Soaking Method
Prepare 10-20% solution of Saraguard-5700 (Conc) depending on the durability required in a vessel. Introduce the fabric in the vessel containing Saraguard-5700 (Conc) solution and soak the fabric for 20-30 minutes at 30-40deg. C with intermittent stirring. Unload the fabric and hydro extract it to remove excess liquor, without rinsing. Dry the fabric at approximately 140°C
Spraying Method
Prepare 10-20% solution of Saraguard-5700 (Conc) depending on the durability required in a vessel. Spray the solution on the fabric using a spray gun then dry the fabric at approximately 140°C
* The product must be diluted with water and kept standing for 60 minutes before application
on any substrates. This helps in proper activation of the product and thus increases
the reactivity and durability of the product
* Concentration of the above product to be taken on the basis of durability
Requirement.
* For application in medical textiles the dosage of the above chemical has to be
Optimized depending on the GSM of the fabric and (%) Expression
Instructions For Dilution
Procedure to prepare 1% Saraguard-5700 (Conc)
- Take 70 parts of ISO Propyl Alcohol + 30 parts of distill water.
- Warm the above mixture to 55-50 deg.C
- To this add 1 part of Saraguard-5700 (Conc) and stir continuously at
300-400 rpm for 30-45 mins at 55-60 deg.C
- After the product is completely dissolved continue stirring at room
Temperature for 25 mins at 300-400 rpm.
- The final product will be colourless clear liquid with yellow tint
