AXCHEM Group offers a wide array of sizing agents to help papermakers improve water resistance of their products, whether it be a printing paper or packaging board that must meet a specific performance standard, such as the UN Cobb water absorption test.
Our portfolio of internal sizing agents includes a range of chemical compositions—alkyl ketene dimer (AKD) size, alkyl succinic anhydride (ASA) size and rosin size—for superior hydrophobicity, retention and distribution in acid, neutral or alkaline sizing environments. We also offer promoter resins to enhance the performance of AKD- and ASA-based internal sizing agents.
By determining the optimum paper sizing properties and paper making conditions, customers can achieve the optimal sizing performance at the lowest treatment cost.

Notre gamme d’agents d’encollage interne comprend une gamme de compositions chimiques – encollage à base de dimères d’alkyl cétène (AKD), d’anhydride succinique d’alkyle (ASA) et de colophane – pour une hydrophobicité, une rétention et une distribution supérieures en milieux acides, neutres ou alcalins. Nous proposons également des résines promotrices pour améliorer les performances des agents d’encollage interne à base d’AKD et d’ASA.
