Wetting cum de-aerating agents are chemical compounds designed to improve the wetting properties of liquids while also removing the air entrapped inside the substrate and also eliminating foam formation in the liquor. This combination is particularly valuable in processes where both efficient spreading of liquids in alkaline media and foam control are necessary.
Properties:
Due to its excellent wetting action, proper wetting takes place in short time particularly in continuous dyeing which results in a uniform shade. In exhaust application, it helps to remove entrapped air thus leading to thorough wetting before addition of any other chemical. It can also be added in de-sizing by pad batch application to improve pick-up.
CHEMICAL CONSTITUENTS:
- Gots & ZDHC Level – 3 approved product. – free from APEO/NPEO’s.
- High alkali stability – gives excellent Wetting and re-wetting even in high alkaline baths with low foaming.
- Good detergency and emulsifying power to remove water insoluble impurities.
- Produces uniform absorbency for subsequent processes.
- Excellent de-aerating properties.
