Surface Sizing Agents

Surface sizing agents are commonly used to provide water-resistance and prevent paper from blurring with water or ink.
These agents are applied to a wide variety of paper / paper board (writing paper, copying paper, corrugated board, newspaper, postcard, paper cup, paper bag, and so on).

Solution Type SURFACE SIZING AGENT SS series(Styrene acrylic、Acrylic、Olefine)

Characteristics
  • This series consist primarily of water soluble styrene based polymer.
  • The application of this series makes it possible to provide water-resistance to various paper / paperboard (from acidic paper to alkaline paper).
