BERSIZE® ASA Series
Bercen alkenyl succinic anhydride (ASA) technology provide fast reaction rate with cellulose and develops efficiency hydrophobicity in a range of pulp furnishes. As an internal size, ASA has less impact on final product friction properties as compared to competing AKD.
Products in the BERSIZE® ASA Series is the most suitable choice for use in precision sizing with recycled packaging (gluing and converting concerns) grades and printing & writing grades (ink/water balance). Gives papermaker the ability to size systems down to 5.5 pH and presents the lowest cost-in-use sizing chemistry for most wet-end systems. BERSIZE® ASA technology is adopted for use by many leading companies in the Paper industry.
PENTASIZE® ASA technology provides for an equally high performing sizing agent and has an alternate supply chain well-suited to servicing the EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) papermaking markets.
BENEFITS
- Market leading internal sizing products
- Allows manufacturer to tune sizing response for Printing & Writing and Packaging Grades
- Highly reactive hydrophobe
- Diverse product portfolio with sourcing agreements top-tier global suppliers
