Abstract

In a papermaking process a paper product is formed from a mineral filler containing cellulosic slurry. Retention performance is provided by the sequential addition of a cationic charge-biasing species, an anionic flocculant, and then a certain microparticle. A shear stage is interposed between the flocculant addition and the microparticle addition. The microparticle is a inorganic, cationic source of aluminum.
