BRIEF DESCRIPTION<br />
Biodegradable, low foaming wetting agent and lubricant with<br />
leveling, dispersing and emulsifying properties.<br />
Non foaming sequestering agent and protective colloid with<br />
dispersing properties for dyeing of cellulose and polyester<br />
fibres and PES/CEL blends.<br />
Non foaming lubricant for cellulosic fibres and their blends.<br />
Universal after-soaping agent for the removal of reactive dye<br />
hydrolysate or unfixed direct dye from dyeings on cellulosic<br />
material.<br />
Fixative for dyeings and prints with direct and reactive dyes<br />
by exhaust and continuous methods.<br />
In producing different greens with respect<br />
to depth and shade, copper pthalocyanine<br />
turquoise and a brilliant yellow do not<br />
necessarily have same/similar exhaustion and<br />
fixation rate. This creates many problems for<br />
a dyer. At a given situation, choice of colours<br />
could be limited, thanks to Humectol® c liq hc<br />
which monitors and guides the dyestuffs in<br />
the dye-bath to give an acceptable results to<br />
the quality of dyeing thus produced.<br />
