Key Features and Benefits

• Linear Molecular

Architecture

• Effective at 3-5 g/lt in the bath, as received. It may provide a high level of natural softness to synthetics and their blends with natural fibers

•High Molecular Weight

• Delivers properties similar to those of reactive elastomeric finishes, such as durability and resistance

• Hindered Amine

Functionality

• Low yellowing

•Good stability under most finishing conditions, including jet/overflow

• Combines Hydrophilic

and Silicone Moieties

May be co-applied with crease (durable press) resist resins

• Self-dispersible, no need for emulsifiers, hence potentially lower cost for formulators and mills

• May be blended directly into the textile finishing bath with minimal agitation

• Low Viscosity

• Easy to handle

Processing Recommendations

IOTA 238 textile enhancer may be considered for use in textile finishing of all synthetics, synthetic/cotton blends, polyester fleece and wool. It typically provides good lubricity and hand-feel during the manufacture of polyester fleece. IOTA 238 textile enhancer may also be used on cotton fabrics.

IOTA 238 textile enhancer should be used at a dosage level of 3-5 g/liter in the bath. Higher dosage levels are not recommended and in certain cases, may be detrimental to the performance of this product. Even though IOTA 238 textile enhancer is one of the most stable silicone finishes in the market, it is best to use soft water for its dilutions. If this not available, it is prudent to test the complete bath for stability before applying it in production. 

Packaging

IOTA 238 textile enhancer is available in pails of 19kgs net weight and in drums of 212kgs net weight.
