FAQ

 

Q: What causes silicone oil spotting on fabric during high-speed padding?

A: Spotting typically stems from low bath stability driven by high water hardness (> 100 ppm) or extreme pH shifts. Incorporate a sequestering agent and regulate bath pH between 5.0 and 6.0 to prevent premature emulsion breakdown.

Q: Is this finishing agent compatible with reactive dye fixing agents?

A: Yes, it exhibits broad compatibility with cationic fixing systems. Perform preliminary laboratory drop tests prior to bulk industrial runs to verify system stability.

Q: How does the ionic charge influence downstream dyeing processes?

A: The weakly cationic and non-ionic hybrid matrix minimizes shade alteration on pre-dyed cotton substrates compared to traditional strong cationic softeners.

Q: What is the proper storage procedure and shelf life?

A: Store in sealed containers between 5 deg C and 35 deg C for up to 12 months. Protect from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures to avoid irreversible emulsion splitting.

Q: Does the formulation contain alkylphenol ethoxylates or free formaldehyde?

A: No. The chemical matrix is synthesized without alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEO), free formaldehyde donors, or restricted heavy metals, adhering to standard industrial environmental safety limits.

Q: What is the minimum order quantity for custom active content requirements?

A: The minimum order quantity for specialized active content adjustments or custom viscosity grades is 3,000 kg per production batch.
