Americos Dispersol DX
Introduction :
Americos Dispersol DX is anionic dye dispersing agent. It prevents dyestuff agglomeration and prevents precipitation in dye bath.

The Features of Americos Dispersol DX are :

• Dispersing agent for use in the dyeing of polyester
• Dyeing polyester/wool blends with disperse and acid or 1:2 metal-complex dyes or corresponding dyestuff blends
• Dispersing agent in dyeing with vat dyes
• Dyeing of triacetate fibers with disperse dyes
• Low foaming
• Stable at HT and shows no retardant influence on dyestuff

Properties :
Dyeing of polyester and triacetate fibers with disperse dyes
Americos Dispersol DX is a dispersing agent used to disperse dyes in the preparation bath before dyeing and to maintain the stability of the dispersion during dyeing. The amounts required are 2 g/l Americos Dispersol DX in the preparation bath and 0.5-2 g/l in dye baths, depending on depth of shade and liquor ratio.

Application Method :

1. Preparation of the dye bath liquor. Sprinkle disperse dyes into 10-15 parts soft water (30^° - 40 ^°C) containing dissolved Americos Dispersol DX and stir continuously. Dilute further with water. This liquor is then added to the dye bath.
2. Application in the dye bath to maintain the stability of the dispersion during dyeing, add 0.5-2 g/l pre-dissolved Americos Dispersol DX, depending on depth of shade and liquor ratio, to the warmed dye bath. Then add the normal amounts of carrier required for dyeing at the boil or leveling agents required for HT dyeing. Add thoroughly dispersed dye as usual.

Dyeing cellulosic fibers with vat dyes
When dispersing large quantities of dyes, it is advisable to add 1.5-3 g/l Americos Dispersol DX. When working with vat dyes, Americos Dispersol DX improves the levelness of pigmentation, especially on circulating liquor units. For the exhaust, pigmentation and half-pigmentation processes, add 1.5 - 3 % Americos Dispersol DX

Dyeing polyester/wool blends
Americos Dispersol DX is required to ensure that the dyes remain finely dispersed throughout the dyeing process. This is particularly important when dyeing wound packages and at short liquor ratios. Americos Dispersol DX also has good leveling action on 1:2 metal complex dyes.

Application Method :
Heat the liquor to 30-40 °C and add 1-2 % Americos Dispersol DX (pre-dissolved). Then add acetic acid and the carrier. When the acid and auxiliary have been dispersed evenly, add the well-dispersed or dissolved dyes. Dye and finish as usual.

Americos Sequester 2000

Introduction :

Americos Sequester 2000 is an anionic, low foaming chelating / sequestering agent/ dispersing agent for metal ions and other impurities present in fibers and water. In the dyeing, Americos Sequester 2000 eliminates spotting of goods. It promotes soft hand and absorbency by preventing deposition of salts such of calcium, magnesium and iron. It disperses insoluble salts for easy rinsing.

The advantages of Americos Sequester 2000 are :

• Prevention of pinhole formation due to catalytic oxidation caused by iron during bleaching (chelates iron / heavy metals)
• During dyeing, it prevents spots, shade change and unlevelness by chelating heavy metals and dispersing impurities
• Increased productivity
• Improved rinsing due to scale inhibition (effective at low concentrations, such as in rinse baths)

Properties :
Sequestering Agent Manufacturer,Textile Wetting Agents,Sequestering Agent Supplier,Textile Wetting Agents India Application :

Americos Catalase XL (Highly concentrated hydrogen peroxide killer enzyme)
Introduction :
Americos Catalase XL is highly effective in catalyzing the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water. In textiles processing, this is often the most preferred mode of hydrogen peroxide removal after the bleaching step as the enzyme and the breakdown products are totally inert to Reactive dyestuffs.

Americos Catalase XL enzyme accommodates a broad pH and temperature range and remains effective even at high concentrations of hydrogen peroxide.

Advantages

• Enzyme is completely biodegradable
• Highly effective hydrogen peroxide removal
• Effective over a broad temperature range
• Works well at any residual peroxide level
• Reduces water consumption
• Enzyme and the breakdown products (water and oxygen) have no effect on dyestuffs
• Increase dyeing productivity

Properties:

Removing Hydrogen Peroxide with Americos Catalase XL

Americos Catalase XL removes hydrogen peroxide with very simple system with cost effectiveness and reliability Excess reducing chemical used ? H₂O₂ removed but excess reducing chemical affects dyeing Insufficient reducing chemical used ? H₂O₂ not fully removed and affects dyeing

Removal of Hydrogen Peroxide :
Hydrogen peroxide and other peroxy compounds are commonly used for bleaching in preparation of cellulase based fabrics and yarns. If not completely removed, hydrogen peroxide will cause shade change with some fiber Reactive dyes. Even a small amount of residual hydrogen peroxide, particularly left in creases and folds of fabric, causes change in cast of dye resulting in uneven dyeing.
