Key Applications in Textile Manufacturing
1. Warp Sizing Agent
• Strengthens Yarns: Forms a protective film on warp yarns, reducing breakage during weaving.
• Easy Removal: Washes off completely during desizing without residue, ensuring smooth fabric finishing.
• Improved Weaving Efficiency: Reduces friction and static, enhancing loom productivity.
2. Printing Thickener (Replacing Alginate)
• Vibrant, Precise Prints:
High DS (≥1.3) ensures electrolyte resistance (pH 3–12), preventing dye migration. Provides uniform viscosity for dye pastes enhances color sharpness and pattern clarity on cotton, silk, and synthetics.
• Precise Print Definition: High Color Yield: Minimizes dye migration, improving pattern clarity on cotton, polyester, and blends.
• Superior Rheology:
High structural viscosity (PVI <0.5 vs. alginate’s 0.8) enables fine-detail printing for intricate designs.
• Cost & Performance Edge:
30% higher paste yield than alginate, reducing usage. Compatible with digital and screen printing.
• Eco-Friendly: Replaces synthetic thickeners, reducing environmental impact.
2. Fabric Finishing
• Softening & Anti-Static: Enhances fabric hand feel and reduces static buildup.
• Dimensional Stability: Helps control shrinkage in natural and synthetic fabrics.
4. Dyeing Assistant
• Level Dyeing: Promotes even dye absorption, preventing patchiness.
• Reduced Dye Waste: Improves dye fixation, lowering water and chemical consumption.
Technical Specifications
• Appearance: White to off-white free-flowing powder, or dyed brown
