AVCO-BLANK AK

UNIVERSAL WETTING AND WASHING AGENT

AVCOBLANK AK is an anionic 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.

SPECIFICATION:

Appearance Slightly yellowish liquid
Chemical nature Anionic phosphate ester derivative.
Compatibility Is not compatible with cationic products.
pH (10% sol.) 7.5 ± 0.5
Resistance to: mild acids, mild alkalis, electrolytes, hard water } Good
Solubility Miscible with water at any ratio.
Storage Freezes below O°C. Fully usable after thawing. Shelf life is at least 12 months.

PROPERTIES & USES:

  1. Universal wetting agent applied in neutral, alkaline and mild acid range, for
    both cold and hot liquors, on all types of textiles.
  2. Very efficient detergent and wetting agent for all types of machines such as
    overflow machines, high speed continuous bleaching, scouring and washing ranges.
    In jet machines addition of an antifoam is recommended.
  3. Stable to chemicals normally used in textile preparation and bleaching processes,
    such as alkalis, mild acids, electrolytes, hypo-chlorite, sodium-chlorite,
    persulphates and hydrogen peroxide.
  4. Good dispersing agent to pigments and dyes.
  5. Does not destroy enzyme activity.
  6. Excellent detergent for continuous and long bath de-sizing, bleaching and
    scouring-operations.
  7. Good kier-boiling agent.
  8. Can be used in dye-bath, to ensure level pick up of dyestuffs.
  9. Good soaping agent for reactive dyestuffs.
