About ALQUAT-RD (Dye Fixing Agents)
Alquat-RD is a non-formaldehydebased dye fixing agent for cellulosic fabrics. It improves the wet fastness andwash fastness properties of direct and reactive dyeing on cellulosic fibers. Toimprove the wet fastness and wash fastness properties of direct and dischargeprints with direct and reactive dyestuffs. It also improves fastness toperspiration fastness.
Enhancing Color Fastness in TextilesALQUAT-RD is designed to significantly improve the color fastness of dyed fabrics. By forming strong bonds with dye molecules, it prevents color bleeding, even during rigorous washing cycles. This property ensures textiles retain their vibrancy and longevity, making ALQUAT-RD an essential component for textile manufacturers seeking consistently high-quality results.
Versatile Application MethodsWhether you use the padding, exhaust, or spray method, ALQUAT-RD adapts seamlessly to your existing processes. Its liquid form dissolves quickly in water, allowing uniform application across the fabric and ensuring effective dye fixation. Compatibility with anionic and nonionic auxiliaries offers added flexibility during production.
Safe, Efficient, and Reliable SolutionALQUAT-RD's non-toxic formulation, mild odor, and cationic nature make it a safe option for operators and end-users alike. Carefully manufactured from dicyandiamide and formaldehyde, it is delivered in sturdy plastic drums or carboys to preserve the integrity and freshness of the product over its 12-month shelf life.
