Introduction
Sanocat is a cationic starch made with varying degree of cationic charge based on application requirements.
Description
Sanocat is manufactured with maximum molecular weight and has a cationic charge attached to it, which improves the internal strength properties of the paper. The electrokinetic attraction promotes a stronger bond between the anionic cellulosic fibre surface, anionic fillers and the starch hydroxyl groups.
Advantages
- Increased internal strength properties
- Better retention of fillers & fines.
- Faster drainage & improved sheet formation.
- Decrease of suspended solids in the final effluent
- Easily dispersible and totally soluble
Applications
Paper Industry
Used in the Paper Industry as a wet end additive, typically at addition rates of 3-10 kg per ton.
Packaging
Sanocat powder is available in 25 – 50 Kgs Plastic lined HDPE woven bags as well as in 1 Ton Jumbo HDPE Bags.
