Application Guidelines
Applications & Benefits
| Industry | Textile Processing Industry |
|---|---|
| Application | Used as a textile finishing auxiliary for imparting stiffness, strength, and durability to yarn and fabric. Suitable for sizing, finishing, anti-hairiness treatment, and hook-and-loop fastener applications. |
| Key Problems Solved | Reduces yarn/fabric hairiness Improves warp thread separation Enhances fabric stiffness without harsh feel Strengthens yarn internally, unlike surface-only coatings Replaces or reduces dependency on PVA, starch, and acrylic binders Lowers effluent load due to low BOD/COD |
| Benefits | Excellent fibre bonding Improves yarn strength through deep penetration Durable finish up to 5–10 washes Good desizability Soft stiffness without excessive harshness Suitable for resellers when diluted properly Eco-friendlier compared to conventional alternatives |
