* How to pass from WICKING AND DRYING TIME TESTS?

1) For PES/Co fabrics ;

a) After finish the dyeing and washing of PES and Co material, adjust last bath (Softeneer bath) to pH 5,5 with Setacid NV-C, than add 2% SETASOFT AQUA-ESF to the same and re - check for pH to be 5,5. Application should be carried out at 70 C, 15 minutes. pH have to be adjusted with Setacid NV-C instead of asetic acid.

b) After above application, the padding bath in the drying stenter should be adjust to pH 5,5 with SETACID NV-C, than 1add 100 g/L SETASTAT TM-P and 100 g/L SETASOFT AQUA-ESF
(Pick up :25 %)
Proces is from wet on wet so chemical consumption is more than usual.

c) Drying in Stenter


2) For 100 % Cotton;

a) After finish the dyeing and washing of Co material, adjust last bath (Softeneer bath) to pH 5,5 with Setacid NV-C, than add 2% SETASOFT AQUA-ESF to the same and re - check for pH to be 5,5. Application should be carried out at 70 C, 15 minutes. pH have to be adjusted with Setacid NV-C instead of asetic acid.

b) After above application, the padding bath in the drying stenter should be adjust to pH 5,5 with SETACID NV-C, than add 100 g/L SETASOFT AQUA-ESF (Pick up :25 %)
Proces is from wet on wet so chemical consumption is more than usual.

* Which Setazol dyestuff combinations should be sellected for Green, Violet, Red and Turquoise High Light fastness colors?

Combination for High Light Fastness Reactive turquoise and green colors:

Setazol Yellow 4GL conz
Setazol Green GB
Setazol Blue LF

Combination for High Light Fastness Reactive red colors:

Setazol Yellow 3RS
Setazol Red 3BS
Setazol Red GF

Combination for High Light Fastness Reactive violet colors:

Setazol Blue RN
Setazol Red GF
Setazol Blue BRF-X

* Which Setazol Black(s) should be sellected for minimum color difference for a mixture of 50% Co/50% Cv material?

The exhaustion of Cv (Viscose) is higher than Co (Cotton) therefore to minimize color difference, must be sellected concentrated and different exhaustable dyes like combination of Setazol Black SBG + Setazol Black SBR.

* What are the important points while doing reduction clearing with Reduktan ACR?

Reduktan ACR is an innovative "Powder Acidic Reduction Clearing agent for washing Polyester fiber, yarn and fabrics. Thanks to its properties, Reduktan ACR can be added into dyeing bath at the end of dyeing process without drain the bath. Safe time, energy etc., gives excellent results for washing fastness even for very dark and critical shades.

a) Reduktan ACR should not be added into the dyeing bath when dyeing with small mollecule "carrier type" dyes. It must be added in a new fresh washing bath.

b) The pH of the reduction clearing bath must be pH 4.0. Control the pH before add Reduktan ACR and if it is neccessery, adjusted with Acetic Acid;

0.4 – 3 g/l Reduktan ACR
2 - 5 g/l Acetic acid (pH 4.0)
80 - 85°C, 20 minutes.
