Graft polymers are obtainable by free radical polymerization of (A) monomers or monomer mixtures of (a) from 10 to 100% by weight of open-chain N-vinylcarboxamides (b) from 0 to 90% by weight of other, carboxyl-free moneothylenically unsaturated monomers which are copolymerizable with the monomers (a) and (c) from 0 to 5% by weight of monomers containing two or more ethylenically unsaturated, non-conjugated double bonds in the molecule, in the presence of (B) natural substances containing saccharide structures, such as mono-, oligo- and polysaccharides, in a weight ratio (A):(B) of from 95:5 to 20:80 and, if required, subsequent hydrolysis of the amido groups of the polymerized monomers (a) of the graft polymer with formation of amino groups, and said polymers are used as dry and wet strength agents for paper, board and cardboard. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION We claim: 1. A process for the production of paper, board, or cardboard which comprises the step of: adding to paper stock before sheet formation, 0. 1 to 10% by weight, based on dry fiber, of a graft polymer prepared by free radical polymerization of monomers selected from the group consisting of (A) and (B), wherein (A) N-vinylcarboxamides of the formula ##STR11## wherein R. sup. 1 and R. sup. 2 are each H or C. sub. 1 -C. sub. 6 -alkyl; are polymerized in the presence of (B) a compound selected from the group consisting of monosaccharides, oligosaccharides, polysaccharides, oxidatively, hydrolytically or enzymatically degraded polysaccharides, oxidized hydrolytically degraded or oxidized enzymatically degraded polysaccharides, chemically modified mono-, oligo-, or polysaccharides and mixtures thereof; in a monomer weight ratio (A):(B) of from 95:5 to 20:80. 2. The process of claim 1, wherein 2 to 100% of carboxamide groups of said graft polymer are hydrolyzed following said polymerization. 3. The process of claim 1, wherein said N-vinylcarboxamide is N-vinylformamide. 4. The process of claim 1, wherein said weight ratio (A):(B) is from 60:40 to 20:80. 5. The process of claim 1, wherein said graft polymer has a K value of 8-250 measured in a 1% strength aqueous solution of said polymer at pH 7 and at 25. degree. C. 6. The process of claim 5, wherein said K value is from 10-150 measured in a 1% strength aqueous solution of said polymer at pH 7 and at 25. degree. C. 7. The process of claim 2, wherein said polymerization is followed by hydrolysis of 2-97. 3% of said carboxamide groups. 8. The process of claim 7, wherein said polymerization is followed by hydrolysis of 30-95% of said carboxamide groups.
Description:
The present invention relates to graft polymers of natural substances containing saccharide structures or derivatives thereof and open-chain N-vinylcarboxamides and the use of the graft polymers as dry and wet strength agents in the production of paper, board and cardboard
