Paper chemicals
Mellisol SAO
Fortified Rosin is a high-performance paper sizing chemical designed to reduce paper absorbency and improve resistance to penetration by water, ink, and aqueous liquids. It is commonly used in acidic, neutral, and modified paper-making processes to enhance paper strength, printability, and surface properties.
The product is generally supplied as a rosin dispersion/emulsion or in solid form depending on the application. It provides excellent sizing performance when properly emulsified and retained on cellulose fibers.
Mellisol ID
A paper defoamer is a specially formulated foam-control agent based on silicone, mineral oil, fatty acid ester, or polymer technology. It rapidly breaks existing foam and prevents the formation of stable foam during paper production. It is designed to perform effectively in alkaline, acidic, and high-solid paper-making systems while maintaining compatibility with pulp additives, sizing agents, and coating chemicals.

MELLISOL LA
Dry strength resin is a water-soluble polymeric additive designed to increase fiber-to-fiber bonding in paper sheets. It works by improving the interaction between cellulose fibers and increasing the strength of the paper network. It is widely used in packaging paper, kraft paper, board, and printing paper manufacturing.
Common dry strength resins include cationic starch, polyacrylamide (PAM), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and synthetic polymer-based strength additives.
MEllisol AKD
AKD is a wax-like chemical compound supplied as an AKD wax dispersion/emulsion for use in modern paper-making systems. It is widely used as an alternative to traditional rosin sizing, especially in neutral and alkaline papermaking where it provides excellent sizing efficiency, improved paper permanence, and better compatibility with calcium carbonate fillers.
MELLISOL FIX
A paper fixing agent is a cationic polymer-based additive designed to neutralize the negative charge of cellulose fibers, fines, fillers, and dissolved organic substances. It promotes better attachment of colorants, sizing chemicals, and other additives to the paper fiber network, resulting in improved retention, cleaner white water, and enhanced paper quality.
Mellisol FW
A fiber wetting agent is a specially formulated blend of surfactants and penetrating agents designed to reduce the surface tension of water and enhance the rapid wetting of cellulose fibers. It improves fiber swelling, promotes better fiber-fiber bonding, and increases the efficiency of pulping, refining, recycling, and paper formation processes.
MELLISOL BD
A paper biocide is a specially formulated antimicrobial agent designed to inhibit microbial growth in papermaking systems. It prevents the formation of biological slime deposits, foul odors, paper defects, and machine fouling. The product is selected based on compatibility with pulp chemistry, process pH, temperature, and regulatory requirements.
