POLYCOL-EHS

 
(Mecerising Wetting Agent)
 
  In order to impart luster, increased strength and improved dye uptake on cotton fabric or yarn, they are mercerised before or after bleaching using 24% (56°Tw) aq. caustic soda solution. Due to high surface tension of the caustic solution used in mercerisation, use of wetting agent for instantaneous wetting of yarn / fabric becomes necessary.  
     
  POLYCOL - EHS facilitates wetting of and penetration in the fibre by caustic soda solution efficiently resulting in uniform mercerisation.  
     
  GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS  
 
APPEARANCE :- Pale to yellow, clear liquid.
SOLUBILITY :- Miscible with water and 24 % caustic soda solution.
pH (2% aq. Solution) :- 7-9
IONIC NATURE :- Anionic
FOAM FORMATION :- Collapse immediately.
STABILITY :- Stable to hard water and highly concentrated alkali.
 
     
  SALIENT FEATURES  
 
1) Provides excellent wetting & penetrating action in ( 25-30o Baume / 48-52o Twaddle ) caustic solutions.
2) Being noncresylic, it is free from handling hazards.
3) Gives low foaming in caustic soda liquors.
4) Provides high degree of mercerisation of gray yarns and fabrics to ensure improvement in dyeing properties
 
     
  APPLICATION  
  POLYCOL - EHS is recommended to be used, in the liquor of 22.4% Caustic Soda solution @ 2 ml/l.  
     
  On cotton knit & hosiery : POLYCOL – EHS is added to caustic lye of required strength @ 2 - 4 gpl. and then sprayed on the fabric as it is drawn over circular expanders under controlled tension followed by washing out the residual caustic before further processing.  
     
  On 100% cotton / cellulose based woven fabrics : Caustic lye of desired strength containing 2 – 5 gpl. of POLYCOL – EHS is used for impregnation of gray fabric at desired temp. i.e. ( 20o – 40oC ) Excess liquor is squeezed out by a mangle & fabric is passed through series of washing tanks and then it is piled wet overnight and then scoured & bleached.
