| TYXANOL |
| TYXANOL is a dye fixing agent used
to improve the wet fastness properties of direct & reactive dyed / printed cellulosic goods. |
| * Chemical Nature : | Cationic. |
| * Chemical Composition : | Based on dicyanamdiamide (DCDA). |
| * Physical Appearance : | colourless clear to slight cloudy liquid. |
| * Chemical Compatibility : | good with cationic & non-ionic product. Should not be used with anionic product. |
| * pH (as such) : 3.0 - 4.0 | |
| * % Solid content : 46.0 - 50.0 | |
| ( @ 120°C for 2 hrs.) | |
| * Solubility : readily soluble in cold water. | |
| Properties : | |
| * Tyxanol improves colour
fastness to perspiration. * Tyxanol prevents bleeding & staining of dye from the dyed or printed fabrics with direct dyes. * Tyxanol affects light fastness of direct & reactive dyes if applied in excessive concentration ( as in case with all cationic products) * Tyxanol should not be used on pale shade of reactive dyes where it is unnecessary anyway & may reduce light fastness of some dyes. |
|
| Applications : | |
| * Tyxanol should
be always used as an after treatment & to never be added directly to
the dye bath. * For pale shade (direct dyes only) dosages of Tyxanol is from 0.5 - 1.5 % by exhaustion after 20' at 50 °C & 15 - 30 gm/lt by padding @ 50 - 60 °C. * For medium & Deep shades the dosage of Tyxanol is 1.5 - 3.0 % by exhaution for 20' @ 50 °C & 15 30 by padding @ 50 - 60 °C. Storage : Stable under normal conditions. |
