RUCOLAN VGA
White. Whiter. Whitest.Conserving agent against storage yellowing. Now with secure pH adjustment!
Yellowing
Textile yellowing is a well-known problem. The causes for it are as versatile as the appearance and the behaviour of the different types of yellowing.
Conserving agent against storage yellowing
We have developed a special conserving agent against storage yellowing:
- RUCOLAN VGA
RUCOLAN VGA prevents phenolic yellowing during storage. It can be applied to all articles that are susceptible to yellowing.
In addition, RUCOLAN VGA reacts like a colourless acid dyestuff and blocks the cationic charges of fibres and auxiliaries so that the “catcher effect“ is prevented and yellow bodies cannot deposit on the fabric.
RUCOLAN VGA is an alternative co-reactor for the nitrogen oxide in the environmental air; coloured reaction products as a result of the reaction of RUCOLAN VGA with NOx do not arise.
Properties of RUCOLAN VGA
- Prevents phenolic storage yellowing
- Reliable adjustment of the necessary pH value
- Hydrophilic properties
- High wetting power
- Does not contribute to thermal yellowing
- No impairment of the light fastness
