- TEXIPOL® 63-237 is supplied as an easy to use, low viscosity liquid that gives almost instantaneous thickening when formulated in pigment printing pastes. As the polymer is already in solution it does not require any neutralization or addition of other additives to promote thickening.
- TEXIPOL® 63-237 provides outstanding print definition as well as superb fastness properties, color yield, brightness and excellent softness of handle. It may be used on a variety of textile substrates including: 100% cotton, polyester, poly-cotton and other synthetic fibers and blends.
- TEXIPOL® 63-237 is normally used at 3.0-4.0% of the print paste and the standard addition level is 3.5%. It is compatible with all the typical print paste ingredients including preservatives, humectants, antifoams, softeners, binders and cross-linking additives. Texipol 63-237 is suitable for use on hand screens, rotary and flat-bed printing machines.
