Abstract: A vacuum-packing machine for sucking the excess air from a wrapping bag containing granular substances and others, creating a vacuum inside the wrapping bag. The wrapping bag is placed on a base, and holes are made on the wrapping bag through a sucking hole by a puncturing device. The air inside the wrapping bag is then sucked by an air sucking device, after which, a piston moves, and a seal adhering to the surface of a sponge on top of the piston seals the holes on the wrapping bag. The seal is supplied to the sponge by a seal supplying device. An air blowing pipe is provided to facilitate the peeling off of the seal from a tape containing the seals.

Abstract: An aqueous dispersed solution of a substituted succinic anhydride which comprises an aqueous soluble copolymer (A) having 50 percent or more by mol of (meth)acrylamide (a) 1 percent or more by mol of N,N-dialkylamino.alkyl(meth)acrylamide (b) as monomer ingredients, aqueous soluble copolymer (B) having 50 percent or more by mol of (meth)acrylamide (a), 1 percent or more by mol of N,N-dialkylamino.alkyl(metho)acrylamide (b) and 49 percent or less by mol of other copolymer monomer (c) as monomer ingredients, or both of the dqueous soluble copolymer (A) and the aqueous soluble copolymer (B), and a process for producing an aqueous dispersed solution of a substituted succinic anhydride prepared by dispersing the aqueous soluble copolymer (A) or the aqueous soluble copolymer (B) or a mixture (C) of 99 to 99.9 percent by weight of the substituted succinic anhydride (d) and 10 to 0.

Abstract: A process for making paper using a substituted succinic anhydride as a sizing agent which has the steps of preparing pulp slurry containing (a) an aqueous dispersion of a substituted succinic anhydride in which a cationic tapioca starch containing at least 0.3 percent by weight of basic nitrogen is added and mixed, and (b) a colloidal silica, and forming a paper sheet to improve the retentions of a fine fiber and a filler in the pulp slurry in the sheet forming step and to largely suppress the operation of decreasing the sizing performance of the substituted succinic anhydride with the colloidal silica (b) added as the retention aid, thereby preparing sheet paper having excellent sizing effect. Thus, the process for making paper can not only remarkably reduce the sizing cost but can also efficiently utilize the fine fiber and the filler in the pulp slurry.

Abstract: An improved sizing is feasible by adding into a papermaking pulp slurry an aqueous dispersion prepared by mixing an aqueous solution of an ampholytic acrylamide polymer having both cationic and anionic groups with a liquid substituted succinic anhydride or with an anhydrous liquid mixture of a liquid substituted succinic anhydride and an oil-in-water type surfactant. Such a paper sizing process is very useful for making plasterboard base paper of multilayered structure composed of at least one surface layer having a high hot water resistance and at least one back layer having a good adhesiveness to plaster slush.

Abstract: A cellulose treating agent obtained by dispersing an alkyl ketene dimer in water in the presence of a dispersing agent comprising a reaction product of a polyalkylenepolyamine and a mixture of carboxylic acids containing at least 20% by weight of aliphatic monohydroxymonocarboxylic acids having 9 to 32 carbon atoms or a product obtained by reacting epihalohydrin with said reaction product. This cellulose treating agent existing as a very stable cationic aqueous dispersion of the alkyl ketene dimer is highly effective to impart a water repellency to cellulose fibers and can be used as a well-improved reactive sizing agent for papermaking.
