively with most retention systems and other additives currentlyused in the papermaking industry.
