EMULSIFIED ALKENYLSUCCIMIC ACID SIZING AGENT
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a novel alkenylsuccinic acid type of emulsified sizing agent which is stable in storage in high concentra~ion, and produces remarkable efficlency in paper sizing.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Saponification type (or solution type) rosin sizing agents have long been used in combination with aluminium sulfate as an lnternal paper sizing agent in acidic p~per making. Such kinds of sizing agents are known to be less effective at a low addition ratio, and the effect is known to decrease at a high temperature or in a neutral pH region or in a closed water system.
~mulsion type of rosin sizing agents were developed to cancel such disadvantaye of the saponification kype rosin sizing agents. However, they are s~ill less ef~ective at a low addition ra~io in ~izing, and are not sati~fac~ory.
To of~set the disadvantages o~ the rosin sizing agents, a product derived by alkali-saponification of alkenylsuccinic acid has recently come to be used as a sizing agents because of its sufficient e~fect at a low , addition ratio (U.S. Patent 4,514,544). However, the~e si ing agents st} 1 ~ave d sa~vantage that the Lizing , .............................. . . .
-~ , sfficiency is low in high temperature paper making or at paper making at around a neutral pH region.
Further, an emu~sion type of alkenylsuccinic acid sizing agent is known which is derived by emulsifying alkenylsuccinic anhydride containing an emulsifier in a cationized starch solution or water at a low concentration of about 0.5 to 3 % and is useful as a neutral paper sizing agent (U.S. Patent 3,321,069).
The mechanism of action of alkenylsuccinic anhydride in neutral paper making is based on direct reaction of an anhydride group with a hydroxyl group of pulp and the fixation thereof onto pulp fibers to produce sizing effect. Accordingly, in conventional neutral paper making, alkenylsuccinic anhydride has necessarily to be added in an anhydride form to a pulp slurry. The al~enylsuccinic anhydride is highly reactive to water.
Therefore, if the al]cenylsuccinic anhydride is pxeliminarily emulsified and dispersed in water, it reacts with water in a short time ko lose the anhydride group, thereby losing its function as a neutral sizing agent, and furthermore causing coagulation, precipitation, or separation of the emulsion owing to the change of the emulsion state in a process of conversion of alkenylsllccinic anhydride to alkenylsuccinic acid.
Thus, an alkenylsuccinic anhydride type emulsion sizing agent for neutral paper making is storable only for ,~'?~ 5i~
several hours in an aqueous dispersion state. Therefore, it cannot be supplied commercially as an emulsion concentrate, and has to be emulsified just before paper making by emulsifying machine. Moreover, at an acidic region employing aluminium sulfate as a fixing agent, the sizing efficiency develops slowly and is low immediately after paper making.
As described above, the insufficiency of the sizing effect of conventional alkenylsuccinic anhydride emulsions immediately after acidic papex making is considered to be due to the facts that the emulsion sizing agent is fixed in an unchanged acid anhydride form, undergoiny slow reaction of the alkenylsuccinic anhydride with pulp in an acidic region, and long tîme is required in reaction of the alkenylsuccinic anhydride w-i-th water to form alkenylsuccinic acid to produce sizing effect upon reaction with aluminum sul~ate. Accordingly, i~ alkenylsuccinic acid preliminarily formed from alkenylsuccinic anhydride can be emulsified, rapid reaction thereof with aluminium sulfate and sufficient sizing effect are expected to be achie~-~ed.
Alkenylsuccinic acids, which is highly hydrophilic, cannot readily be emulsified. Therefore it is extremely difficult with con~entional technique to prepare the emulsion of the alkenylsuccinic acid which is storable stably for a long time in a high concentration.
,;,~.i'~i?i.,{1'~
As described above, when alkenylsuccinic anhydride is emulsified with conventional technique, the anhydride reacts with water in the emulsion to form alkenylsuccinic acid, giving an alkenylsuccinic acid emulsion. In the process of conversion of alkenylsuccinic anhydride to alkenylsuccinic acid, however, the emulsion state changes, giving no stable emulsion of alkenylsuccinic acid. In other words, even though an emulsion of alkenylsuccinic anhydride can be prepared temporarily in a high concentration, the alkenylsuccinic anhydride reacts with water in the emulsion to change into alkenylsuccinic acid, causing simultaneously coagulation, precipitation or separation without keeping stable emulsion state. So that a stable emulsion cannot be obtained which contains alkenylsuccinic acid in a high concentration.
The inventors of the present invention made comprehellsive ~tudy to utilize the sup~riox properties of alkenylsuccinic acid as a sizing agent in an emulsion type to solve the a~orementioned problems. As a result, the present inventors have found that a suitably selected emulsifier and/or an anionic polymer type dispersant containing a proper monomer component and/or a hydrocarbon resin containing no acid group makes an emulsion extremely stable in storage and to produce excellent sizing efficiency in paper making even at a low ,. ~ . . ;
:~
addition ratio, at high temperature, and in about a neutral pH region, which could not be achieved by conventional saponified alkenylsuccinic acid type sizing agents, and completed the present invention.
SU~RY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention intends to provide a novel sizing agent comprising alkenylsuccinic acid, which is free from ~he disadvantages of saponified alkanylsuccinic acid type sizing agents and alkenylsuccinic anhydride type emulsion sizing agent, and produces excellent sizing efficiency in paper making at high temperature over a broad pH range at a low addition ratio even immediately after the paper making t and has high storage s~ability at a high concentration.
The present invention provides an emulsified alkenylsuccinic acid sizing agent having a solid content of not less than 25 % by weight, comprising a composition having mors than 25 parts by weight o~ alkenylsuccinic acid derived from reaction of a branched internal olefin of 12 - 18 carbons with maleic anhydride, and being dispersed in water by an emulsifier and/or an anionic polymex type dispersant.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The sizing agent of the present invention having the aforementioned constitution may be prepared by any of known conventional emulsifying methods, among which inversion methods are applicable most simply. In one method, alkenylsuccinic acid and a hydrocarbon resins are melt-blended thoroughly, and thereto an emulsifier and/or a polymer type dispersant are added and mixed sufficiently. Then water is added dropwise wikh stirring to cause phase inversion, thereby giving readily a sizing agent of the present invention.
In another inversion method, the whole or a portion of an emulsifier and/or a polymer type dispersant is dissolved in water instead of preliminary to a composition having more than 25 parts by weight of alkenylsuccinic acid and the emulsification is conducted by phase inversion.
Furthermore, by using a high-pressure emulsifying machine, a finely stable alkenylsuccinic acid emulsion can be provided. In this case, a composition ?
having more than 50 parts by weight of alkenylsuccinic acid is melt-blended by heating, and thereto hok water and an emlllsifier and/or a polymer type dispersant are added to conduct a preliminary emulsification using a homogenizer, then emulsification is conducted using a high pressure emulsifying machine.
Still another emulsifying method is naturally practicable also in which a composition having more than 25 parts by weight of alkenylsuccinic acid is dissolved in a water~insoluble organic solvent such as benzene and , _ _ ~ _ .

