Huntsman Textile Effects has launched the breakthrough ERIOPON E3-SAVE dyeing auxiliary for the new single-bath scour-dye-reduction clear concept providing the shortest possible processing cycle for polyester thus saving time, water, energy, and cost. The company provides high quality dyes, chemicals, and digital inks to the textile and related industries.
The demand for polyester and man-made fibres is booming as sports and athleisure apparel markets expand rapidly around the world. At the same time, brands, consumers and mills are increasingly focused on sustainability and performance resulting in raising demand for optimisation of the costly, time consuming, and resource intensive polyester dyeing process.
Developed by Huntsman Textile Effects specifically to meet these challenges, the advanced all-in-one ERIOPON E3-SAVE dyeing auxiliary is engineered to help the mills achieve considerable savings in the water, energy and time for the intensive process of dyeing polyester and its blends by combining pre-scouring, dyeing and reduction clearing in a single bath, according to a media statement by the company.
With cutting-edge polymer technology at its heart, ERIOPON E3-SAVE auxiliary can be used to successfully dye in jet applications without the need for anti-foaming products. The superior levelling of ERIOPON E3-SAVE auxiliary also increases reproducibility, allowing mills to dispense with additional levelling agents.
