Hydrogen peroxide is the bleaching agent of choice for the treatment of natural and synthetic fibers such as cotton, wool, rayon, silk, linen and viscose. This powerful oxidant not only provides a high level of brightness, it also preserves the mechanical properties of fibers, fabrics, and textiles.
Peracetic acid is used for disinfection and as a bleaching agent in industrial laundries.
What is more, both hydrogen peroxide and peracetic acid break down into only biodegradable substances - thus leaving minimal trace on the environment.
DEGAPAS®, our phosphorus-free polyacrylic acid, provides excellent dispersing action, in particular with fatty soils - increasing the dirt carrying capacity of the liquor. It also binds lime, stays stable in the presence of oxidizing agents, mixes well with liquid surfactants and electrolytes, and is soluable in water.
