- LIOSIL® FC 228 E is combined with conventional fabric softeners and improves the properties of the fabric softeners.
- LIOSIL® FC 228 E is easy to mix with fabric softeners. LIOSIL® FC 228 E improves the softening efficacy of fabric softeners and the fabrics get a significant softer and pleasant touch.
- With LIOSIL® FC 228 E the hydrophilicity is increased. Additionally LIOSIL® FC 228 E reduces the friction forces of the iron and therefore the ironing properties are improved significantly.
Processing:
Preferably LIOSIL® FC 228 E is mixed into the fabric softener at the end of the formulation process by gently stirring. Example for a fabric softener with LIOSIL® FC 228 E:
- 20.0 parts esterquat, e.g. Stepantex VK 90 (50°C) are poured slowly into
- 77.6 parts demineralized water (50°C) while stirring until the mixture is homogenous.
- 0.4 parts CaCl² solution (25%) are added
- 2 parts of LIOSIL® FC 228 E are mixed while stirring.
Dosage recommendation: Ca. 1 - 3 % LIOSIL® FC 228 E in the fabric softener formulation The dosage of LIOSIL® FC 228 E in the fabric softener depends on the expected effects. The level of organic softener can be reduced in favor of LIOSIL® FC 228 E.
