Application
  •  For pigment printing, it is very essential that the fabric should be acidic around pH 5.5 to 6. 
  • To get good sharp print, the fabric should be free of salts before printing. 

Paste preparation

Take recommended quantity of Cellbind-FF. Add 20% water and pigment emulsion as per shade depth. Then add Urea with stirring. Then add slowly half the quantity of synthetic thickener so that paste becomes thick. Add liquor ammonia and fixer. Then add balance water with stirring. Finally add balance synthetic thickener till required viscosity is achieved. Stir it further 10 mins. to built viscosity and smoothness.
