AUXILIARIES FOR DYEING

Once prepared, the fibers can move on to the next dye.

To obtain a correct and uniform exhaustion of the dye on the fiber and a right fixing is necessary to use specific products denominated AUXILIARIES FOR DYEING, such as donors of acidity/alkalinity that in the dyeing baths gradually release acidity or alkalinity, or anti-reducing agents that prevent possible tonings of color tone, caused by actions of external reducing agents.

A wide range of auxiliary intended to meet all textile processes of preparation, dyeing and finishing.
