About ALQUAT-SOL (Weight Reducing Agent)
Alquat-SOL is one such comfort finishing agent developed for chemical modification of polyester fibers. It accelerate hydrolysis of polyester fibers in alkaline caustic bath and exhibit silky lustrous texture coupled with excellent softness and improved drape, static dissipation, moisture absorbency and soil release properties.
Superior Polyester Weight ReductionALQUAT-SOL delivers efficient and consistent polyester weight reduction, enhancing fabric texture and handle with negligible loss in strength. Its stable formulation ensures uniform results across batches, making it preferred for demanding textile finishing applications and high-quality product outcomes.
Safe and Environmentally FriendlyThis agent is non-toxic under recommended usage levels and has excellent biodegradability, ensuring minimal environmental impact during use and disposal. Its composition offers peace of mind for operators and textile manufacturers prioritising both safety and sustainability in their processes.
Easy Handling and ApplicationALQUAT-SOL's clear, liquid state guarantees seamless solubility in water and compatibility with most textile processing chemicals. It can be applied by standard exhaustion or padding methods, allowing integration without major changes to existing processes. The product is packed in convenient 50 kg and 125 kg HDPE drums.
FAQ's of ALQUAT-SOL (Weight Reducing Agent):
Q: How is ALQUAT-SOL applied in the textile industry for weight reduction?
A: ALQUAT-SOL is typically used via exhaustion or padding methods. The recommended dosage is mixed into water (1% solution), and the fabric is processed under specified temperature conditions to achieve even weight reduction with minimal impact on fabric strength.
Q: What storage conditions are best for ALQUAT-SOL?
A: Store ALQUAT-SOL in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight. Keeping the product under these conditions preserves its quality and stability for up to 12 months from the date of manufacture.
Q: When should ALQUAT-SOL be used during textile processing?
A: ALQUAT-SOL is used during the weight reduction phase in polyester fabric processing. It should be applied once the fabric is ready for chemical treatment, ensuring the correct temperature and dosage are maintained for optimal results.
Q: Where can ALQUAT-SOL be utilized?
A: ALQUAT-SOL is suitable for use in textile mills or processing units undertaking polyester weight reduction treatments. Its compatibility with most textile chemicals means it integrates smoothly into existing production environments.
Q: What are the main benefits of using ALQUAT-SOL?
A: The primary benefits include efficient polyester weight reduction, improved fabric texture and feel, minimal loss of strength, excellent product stability, and a non-toxic, environmentally friendly formulation.
Q: Is ALQUAT-SOL compatible with other textile chemicals?
A: Yes, ALQUAT-SOL is designed to be compatible with the majority of chemicals used in textile processing, enabling its use alongside other finishing agents without quality compromises.
Q: What is the shelf life of ALQUAT-SOL, and how is it packed?
A: ALQUAT-SOL has a shelf life of 12 months when stored as recommended. It is available in 50 kg and 125 kg HDPE drums for safe transportation and convenient handling.
