REDUCON-ACD (CONC) | Reduction Clearing Agent in Acidic Medium

Reducon-ACD (Conc) is a reduction clearing agent available in powder form. Reducon-ACD (Conc) removes unfixed disperse dyes in acidic medium from polyester and its blends with polyacrylonitrile. It is applied in cooling dyebath of acidic medium. It is water soluble thus make easy dosing process.

It is highly effective in a cooling acid dye bath, the pH of the bath should be 3.5-4.5

After dyeing, treat the dyed substrate at 70-80 deg.C for 10-20 min. followed by rinsing.

SUGGESTED RECIPE - Light to Medium shade

Addition of dispersing agents (Saragen-SO, Saragen-DAM) improves removal of dye in case of polyester/spandex.

Dosages of diluted product to be calculated on the basis of solid content.

Dosages to be taken depending on the depth of shade.

Note : For Dark shade

• Drain the dye bath and then add 1-2% owf Reducon-ACD (Conc) + 1% Saragen-SO at pH 3.5-4.5 at 75-80 deg.C for 20-30 min
• Keep the packaging bag of Reducon-ACD(Conc) tightly closed after every use. Atmospheric moisture and air may reduce the product strength.
