The application of PAM (polyacrylamide) as retention aid is mainly used in the paper industry to improve the strength and retention of paper through its flocculation effect.PAM improves the strength of paper by forming physical cross-links between fibres and enhancing the stability of the fibre network. In addition, PAM can also effectively flocculate fine fibres and fillers to improve their retention in the paper, reducing the loss of raw materials and pollution of the environment.
