soluble nylon
A N-methoxymethyl nylon prepared by treating nylon
66 with formaldehyde, and used in non-aqueous
resizing of paper. Its major importance is that it
can be used in a 2% solution in methyl or ethyl
alcohol and sprayed or brushed on the document
(depending on the fragility of the paper) in cases
where the paper is too weak to handle easily when
wet or where it is suspected or known that the ink
may be sensitive to water. It also imparts
strength to weak papers. (265 )
