Abstract

See full text

An aqueous slurry of mineral particles, for example calcium carbonate and/or calcium hydroxide, has a mineral solids concentration of at least 40% m/m and contains an agent that maintains the slurry at a pumpable viscosity but that acts as a flocculant upon dilution of the slurry. Suitable agents include cationic and amphoteric polyelectrolytes having nitrogen-containing groups, for example polyamines and dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride polymers. The slurries may contain other components for example a synthetic hectorite or a dispersing agent such as a polyacrylate, polymethacrylate or polyphosphate. The slurries are useful in papermaking and in the treatment of sewage.
