Liquid AKD

Liquid AKD – Ready-to-Use Internal Sizing for Paper

Liquid AKD (Alkyl Ketene Dimer) is a high-efficiency internal sizing agent designed for neutral and alkaline papermaking. Supplied as a ready-to-use emulsion, it provides excellent water resistance, improved surface strength, and enhanced printability by forming a hydrophobic layer on cellulose fibers.

Our Liquid AKD features stable emulsification, fine particle size, and high retention, ensuring uniform distribution and consistent performance across a variety of pulp types. Its easy-to-use formulation simplifies dosing, reduces preparation time, and maintains high efficiency even in high-speed paper production systems.