8 ~ ~
toluene, thereto water and an emulsifying agent and/or a polymer type dispersant are added, the mixture is emulsified by means of a homogenizer, a high-pressure emulsifying machine, and the like, and thereafter the organic solvent is distilled off.
In the present invention, further stable sizing effect can be achieved by u~ing a hydrocarbon type resin having no acid group. The mixing ratio is 75 to 5 parts by weight of hydrocarbon type r~sin and 25 to 95 parts by weight of alkenylsuccinic acid.
The alkenylsuccinic acid used in the present invention is prepared by reacting alkenylsuccinic anhydride with an equimolar water.
The alkenylsuccinic anhydride is prepared in a known method by addition reaction of maleic anhydride to an olefin. The olefin is desirably a branched internal olefin having 12 to 18 carbons in view of the sizi.ny e~ect. Although an alkenylsuccinic acid derived from a linear olefin is less effective in sizing, it may be blended partially with the alkenylsuccinic acid derived from a branched olefin within the range that the effect of the present invention is not impaired.
By using alkenylsuccinic anhydride in place of alkenylsuccinic acid, an aqueous emulsion containing alkenylsuccinic anhydride aan be obtained in a similar emulsification method. In this emulsion, the , , , ~ 2 ~ 0 ~
alkenylsuccinic anhydride reacts with water in the ~mulsion to become alkenylsuccinic acid in one or two days. However, owing to coexistance of the hydrocarbon type resin of the present i~vention, the emulsion state does not change at all during the conversion of the alkenylsuccinic anhydride to the alkenylsuccinic acid, without causing coagulation, precipitation, nor separation, being different from the emulsion containing only the alkenylsuccinic anhydride. Thus the sizing agent of the present in~ention containing the alkenylsuccinic acid is obtained in a stable form.
Thus/ in a case where an alkenylsuccinic anhydride alone is emulsified, the addition of a hydrocarbon type resin is essential. In a case where an alkenylsuccinic acid is emulsified, however, the addition of~a hydrocarbon type resin is not necessarily required.
The hydrocarbon type resin employed in the present invention may have no acid group (a.g., carboxyl group), and is compatible with the alkenylsuccinic acid or the alkenylsuccinic anhydride. In view of improvement of emulsifiability of the alkenylsuccinic acid and improvement of emulsion stability, the preferable resin includes aromatic resins, aliphatic resins, and aromatic-aliphatic mixed petroleum resins which are produced by polymerizing a cracked petroleum fraction having a boiling point in the range of from 20 to 280C derived by i , ".

