The global textile industry is constantly seeking innovative solutions to improve fabric quality, enhance performance, and meet stringent consumer demands for comfort and aesthetics. Textile finishing plays a crucial role in achieving these goals, and softening agents are indispensable components of this process. A high-quality softener can transform the hand feel of a fabric, making it desirable and comfortable.

NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., a dedicated provider of chemical solutions, is proud to introduce its advanced product, Kr-521 Softening Flake. This specially developed auxiliary agent is designed to deliver superior softening performance, addressing common challenges faced in modern textile processing.

Kr-521 Softening Flake is a light yellow flake, consisting of expertly blended multiple polymeric compounds. This formulation is engineered to provide exceptional results across a variety of fabric types, particularly tailored for use with same bath dyed fabrics and those requiring high salt resistance. Its solid flake form ensures ease of handling, storage, and precise dosing when preparing the working solution.

One of the most significant advantages of Kr-521 Softening Flake is its ability to impart a truly premium hand feel to textiles. Fabrics treated with Kr-521 exhibit a superior soft, smooth, and full feeling. This luxurious touch enhances the perceived quality and value of the finished product, contributing directly to customer satisfaction.

Beyond just feel, Kr-521 boasts remarkable functional properties crucial for complex textile finishing processes. It demonstrates excellent salt tolerance and alkali resistance. This resilience is particularly important when processing fabrics in baths containing high concentrations of salts or under alkaline conditions, preventing the softening agent from degrading or becoming ineffective. Furthermore, Kr-521 is formulated with a low yellowing property, ensuring that white or lightly colored fabrics maintain their brightness and do not develop an undesirable yellow tint during treatment or storage. It also has minimal impact on fabric whiteness and color shade, preserving the intended aesthetics of the textile.

The application of Kr-521 Softening Flake is versatile, accommodating different textile processing setups. It can be applied using the conventional padding method or the dipping method. For the padding method, a dosage of 20~30g/L of a 10% solution is recommended, typically applied at temperatures between 30ºC and 40ºC using standard one dip, one pad or two dips, two pads technology. The dipping method uses a dosage of 3~8% (on weight of fabric, o.w.f.) of a 10% solution, with treatment temperatures ranging from 40ºC to 50ºC, a customizable liquor ratio from 1:10 to 1:15, and a working time of 30 minutes.

Preparation of the working solution from the Kr-521 flakes is straightforward. Two methods are effective: incorporating flakes into room temperature water at a 5~10% proportion, stirring, and gradually heating to 70~75ºC until fully dissolved; or introducing flakes directly into water heated to 60~70ºC at the same proportion and stirring diligently until dissolution is complete. It is important to ensure thorough dissolution for optimal performance.

A key benefit for textile manufacturers is the flawless intermiscibility of Kr-521 Softening Flake with other textile auxiliaries commonly used in finishing baths. However, as with any chemical processing, it is always recommended to conduct preliminary tests when combining Kr-521 with other agents to adjust processes and ensure compatibility and desired results for specific fabric types and finishing objectives.

Proper storage is essential to maintain the quality and efficacy of Kr-521 Softening Flake. The product should be stored in a cool, shaded area to maintain its integrity and performance for a storage period of up to 12 months. It is supplied in durable 25kg plastic woven bags, designed for easy handling and storage in industrial environments.
