AVCO-LIT W

UNIVERSAL WETTING AND WASHING AGENT

AVCOLIT W 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 surfactant
Compatibility Is not compatible with cationic products
pH (10% sol.) 7 ± 1
Resistance to: Mild Acids, Alkalies, 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. Good wetting agent, applied in neutral, alkaline and mild acid range, for both
    cold and hot liquors, on all types of textiles.
  2. Stable to chemicals normally used in textile preparation and bleaching processes,
    such as alkalies, mild acids, electrolytes, hypo-chlorite, sodium-chlorite,
    presulphates and hydrogen peroxide.
  3. Good dispersing agent to pigments and dyes.
  4. Does not destroy enzyme activity.
  5. Good wetting agent for de-sizing, bleaching and scouring operations.
  6. As being free-rinsing, AVCOLIT W is excellent for preparation of fabrics to be
    water-proofed.
  7. Good kier-boiling agent.
  8. Can be used in dye-bath, to ensure level pick up of dyestuffs.
