Abstract
Cellulosic materials such as paper are internally sized by treating fibers of the cellulosic material, e.g., paper pulp, with a copolymer of an .alpha.,.beta.-ethylenically unsaturated hydrophobic monomer and an ammoniated .alpha.,.beta.-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and a reaction product of epihalohydrin and alkylamine. Internal sizing of the cellulosic material by this method can be carried out over complete range of pH and is not adversely affected by the presence of contaminants such as alum.
