3D pleats & easy care

Standard 100 by OEKO-TEX® (Class II-IV)
ZDHC MRSL compliant
Actual application for ZDHC Chemical Gateway: Level 0

• Crosslinking agent for the low-formaldehyde resin finishing of wovens and knitwear made from cellulosic fibres and their blends with synthetic fibres
• Applicable to made-up garments
• Does not require an additional catalyst system
• Results in very low formaldehyde values if cured adequately
• Good easy-care properties and high dimensional stability of the finished goods
• Produces wash-and-wear effects that are stable at the boil
• No or only slight changes of shade
• Produces chlorine-resistant finishes
• Causes lower losses of tear fastness than conventional reactant crosslinking agents
• Highly compatible with most auxiliaries used in resin finishing, such as additives, softening and filling agents, water, oil and soil repellent agents and brighteners
• Perfectly suitable for creating 3D effects
• Strong blocking agent for indigo when oxidants are applied subsequently to 3D tagging
• In the case of oxidant application after 3D tagging: Preferably for dark shades (avoid on lighter shades due to too strong contrasts at the 3D pleat area bleaching
• For 3D effect creation on lighter shades: RUCON® FNF is to be preferred

Chemical basis: Modified N-methylol dihydroxyethylene urea with incorporated catalyst system
Ionic character: Uncharged

Standard 100 by OEKO-TEX® (Suitable for class I-IV)
ZDHC MRSL compliant
Actual application for ZDHC Chemical Gateway: Level 0

• Crosslinking agent for a formaldehyde-free resin finishing of textiles made of cellulosic fibres or their blends with synthetic fibres.
• High liquor stability even with strong catalysts
• Results in formaldehyde-free finishing effects if catalysed and cured correctly
• Complies with the requirements of zero formaldehyde according to OEKO-TEX Standard 100, class I
• Perfectly suitable for creating 3D effects
• Blocking agent for indigo when oxidants are applied subsequently after 3D tagging (patrticularly suitable for light to medium washes
• Avoidance of undesired strong contrasts in the 3D pleat area when bleaching; after 3D tagging
• RUCON® X-FAC would give too strong contrasts in the 3 D pleat area

Chemical basis: Modified dihydroxyethylene urea, formaldehyde-free
Ionic character: Uncharged
