UNICHEM RD-1421

Retention Aid, Save-all Treatment for Paper and Board Making

Application

UNICHEM RD-1421 flocculent designed for papermaking is formulated high

molecular weight polymeric chemicals, which increases retention and drainage
on wire, improve save-all efficiency and reduce the solid load going into the
effluent. This chemical is effective over a wide range of pH encountered in
papermaking. UNICHEM RD range of flocculants is recommended for high
shear systems to improve efficiency.

Directions for Use

UNICHEM RD polymer may be loaded manually or pumped directly into the

dilution tank from the container. Prepare stock solution (1.0 to 1.5%w/v) of the
polyelectrolyte using filtered water. Prepare feed solution by diluting the stock
solution about ten times directly or on-line using filtered water. For small
systems chemicals can be dosed by gravity or by dosing equipment. However,
for large systems use of dosing system is recommended for optimum efficiency.

Handling

Do not store the material in open. Keep the container tightly closed when not in
use. These products exhibit very low order of oral toxicity. No special care is
required in handling these products.
