Abstract:
A composition consisting essentially of a mixture of:(i) a synthetic, carboxylated surface size containing at least about 40 mole percent hydrophobic groups and at least about 25 mole percent of carboxylatd groups selected from the group consisting of hydrolyzed styrene-maleic anhydride copolymers, styrene-maleic acid salt copolymers, styrene-(meth)acrylate copolymers, styrene-(meth)acrylic acid copolymers, and acrylonitrile-(meth)acrylate salt copolymers;(ii) a substantially hydrophilic polyacrylamide, wherein the ratio of said surface size to said polyacrylamide is from about 30-95 parts by weight surface size to about 70-5 parts by weight polyacrylamide; and(iii) a crosslinking agent.
