Method of improving retention and drainage in a papermaking process using a diallyl-N,N-disubstituted ammonium halide-acrylamide copolymer and a structurally modified cationic polymer
A method of increasing retention and drainage in a papermaking furnish comprising adding to the furnish an effective amount of a diallyl-N,N-disubstituted ammonium halide/acrylamide copolymer and an effective amount of a cationic structurally-modified water-soluble polymer, the cationic structurally-modified water-soluble polymer prepared by initiating polymerization of an aqueous solution of from about 95 to about 5 mole percent of an acrylamide monomer and from about 5 to about 95 mole percent of a cationic monomer under free radical polymerization conditions to form a polymer solution and adding at least one structural modifier to the polymer solution after at least 30% polymerization of the monomers has occurred.