Although the hydrocarbon type resin employed in the present invention, which contains no acidic group, gives little sizing effect by itself, it serves to improve remarkably the emulsifiability and the emulsion stability when used mixedly with the alkenylsuccinic acid.

When a solid content concentration of the sizingagent is 1 to 70% by weight, a stable emulsion can be obtained. However, when it is less than 25~ by weight, it is not practical in view of high transporting cost.
The solid content concentration means COmpQnentS other than water in the sizing agent.
The sizing agent of the present invention may be added to paper material in any step before ths completion of the paper making in the same manner as in conventional rosin type sizing agents. For example, the sizing agent of the present invention is fixed onto pulp by adjusting the pH of pulp slurry to be about 4.0 - 7.0 by addition of aluminium sulfate before or after addition of the sizing agent in or after a beating step. The sizing agent of the present invention may be used in combination with a conventional sizing agent such a~ a rosin type sizlng agent, a petroleum resin sizing agent, and the like in an arbitrar~ ratio.

< Storage Stability Test >
Alkenylsuccinic acid type emulsion sizing agents prepared as described in Examples 1 - 20 and in Comparative examples 1, 3, 4 and 6, respectively, was taken in an amount of 25 g in a 50-ml glass bottle. The sizing agents were kept standing at room temperature (25C). The stability was observed visually after one day, 7 days, and 60 days. Less stable sizing agents caused deposition or separation of an oily matter at the bottom of the bottle or the top of the liquid.
Incidentally, the sizing agents of Comparative Examples 2 and 5 are not tested for the storage stability because they are not of emulsion types but o~ saponified types.
~ The results are shown in Table 1.

Bleached kraft hardwood pulp was diluted wit.h tap water to a pulp concentration of 2.5 ~, and was beated by means of a beater to attain Canadian f.reeness of about 450 ml. The resulting pulp slurry was diluked .
to a concentration of 2.0 % by weight with tap water at a temperatuxe of 50~C. With stirring, aluminium sulfate (in an amount of 1.0 % by weight based on pulp) was added thereto. Subsequen~ly, the slurry was diluted to a concentration of 0.5 % by weight with water of pH 4.5 at 50C, and one of the sizing agents of Examples 1 - 20 and Comparative Examples 1 - 6 was added thereto (in an amount of 0.3 % by weight). Paper was made from the slurry by use of a TAPPI standard machine (the basis weight of the finished paper: 60 g/m~). The resulting wet paper was pressed and dried in a conventional manner.
The obtained finished paper was tested for sizing efficiency immediately after drying and after conditioning for one day in a conditioning room at temperature of 20C at humidity of 65%RH by Stockigt me~hod according to JIS P 8122.
For a high-pH paper making test, evaluation was also made by using aluminium sulfate in an amount of 0.7 % by weight based on pulp, and dilution-water and paper-making-water o pH 6.0~ In E~amples 1 - 20 and Comparative Examples 4 and 6, the sizing agents were used 10 days after emulsiication.

Although the hydrocarbon type resin employed in the present invention, which contains no acidic group, gives little sizing effect by itself, it serves to improve remarkably the emulsifiability and the emulsion stability when used mixedly with the alkenylsuccinic acid. The mixing ratio of the alkenylsuccinic acid and the hydrocarbon type resin, which are the main constituent of the si~ing agent of the present invention i`s- 25 to 55 % by weight o the alkenylsuccinic acid and 75 to 5 % by weight of the hydrocarbon type resin. If desired, other reslnous material may be incorporated in the composition, such as rosin, and a modified rosin such as a reaction product of rosin with an ~,~-unsaturated polybasic acid, disproportionated rosin, polymerized rosin, hydrogenated rosin, a reaction product of rosin with formaldehyde, fatty acid, tall oil, wax, hydrocarbons and the like. In this case, the total proportion of the alkenylsuccinic acid and the hydrocarbon type resin is preferably not less than SO %

The copolymer (or polymer) of the polymer type dispersant contains the component (A) in a ratio of from 5 to 100 % by weight, preferably from 20 to 95% by weight, and the component (B) in a ratio of 95 to 0 % by ~eight, preferably from 80 to 5 % by weight, based on th~
total monomers. At the content of the component (A) of less than 5 % by weight, dispersion effec~ is not achievable. The polymer type dispersant is synthesized by copolymerization accordlng to a known emulslon polymerization or solution polymerization method. ThP
partially or wholly saponified copolymer is derived by saponifying the resulting copolymer with an alkali such . _ , .
as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide. The re~uired saponification degree depends on the application field, and is not specially limited. The number average molecular weight of the anionic polymer type dispersant is not higher than 500,000, preferably in the range of from 10,000 to 300,000.

