PRINT-PLUS

(loop Accelerating Agent)

PRINT-PLUS is an excellent accelerator (printing aid) for developing disperse dye prints on polyester by loop steaming / thermofixing.

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS :

APPEARANCE: Colourless to pale yellow transparent liquid.

IONIC NATURE: Nonionic.

pH: 6 - 9.

SOLUBILITY: Readily soluble in water in all proportions.

SALIENT FEATURES :

PRINT-PLUS :

Acts as hydrotropic agent, dissolving the colour in itself & then getting dissolved in aqueous base. This reduces the particle size of the disperse colour, making it easier to penetrate.

Forms the near most layer to the polyester because of its affinity to the same. Disperse colour dissolves in this layer and transfers to the polyester, giving full colour value.

Fixes more amount of dye, leaving very less unfixed dye, to be washed off in subsequent process. This reduces the bleeding of the dye during washing, offering higher probability to obtain tint free, brighter prints.

APPLICATION :

Make the gum paste as usual. Add citric acid or any suitable acid to adjust the pH 5 to 5.5. Add 1Kg of   PRINT-PLUS per 100Kgs. of gum paste. Add predisolved   PRINT-PLUS with the gum paste in adequate quantity of water & mix well to obtain desirable depth and tone of the shade. Print, dry, thermofix, or loop-age as usual. Wash, dry & finish as usual.

PACKING:   50Kgs. net in Plastic Containers.
