The invention relates to a composition and method for manufacture of paper, board, tissue or the like. The composition comprises an amphoteric polymer component, which has a weight average molecular weight of at least 600 000 g/mol, preferably at least 1 000 000 g/mol, more preferably at least 2 000 000 g/mol, and at least one synthetic cationic polymer component, which is a copolymer of a polyamidoamine and has a weight average molecular weight ≤550 000 g/mol, preferably ≤500 000 g/mol, more preferably ≤400 000 g/mol and dispersity index more than 15, preferably more than 20, more preferably more than 25.

A process for producing paper or board, which process comprises ad-mixing (I) an aqueous composition of pH ≦6 and (II) at least one water-soluble polymeric anionic compound to a paper stock having a pH in the range from 6 to 8 and then dewatering the paper stock by sheet formation and drying, wherein the aqueous composition comprises (a) polymers having primary amino groups and/or amidine groups to a combined content for these groups of ≧1.5 meq/g of polymer, and (b) 0.01 to 50 mol % of 1,4-cyclohexanedione (b) based on the combined amount of primary amino groups and/or amidine groups of the polymers, and also to the paper or board thus obtained.

Methods of reducing paper dusting in a papermaking process, and a low dusting tissue having increased strength are provided. Application of a polymer comprising at least one amine-containing vinylic or allylic monomer to at least one surface of a paper web during the papermaking process reduces the dusting tendency of the paper, and inpcreases both the wet and dry strength of the paper product.

The present invention discloses a method for detackifying organic contaminants in the process of pulping and papermaking and a composition used for the same. Specifically, the invention discloses that the water circulation system of pulping and papermaking process can be provided with non-ionic cellulose ether and cationic coagulant in lower amount, through which, the deposition of organic contaminants can be inhibited under the synergistic action of pre-coagulation and detackification.
