Reactive printing is a cornerstone of the textile industry, enabling the creation of vibrant, durable colors on natural fibers. A critical component in achieving successful reactive printing is the thickener, which controls the viscosity of the printing paste, ensuring sharp outlines, preventing bleeding, and facilitating smooth application through screens or rollers. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., a trusted name in chemical supply, offers an advanced anionic thickener specifically designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern reactive textile printing.

This advanced thickener, based on an acrylic multicomponent copolymer composition, presents as a light yellow to milky white viscous emulsion. Its anionic nature makes it highly compatible with the typically anionic reactive dyes, promoting optimal dye fixation and color yield. The technical properties demonstrate its suitability for high-quality applications, including a pH value between 6.0 and 7.0 in a 1% solution, which is well-suited for reactive dyeing conditions.

One of the primary advantages of utilizing this advanced anionic thickener is its impact on print quality. It contributes to a high color value and allows for the reproduction of brilliant, bright colors. Printers can achieve clear shape definition and intricate patterns without concerns about smudging or fuzzy edges. Furthermore, it offers excellent permeability and leveling properties, ensuring uniform color distribution across the printed area and preventing undesirable patchiness or unevenness.

Efficiency in the printing process is significantly enhanced by this thickener. It facilitates the rapid preparation of the printing paste, saving valuable time and labor in the print shop. Once prepared, the paste exhibits excellent stability, maintaining its desired viscosity over time, which is crucial for consistent performance during long production runs. This stability also helps in minimizing waste associated with paste degradation.

Beyond visual aesthetics and preparation ease, the physical properties imparted by the thickener are also vital. It ensures a high rate of destarching (wash-off) after printing and steaming, allowing for easy removal of the thickener from the fabric. This leads to a soft and desirable handle for the finished textile, a critical factor for consumer comfort and satisfaction. Moreover, the thickener demonstrates excellent net penetration and leveling, along with superior flow performance, which are indispensable for efficient operation of various printing equipment, including rotary and flatbed printing machines.

Environmental considerations are increasingly important in textile production. This advanced anionic thickener aligns with global sustainability trends by being Formaldehyde-free and APEO/NPEO-free. These features not only help printers meet stringent ecological standards but also contribute to a safer working environment and products that are safer for end-users.

Using the thickener is straightforward. It easily dissolves in water, forming a viscous emulsion that serves as the base for the printing paste. The recommended usage involves adding soft water to the thickener, stirring to form a thick emulsion, and then incorporating other necessary components such as urea, resist salt, sodium bicarbonate, and the reactive dye. Thorough stirring ensures a well-combined, homogeneous paste ready for printing. The optimal dosage can be adjusted based on the specific printing process, desired paste viscosity, and fabric type.

Storage and handling are simple; the product should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area to maintain its efficacy. Under recommended conditions, it boasts a shelf life of 12 months. It is typically supplied in durable plastic drums of various standard sizes to accommodate different production scales.
