Because dry strength additives are often polyelectrolytes, they are able to behave as retention aids. This leads to flocculation of the fibres and to mass distribution (formation) variations in the sheet which can reduce strength. The flocculation can be destroyed irreversibly by shear, which suggests that bridging flocculation is involved.

Mixes with a very low proportion of fine particles which fall below the lower Fuller curve appear to have reduced strength. The required sulphur content is low. 

Correlations have been made between gas-phase ionization potentials of free ions and the redox potentials of isostructural [MXe]"" complexes of the elements of the same row of the periodic table (476). Despite the observation of such correlations, caution must be taken, because they ignore both cr and tt ligand field effects. The latter are often more important in influencing the relative oxidizing or reducing strength of complexes.
