Filling your Wet End Chemistry Toolbox: Part 1 Fundamentals

 
The TAPPI Papermaking Additives Committee is hosting a  quarterly webinar series, Fill your Wet End Chemistry Toolbox, to Improve Your Productivity, Stability, and Efficiency, designed to dive deeper into the science and technology of wet end chemistry. This four-part series will be hosted by Dr. Przemyslaw Pruszynski of Nalco, an Ecolab Company. The first installment of the series, on Thursday, April 2 at noon EST, will focus on fundamentals and is offered at no charge. 
 
This series will expand on certain topics covered in the committee’s annual Wet End Chemistry course. The first installment of the series will focus on fundamentals, which will cover basic terminology related to wet-end chemistry of a paper machine, including:
Additional topics in the series include:
