BIOLEVEL LC is a high-performance, dual-action Leveling and Sequestering Agent specifically designed for the dyeing and pretreatment of cotton and cellulosic blends. It combines superior dye-dispersing properties with effective mineral sequestration, ensuring a uniform and streak-free finish. By controlling the exhaustion rate of dyestuffs and neutralizing water hardness simultaneously, it provides a stable environment for achieving high-quality, repeatable shades.
Key Benefits:
Excellent Leveling: Promotes uniform dye migration and prevents uneven color distribution or "patchiness" on the fabric surface.
Dual Functionality: Acts as both a leveling agent and a sequestering agent, simplifying the chemical recipe and reducing overall costs.
Consistent Shade Reproducibility: Minimizes the impact of varying water quality on color depth and tone, ensuring batch-to-batch consistency.
Fiber Protection: Prevents the formation of metal-dye complexes that can lead to dullness or reduced light and wash fastness of the finished garment.
Application Guidelines:
Usage: Recommended for use in the dyeing of cotton, viscose, and their blends with reactive, direct, or vat dyes.
Dosing: Apply at 0.3 to 0.5 g/l, depending on the depth of the shade, the sensitivity of the dyestuff, and the water hardness levels.
Compatibility: Highly compatible with anionic and non-ionic textile auxiliaries; can be added directly to the dye bath before the addition of salt or alkali.
