JETSOFT^® CONCENTRATE

Formulation:

1. Without emulsifier

188 pbw JETSOFT^® CONCENTRATE

104 pbw diethyleneglycolmonobutylether

698,5 pbw demineralized water

9 pbw acetic acid 100 %

0,5 pbw biocide

2. Low emulsifier content

100 pbw JETSOFT^® CONCENTRATE

5 pbw acetic acid 100 %

9–10 pbw i-tridecyl-O-(EO)3 -H

240 – 650 pbw demineralized water

0,05 % biocide

Homogeneously mix JETSOFT^® CONCENTRATE, the acetic acid and the emulsifier. While continuing to stir, add demineralized water until the required concentration is reached. The concentration will determine whether clear to slightly turbid solutions are obtained. To obtain a clear product, slightly higher amounts of emulsifier will be required in formulations with a low content of JETSOFT^® CONCENTRATE .

In case of an incomplete and inhomogeneous mixing of JETSOFT® CONCENTRATE, acetic acid and emulsifier the formation of some small flakes during the following dilution with water is possible. They can easily be removed by filtration.

Processing:

The application of JETSOFT^® CONCENTRATE takes place at room temperature after the soaping and rinsing of the dyed fabric. It can be combined with the cationic aftertreatment of dyes for improving color fastness.

Acidic conditions should be maintained throughout the treatment by addition of acetic acid to the pad bath. To avoid a pH shift due to alkali washed out of the fabric, a suitable excess of acetic acid should be used.

Because of its cationic nature, JETSOFT^® CONCENTRATE is not very compatible with anionic auxiliaries such as optical brighteners. Before using JETSOFT^® CONCENTRATE with other auxiliaries in one bath, always test the compatibility. For jet application, we recommend using approx. 0.6 % JETSOFT^® CONCENTRATE based on the weight of the fabric.
