Properties

EGALIN 811 is a leveling agent for dyeing cellulosic fibers and bast fibers with direct or vat dyestuffs.
The characteristics of this product can be summarized as follows:
− Good leveling power.
− It does not give any foam formation even in appliances with strong concussions.
− Good retarding power but almost no dye retention in the bath.
− It increases the speed of migration and diffusion of the dyes thus optimizing the dyeing processes.
− No color interference.
Generally, the EGALIN 811 is compatible with other auxiliaries, however it is advisable to check the compatibility from time to
time. EGALIN 811 is not compatible with BLOCCANTE 496 in the dyeing of wool-cellulose blends (natural or artificial).
