PERFACOLOR WPA
PERFACOLOR WPA
PERFACOLOR WPA is a protein-based dyeing auxiliary designed to maintain the quality of wool textiles during aqueous processing.
Perfacolor WPA is available in 25kg, 120kg, 200kg plastic drums and 1000kg IBC’s.
Application
Normal application/treatment rate is 1.0-2.0% O.W.F. for dyeing, chroming or stripping. Under more severe conditions however, up to 4% O.W.F can be used.
Benefits
- Exhaustion: Will exhaust onto the wool fibre giving protection during aqueous processing when applied under acidic conditions.
- Versatility: Can be applied during dyeing, chroming and acid stripping conditions.
- Protection: Wool fibre is protected during aqueous processing when the Perfacolor WPA decomposes in place of the keratin structure of the wool, yielding water-soluble amino acids and peptides.
- Crease Prevention: Will minimize creasing of wool and wool blends during winch and jet dyeing.
- Stability: Resistant to acid, alkali, water hardness and electrolyte.
