Product Overview
Optical Brightener CXT represents a premium class of fluorescent whitening agents engineered for exceptional performance in demanding industrial environments. Chemically known as disodium 5-[(4-anilino-6-morpholin-4-yl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)amino]-2-[(E)-2-[4-[(4-anilino-6-morpholin-4-yl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)amino]-2-sulfonatophenyl]ethenyl]benzenesulfonate, this compound leverages advanced morpholine functional groups to deliver stability profiles that surpass conventional alternatives. Our manufacturing process ensures consistent molecular integrity, resulting in a product that provides reliable whiteness enhancement across various substrates.
As a leading supplier in the speciality chemicals sector, we understand the critical need for additives that maintain performance under stress. Optical Brightener CXT is specifically formulated to withstand oxidative conditions, making it an ideal choice for modern cleaning formulations and textile processing where chlorine and perborate exposure are common. The anionic nature of this brightener ensures compatibility with a wide range of surfactant systems while delivering a desirable bluish fluorescence that neutralizes yellow tones effectively.

Industrial Applications
The versatility of Optical Brightener CXT makes it a cornerstone ingredient in multiple downstream industries. In the detergent sector, it excels in washing powders where high dosage accumulation is required to maintain fabric whiteness over repeated wash cycles. Its superior resistance to chlorine bleach distinguishes it from older generations like VBL or 31#, ensuring that whitening effects persist even in harsh cleaning conditions. For textile manufacturers, this brightener is highly effective on cellulose and polyamide fibers, operating optimally within a pH range of 7 to 10.
Beyond basic whitening, the product offers significant sunfastness ratings up to level 4, providing longevity to treated materials exposed to light. The functional morpholine groups enhance acid resistance and perborate stability, allowing formulators to create robust products without compromising on aesthetic quality. Whether used in household laundry detergents or industrial textile finishing baths, Optical Brightener CXT delivers consistent, measurable improvements in brightness and visual appeal.
Storage and Handling
To maintain optimal quality, Optical Brightener CXT should be stored in a cool, dry environment with containers kept tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption. The material is stable under recommended storage conditions and does not emit hazardous odors. As with all chemical additives, appropriate personal protective equipment should be used during handling to ensure safety compliance. We provide comprehensive documentation including Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment to verify batch consistency and purity standards.
