Bullet FINYLON NHI Liquid
 
Levelling agent to cover barriness on polyamide dyeing
 
Barrie has often posed problems in the dyeing of polyamide filament material. Barrie is caused by both the physical and chemical factors, such as variation in stretch, twist, luster, or variation in the end amino group content. (Disperse dyes can adequately cover barrie but have poor wet fastness properties than acid can 1:2 metal complex dyes.)

FINYLON NHI Liquid in conjunction with FINYLON IPA 66 Liquid covers barriness effectively in the dyeing of polyamide with Nylosans and Lanasyns.
 
PROPERTIES:
     
Appearance
:
 yellow, slightly turbid liquid
Ionic character
:

weakly cationic

Specific gravity
:
 1.0 at 200C
Solubility : good
Foaming : negligible
     
Stability to    
-acids : good
- alkalis : good
- hard water : good
     
Compatibility with    
- anionics : good
-cationics : good
-non- ionics :  
 
APPLICATION
     
1. Dyeing with Nylosan colours – FINYLON NHI Process
     
  Set the dye bath at 500C with
   
    2 – 2% FINYLON IPA 66 Liquid
    2 – 6% AceticAcid 40%
    pH 5.0
     
  enter the material, work for 10 minutes raise the temperature to boil in 20 minutes and treat
at boil for 20 minutes. Cool the bath to 600C adjust the pH to 6 with liquor ammonia and
   
    4 – 1% FINYLON NHI Liquid +
   
  Work the material for 10 minutes for equalizing the pH and add the dissolved dyestuff. Raise the temperature to the boil in 20 minutes and dye at boil for 60 – 90 minutes. Then cool to 800C & rinse.
   
  This method is most useful in dyeing with Nylosan N and F dyestuffs. For Nylosan E dyes pH should be kept 5 for dyeing.
   
  *higher amounts for lighter shade & vice versa
+ higher amounts for more Barrie material.
   
2. Dyeing with Lanaysyn dyes at higher temperatures
   
  In this case the pretreatment with FINYLON IPA 66 is carried out as mentioned above. After cooling the bath at 600C and adjusting the pH to 6 with liquor ammonia.
   
    2 – 4% FINYLON NHI Liquid
   
  is added & the liquor circulated for 10 minutes before addition of the dissolved dyestuff. Then the temperature is raised to 115 - 120ºC in 45 minutes and dyed for 60 minutes. The bath is then cooled to 800C followed by rinsing.
   
  This method is also suitable for dyeing with Nylosan N dyestuff which also have higher wet fastness.
