Americos Anti-OzoneFunction:Americos Anti-Ozone is originally formulated to provide excellent ozone fastness. It is carefully blended to achieve special Anti-Ozone chemistry while containing efficient waxing property to prohibit damage on the colour and ozone fastness when treated material is exposed to the sun.
Americos Anti-Ozone to a certain extent can also act as an excellent and economically sewing/napping lubricant exhibiting high heat stability designed to dramatically improve the sewing and napping performance of goods made from cellulosic, wool and synthetic fibers. This product not only reduces equipment failure rates but also imparts a soft hand to the treated fabric
Features : - Is primarily designed to improve ozone fastness
- Also recommended for exhaust and padding operation
- Produces a soft, full handle.
- Exhibits no tendency for sublimation.
- Does not influence the shade or fastness properties of dyed goods
- Does not affect the whiteness of brightened goods
- Minimizes needle breakage and optimizes machine efficiency
- Improves ozone fastness
