Abstract
A method for the manufacture of paper comprising the steps of: a) forming an aqueous cellulosic papermaking slurry; b) adding an effective coagulating amount of a coagulant and a flocculant to said cellulosic papermaking slurry, wherein said coagulant is prepared by blending i) an effective coagulating amount of an aqueous conditioned colloidal silica sol with an average particle size within the range of from 1 to 150 nm and wherein the aqueous colloidal silica sol is conditioned by contacting said sol with a strong acid cation exchange resin, and ii) an effective coagulating amount of a cationically-charged water-soluble polymeric coagulant; c) draining said cellulosic suspension to form a sheet; and, d) drying said sheet. The components of the invention are blended together so that addition is simultaneous. The colloidal silica is conditioned by passing over a cationic exchange resin prior to addition of cationic polymer. The term conditioned as used herein refers to the act of passing the colloidal silica over a cationic exchange resin.
