Careguard-7080 is a new generation highly cost effective water and oil repellent fluorocarbon based on C6 Chemistry. It imparts balanced water and oil repellency on various substrates viz., polyester, cotton, nylon, wool fibres and their blends. Careguard-7080 gives very good and durable oil-water repellency on Acrylic substrates. It can be applied by pad foam and spray technique. The performance of Careguard-7080 will be closer to that of C8 Chemistry Fluorocarbons. They can be applied on nonwoven substrates also. Careguard-7080 is suitable for application on Personal Protective Equipment/ Clothing used in medical and industrial textiles.

* Concentration of Careguard-7080 to be taken on the basis of durability
requirement.
* Depending on the GSM of the fabric and (%) Expression of the fabric the dosage
of the above chemical has to be optimized.
Note:
1. It is recommended to prewash the substrate to be treated with
1 g/l Saragen-DAM at 80-85 deg.C for 20-30 min. to remove
traces of residual impurities to get excellent results.
2. After padding and drying if fabric is kept overnight before
curing, results will be further improved.
3. Compatible with Flame Retardent finish (Pre-trial is recommended).
4. Water and Oil repellent can be combined with Wrinkle free finish.
(Pre-trials are recommended)
Sequence of addition:
- Prepare bath with all ingredients including Saralink-ULF,
MgCl2 in water containing Acetic acid.
- Stir continuously and add Careguard-7080 as the final
ingredient.
Precautions:
