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.
