POSITEK™ 4G Microparticle Technology

Unlock new levels of performance and efficiency with POSITEK™ 9000—our next-generation colloidal silica dispersion engineered to elevate papermaking operations. Designed to enhance On-Machine Efficiency (OME), sheet quality, and production consistency, POSITEK 9000 delivers measurable gains in retention and drainage—all while maintaining cost competitiveness. 

As a key component of the comprehensive POSITEK™ papermaking performance package, POSITEK 9000 works synergistically with a cationic coagulant or starch and a high molecular weight flocculant to optimize retention, drainage, and formation, helping paper makers achieve superior sheet properties and operational reliability. 

Why Choose POSITEK 9000? 

  • Boost Productivity: Improve water removal and sheet pressing efficiency, reducing energy consumption and increasing throughput. 

  • Enhance Sheet Quality: Achieve better formation and uniformity for higher-grade paper products. 

  • Lower Operational Costs: Reduce reliance on wet-end additives and fiber inputs while improving additive efficiency. 

  • Sustainable Impact: Support environmental goals through improved drainage and reduced energy use.
