SOFTPON AD-T is suitable for all those treatments where it is necessary to avoid problems generated by the presence of calcium and magnesium ions or insoluble impurities. It can therefore be used in scouring or bleaching processes, in dyeing and soaping of reactive and vat dyes.
The sequestering capacities towards calcium and magnesium ions are decidedly superior to those of classic EDTA.
Its excellent sequestering power, which is especially evident at alkaline pH, is maintained even at high temperatures.
In desizing, scouring and bleaching it facilitates the elimination of sizes, waxes and pectins.
It has no demetallizing action towards dyes and can therefore be used in dyeing, in particular with reactive dyes.
Its excellent dispersing power makes it particularly effective in the soaping processes after dyeing or printing with reactive and vat dyes.
SOFTPON AD-T is a non-surfactant and non-foaming product; it has not BIAS and MBAS values.
