MATEXIL DAN
Description:
It is a high performance, non-staining dispersing agent for the production of level dyed
shades on polyester with disperse dyes in high temperature exhaust dyeing systems. It
possesses in-built dispersing action on polyester oligomer to eliminate problems of lower
rub-fastness in package dyeing and simultaneously clears oligomer residues in the machine.
Properties:
Chemical type : Modified condensation product based on sulphonic acid salts.
Appearance : Brown liquid.
Ionic nature : Anionic.
Solubility : Readily soluble in water.
Compatibility : Stable under acid and alkaline conditions.
Features:
Does not stain polyester and ensures optimum brightness and colour clarity even in
pale shades and with fluorescent optical whiteners.
Maintains its high dispersing efficiency throughout heating and cooling cycle and so
prevents dyestuff agglomeration and surface re-deposition which if often encountered
in heavy shades.
It has excellent in-built dispersing action on polyester oligomer and can be used as
an efficient cleaning agent for oligomer deposits that may have accumulated in the
dyeing equipment
Maintains a stable dispersion in the presence of high electrolyte concentration and is
therefore suitable for use in one-bath dyeing processes for polyester cellulosic and
polyester wool blends.
Is low foaming and highly effective even at low concentration levels in the dyebath.
Application:
1. In circulating liquor yarn package and
beam dyeing machines 0.5 – 1 g/l in the dye liquor
2. In jet machines 0.25 – 0.5 g/l in the dyebath
3. For initial machine cleaning of earlier oligomer deposits
Treatment in an aqueous bath containing
2 – 4 g/l Matexil-DAN
2 - 3 g/l Caustic soda solid
1 – 3 g/l Sodium hydrosulphite for 20 mins at 120 – 130ºC
Subsequent cleaning is not generally necessary if the recommended levels of
Matexil -DAN are employed during dyeing.
Storage: This product may be stored upto six months in a sealed container. Containers
should be stored in a cool, dry area. Extended storage at elevated temperatures or exposure
to direct heat or sunlight could reduce product life. Keep containers sealed when not in use.
Packing: 50kg & 200 kg HMHDPE containers.
