case can also make the separation force and cod values worse again table 2 variant a3 b2 b1 from this it is possible to derive the fact that depending on the stock and adhesive system used the optimum fixing agent in this combination of additives has to be found using the combination according to the invention of polyvinyl alcohol bentonite table 2 variant a3 b2 it is clear that the best results with respect to the reduction of the stickiness of microstickies can be achieved if on the other hand the adsorption agent bentonite b2 is replaced by talc a2 then this combination polyvinyl alcohol a3 talc a2 is less effective by far if the separation force values are used as a basis table 2 or even disadvantageous in the case of a different adhesive addition rubber instead of acrylate adhesive table 6 combinations of adsorption agents talc or bentonite with fixing agents were likewise not very effective with respect to reducing the separation force table 4 a broke paper had about 5 solids of an acrylate contact adhesive added to it and this stock mixture was well and thoroughly mixed under practical conditions in a technical centre pulper for a period of about 45 min at a moderate consistency of 6 and a temperature of about 60 u00b0 c the ph of the stock mixture was adjusted to about 6 in the order specified the following were then added to the stock mixture as additives in each case a mixing period of 30 min in the case of polyvinyl alcohol and respectively 10 min being maintained before the addition of the next component the cod content of originally about 320 mg.
