AVCO – BIOLIT 2090 is a surfactant, which possesses very good wetting and cleaning properties, and can therefore be used in a wide range of textile preparation and bleaching processes, such as de-sizing, kier boiling, alkali treatment, bleaching, wetting and washing treatments.
AVCO – BIOLIT 2090 is composed of biodegradable ingredients with no potential for bio-accumulation, and with no evolution of toxic compounds during biodegradation. AVCO – BIOLIT 2090 is environmentally acceptable, and can be regarded as a “GREEN” product.

PROPERTIES & USES:
- Rapid wetting agent, applied in neutral, alkaline and mild acid range, for both
cold and hot liquors, on all types of textiles.
- Very efficient detergent and wetting agent for high speed machines or those with
tendency to foam, e.g. jet machines, overflow machines, high speed continuous
bleaching, scouring and washing ranges.
- Stable to chemicals normally used in textile preparation and bleaching processes,
such as alkalis, mild acids, electrolytes, hypochlorite, sodium-chlorite,
persulphates and hydrogen-peroxide.
- Low foaming wetting agent, suitable for high-speed continuous ranges.
- Good wetting agent for de-sizing bleaching and scouring operations.
- Good kier-boiling agent.
- Can be used in dye-bath, to ensure level pick up of dyestuffs.
- Liquid product, can be dosed as is automatic dosing systems.
