Glogard-NC is a water-soluble, non-durable flame retardant for cellulosic, synthetics and their blended substrates. It is a non-hazardous, readily biodegradable & has no adverse effect on the environment.
Versatile Flame Retardant SolutionGLOGARD-NC delivers reliable flame retardancy to a wide spectrum of textiles, including cellulosic and synthetic substrates. Its non-ionic to mildly anionic composition ensures broad compatibility with textile finishing processes and allows easy integration with auxiliary agents and softeners for enhanced performance. The clear, water-soluble liquid is simple to use, making it ideal for textile manufacturers seeking efficient, temporary flame protection.
Safe and Easy ApplicationApplying GLOGARD-NC involves straightforward pad-dry-cure or dip methods, enabling seamless adoption into existing finishing lines. With a low-toxicity profile and partial biodegradability, the product prioritizes safety for both operators and the environment. Protective gloves and eyewear are recommended during handling. GLOGARD-NC comes in durable 50 kg HDPE carboys or drums for optimal storage and ease of handling.
FAQ's of GLOGARD-NC (Non-durable flame retardant for cellulosic and synthetics):
Q: How is GLOGARD-NC applied to textiles?
A: GLOGARD-NC can be applied using the pad-dry-cure or dip application method, both of which are standard procedures in textile finishing. Simply dilute the product in water, apply it to the fabric, then dry and cure as required to achieve temporary flame retardancy.
Q: What types of fabrics are suitable for GLOGARD-NC treatment?
A: GLOGARD-NC is designed for a range of cellulosic and synthetic textiles, such as cotton, viscose, rayon, polyester blends, and other synthetic fabrics, making it suitable for diverse textile processing units.
Q: When should GLOGARD-NC be used in the textile finishing process?
A: GLOGARD-NC is best applied during the final stages of the textile finishing process, after scouring and bleaching but prior to any water-repellent or softener finishes, to maximize flame retardancy and compatibility.
Q: Where should GLOGARD-NC be stored for optimal shelf life?
A: To maintain its effectiveness, GLOGARD-NC should be stored in tightly sealed containers, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Under these conditions, it has a shelf life of 12 months.
Q: What are the key benefits of using GLOGARD-NC?
A: GLOGARD-NC provides effective temporary flame resistance to a wide variety of textiles. It is easy to use, has low toxicity, partial biodegradability, and is compatible with most textile auxiliaries, offering an environmentally friendlier finishing solution.
Q: How does GLOGARD-NC contribute to environmental safety?
A: GLOGARD-NC contains phosphorus and nitrogen-based compounds that are partially biodegradable and designed for low toxicity, aligning with environmental safety requirements and minimizing ecological impact.
Q: Is GLOGARD-NC compatible with other textile finishing agents?
A: Yes, GLOGARD-NC is compatible with most finishing agents and softeners due to its non-ionic to mildly anionic nature, allowing flexibility in textile processing formulas.
