Cationic retarder for level dyeing of acrylic
Saragal AN is a cationic retarder for level dyeing of acrylic fibres, tops and yarn by exhaust method. Addition of Saragal AN in dyebath reduces initial high strike rate thereby leading to level dyeing. Due to its chemical nature Saragal AN does not permanently block anionic sites on the fibre.

Application
0.5 - 3% Saragal AN is recommended as a levelling agent in acrylic dyeing. Concentration of Saragal AN is inversely proportional to the depth of shade.
For fibres with higher rate of dyeing, higher concentration of Saragal AN is recommended.
Storage : Store in cool, ventilated shed away from heat and direct sunlight. Storage temperature should not exceed 35 deg C. Close lids firmly to avoid contact with air and moisture.
Shelf Life : 9 months from the date of manufacturing, if stored under controlled conditions.
