Application


  • POWSIL-59170 silicone softener for textiles can be applied in pretreatment process to prevent fabric from creases  and texture damage caused by fabric scratching during fast movement in tank. It is  compatible with most scouring agents and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2 ).


  • POWSIL-59170 can be used as received or pre-diluted with water before applying and the desirable usages are dependent on the required softness of the fabric or yarn.


  • Pretreatment Conditions

    POWSIL-59170:

    0.5-2.0% (o.w.f)

    NaOH(30%):

    3-5% (o.w.f)

    H2O2(27.5%):

    6-8% (o.w.f)

    Liquor ratio:

    1/10 - 1/20

    Temp.:

    98°C

    Time:

    20-40 mins

    POWSIL-59170 can also be applied in the finishing stages as a stable softener to prevent oil-spots on fabric with both in bath-padding and exhaustion.


  • For Finishing Process


    Pad-dry-cure process

    Dosage:

    5-10 g/L (light fabric) – 10-20 g/L ( heavy fabric)

    Temp.:

    20 - 40°C

    Pick-up:  

    65 - 85%

    Drying:  

    100 – 130°C for 2min

    Curing:

    100 - 200 ºC for 1 - 3 min


  • Exhaustion process:

    Dosage:

    0.5 – 2.0% (o.w.f)

    Liquor ratio:

    1/10 - 1/20

    Temp.:

    30 - 50 °C

    Time:

    20 - 30 min

    Drying:  

    100 - 130 ºC


  • Garment washing process:


    Dosage:

    0.5 -2.0% (o.w.f)

    Condition:

    Same as exhaustion process

  • Stripping:


  • Formulation for stripping off cotton fabric:

        -5-10 g/L NaOH

        -2-3 g/L SDBS (Sodium Dodecyl Benzene Sulfonate, 30%)

        -Water


  • Formulation for stripping off polyester fabric

        -5-10 g/L Na2CO3

        -2-3 g/L Alcohol ethoxylated with 10 EO


  • Procedures for stripping off:

    - Charge fabric and water into machine

     - Add NaOH for Cotton fabric or Na2CO3 for polyester fabric

     - Heat to 98-100 °C and continue to boil for 30-60 min

     - Cool down and rinse fabric with water

Packing and Storage


  • POWSIL-59170 for silicone fabric tends to be sediment on bottom during storage period. If the product is separated, stir the contents to homogeneous. If the product is frozen, thaw it at warm condition and stir after thawed.

  • To ensure that the product quality is maintained, the container should be tightly sealed when not in use. It should be stored at normal room temperature, preventing prolonged exposure to extreme heat and cold conditions, which may cause product separation.

  • POWSIL-59170 is packaged in net weight 120Kg plastic drum.
