FABSTRIP-NS

FABSTRIP-NS | Stripping agent for reactive dyes

Product Information

Fabstrip-NS is a stripping agent for cotton fabric dyed with reactive dye. It gives excellent stripping of dyes as compared against conventional method of stripping using caustic and hydrose. Fabstrip-NS will prevent fabric damage, which is generally observed when stripping is done by conventional method using caustic and hydrose.
Fabstrip-NS is suitable for Elastane (lycra) and delicate fabrics viz., Viscose, Rayon, Modal, Tencel and other Regenerated cellulosic fabrics. Unlike conventional caustic-hydrose, the product is active in acidic medium. The stripped fabric can be dyed with any colour. Minimum strength loss and stretch loss. Less consumption of Water, Energy and Time.

Application

Stepwise procedure to achieve the best stripping

  • Treat with 0.3-0.5% Celldet-R at 95 deg.C for 10 mins and Drain
  • Cold wash for 10 mins, Drain
  • Adjust batch pH to 4.0-4.5, add 3.0-5.0% Fabstrip-NS, raise the temperature to 95 deg.C for 20-30 mins, Drain
  • Hot wash at 80 deg.C for 10 mins, Drain
  • Cold wash and drain

Note: If the dyed fabric is treated with a dye-fixing agent, then the process sequence will be as follows :

  • Treat with 0.3-0.5% Celldet-R at 95 deg.C for 10 mins and Drain
  • Adjust bath pH 4.0-5.0, Add 1-2% Saragen-SO at 85 deg.C for 15 mins, Drain
  • Cold wash for 10 mins and Drain
  • Adjust bath pH 4.0-4.5, Add 3-5% Fabstrip-NS and raise the temperature to 95 deg.C for 20-30 mins and Drain
  • Hot wash at 80 deg.C for 10 mins and drain
  • Cold wash for 10 mins and drain
Precautions

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 : 8 months from the date of manufacturing, if stored under controlled conditions.