When a solid content concentration of the sizingagent is 1 to 70% by weight, a stable emulsion can be obtained. However, when it is less than 25~ by weight, it is not practical in view of high transporting cost.
The solid content concentration means COmpQnentS other than water in the sizing agent.
The sizing agent of the present invention may be added to paper material in any step before ths completion of the paper making in the same manner as in conventional rosin type sizing agents. For example, the sizing agent of the present invention is fixed onto pulp by adjusting the pH of pulp slurry to be about 4.0 - 7.0 by addition of aluminium sulfate before or after addition of the sizing agent in or after a beating step. The sizing agent of the present invention may be used in combination with a conventional sizing agent such a~ a rosin type sizlng agent, a petroleum resin sizing agent, and the like in an arbitrar~ ratio.
The amount to be used tamount of addition) of the sizing agent of the present invention, in internal sizing, is in the range of from 0.01 to 5.0 % hy weight, preferably from 0.05 to 3.0 % by weight based on the dry pulp weight.
The present invention is deseribed in more detail by reference to examples and comparative examples without limiting thereby the invention in any way. The 8 ~ ~
term ~parts is based on weight unless otherwise mentioned.
< Storage Stability Test >
Alkenylsuccinic acid type emulsion sizing agents prepared as described in Examples 1 - 20 and in Comparative examples 1, 3, 4 and 6, respectively, was taken in an amount of 25 g in a 50-ml glass bottle. The sizing agents were kept standing at room temperature (25C). The stability was observed visually after one day, 7 days, and 60 days. Less stable sizing agents caused deposition or separation of an oily matter at the bottom of the bottle or the top of the liquid.
Incidentally, the sizing agents of Comparative Examples 2 and 5 are not tested for the storage stability because they are not of emulsion types but o~ saponified types.
~ The results are shown in Table 1.
Sizing Efficiency Test >
Bleached kraft hardwood pulp was diluted wit.h tap water to a pulp concentration of 2.5 ~, and was beated by means of a beater to attain Canadian f.reeness of about 450 ml. The resulting pulp slurry was diluked .
to a concentration of 2.0 % by weight with tap water at a temperatuxe of 50~C. With stirring, aluminium sulfate (in an amount of 1.0 % by weight based on pulp) was added thereto. Subsequen~ly, the slurry was diluted to a concentration of 0.5 % by weight with water of pH 4.5 at 50C, and one of the sizing agents of Examples 1 - 20 and Comparative Examples 1 - 6 was added thereto (in an amount of 0.3 % by weight). Paper was made from the slurry by use of a TAPPI standard machine (the basis weight of the finished paper: 60 g/m~). The resulting wet paper was pressed and dried in a conventional manner.
The obtained finished paper was tested for sizing efficiency immediately after drying and after conditioning for one day in a conditioning room at temperature of 20C at humidity of 65%RH by Stockigt me~hod according to JIS P 8122.
For a high-pH paper making test, evaluation was also made by using aluminium sulfate in an amount of 0.7 % by weight based on pulp, and dilution-water and paper-making-water o pH 6.0~ In E~amples 1 - 20 and Comparative Examples 4 and 6, the sizing agents were used 10 days after emulsiication. In Comparative Example 3, the alkenylsucc:inic anhydride emulsion sizing agen~ was used immediately aft,er emulsification, since the emulsion was so poor in storage stability that the emulsion state could not be kept for 10 days after the emulsification.
< Mechanical Stability Test ~
Mechanical stability of the sizing agents of Examples 15 and 16 and Comparative Example 1 was conducted according to:JIS K-6387. Specifically, in an apparatus (Maron testing machine) described in JIS K-, _ - 15 - .
6387, 50 g of the sizing agent which was diluted to 10%
concentration was added and tested for 30 minutes with 10 kg loading, then the sludge occurrenca was observed. The results are shown in Table 3. Example 15 provides less sludge as compared to Comparative Example 1. Example 16 in which acrylamide type soluble polymer was added provides no sludge.
