- Application pH Range
- 4.5 - 5.5
- Use Level
- 20 - 50 g/L (of 10% silicone actives emulsion)
- Applications
- Optimal dose levels of Texhydro® Oil Jet textile enhancer depend on the type of fabric and level of softness required, but 20~50 g/L of 10% silicone actives emulsion is typically recommended as a starting point.
- In the textile finishing process, an acidic textile finishing bath is most desirable because the softness imparted by Texhydro® Oil Jet textile enhancer is generally maximized at a bath pH of 4.5~5.5.
- Emulsion can be prepared in concentrations between 10% and 70%.
