Synthetic wet-strength resins
Synthetic resins
We offer standard cationic wet-strength resins of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation as well as resins providing a temporary wet-strength effect.
Synthetic resins are widely used in paper production. Their use has a very significant impact on paper quality and its subsequent application. In the paper industry, synthetic resins act as adherent substances. Adherent substances are responsible for increasing the resistance of paper products to liquid penetration. In practice, it is the use of synthetic resins that allows us to print, write and paint on paper without worrying about the colour bleeding through to the other side of the sheet.
Due to their action, synthetic resins are utilised in the production process of many paper grades. They are used in the production from virgin fiber – cellulose and waste paper.
Synthetic resins – offer
To meet the needs and expectations of our Customers, the TSC Integrity for Paper brand offers a wide selection of chemical additives for paper production, including synthetic resins. Our permanent range includes standard cationic wet-strength resins of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation as well as resins providing a temporary wet-strength effect.
Our offer includes resins with the lowest AOX content used in the production of tea bags. The concentration of our resins ranges from 10–25%. The proposed resins comply with ISEGA, Blue Angel and Nordic Swan standards.
Customers interested in purchasing synthetic resins are encouraged to explore our range in detail and contact us in case of questions or doubts. TSC Advisors will answer all your questions and help you choose the optimal preparations for your paper manufacturing operation. We also invite you to explore our offer of other chemical additives for paper production and wastepaper processing. Our range also includes optical brighteners.

Dyestuffs
We offer anionic and cationic, intermediate and direct dyestuffs in liquid and powder forms.
Synthetic Wet-Strength Resins (WSR)
We offer standard cationic wet-strength resins of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation, as well as resins that provide temporary wet-strength.
Flocculants – Water Treatment
We offer anionic and cationic flocculants in powder and liquid forms for use in flotation units, dehydrators, filters, and various types of dewatering presses.
Coagulants
We offer mineral coagulants such as PAC as well as various types of synthetic coagulants.
Conditioning of Felts and Wires
Resin deposit control. Cationic passivator forming a ‘film’ on the surface of felts and wires, preventing resin and stickies from penetrating their structure. Applied via low-pressure showers.
Dispersants for Inorganic Compounds (Scale Control)
Anionic dispersing agents for vacuum pump protection, preventing scale deposits that clog the pump interior and reduce its efficiency.
Optical Brighteners
Optical brighteners used in pulp bleaching – for offset papers, whiteboards, and hygiene papers.
Wastepaper Repulping
Agents supporting the repulping of wastepaper/papers containing high levels of wet-strength resins (polyamide, urea, melamine, or glyoxal-based).
Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)
CMC enables easy and fast improvement of paper and board strength in dry conditions.
Paper Processing and Converting
We offer high-quality agents for: lamination, initial sheet bonding to the core, tail sealing, core production, paper perfuming, and hot-melt gluing.
