Careguard-823 Conc (New) is a new generation water and oil repellent fluorocarbon based on C6 Chemistry. It imparts balanced water and oil repellency on various substrates and specially on polypropylene fibres. It also works at temperature 120°C. It can be applied by pad foam and spray technique. The performance of Careguard-823 Conc (New) will be closer to that of C8 Chemistry Fluorocarbons. They can be applied on nonwoven substrates also.

* Concentration of Careguard-823 Conc (New) to be taken on the basis of durability requirement.
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 recommeded).
4. Water-oil repellent finish can be combined with resin finish using 30g/l Saralink-ULF + 6g/l MgCl2 + 20g/l Saralube-2975.
Sequence of addition:
-------------------------
- Prepare bath with all ingredients including Saralink-ULF, MgCl2 in water containing Acetic acid.
- Stir continuously and add Careguard-823 Conc (New) as the final ingredient.
Precautions:
- Avoid high speed and continuous stirring.
- Avoid silicone based softeners in the finishing recipe.
- Pre trial with Careguard-823 Conc (New) is recommended with coating chemicals.
