  • ENCEE SOFT - C is a softener used to impart a pleasing, silky, non-greasy, full, resilient, handle to fiber, yarn and fabrics. ENCEE SOFT - C performs many other functions such as lubrication, improvement of stitching properties, antistatic effect etc., depending on the material being treated.
  • ENCEE SOFT - C produces a satisfactory softening effect when applied at optimum concentrations. Its high substantivity is particularly apparent for natural and regenerated cellulose, fibers, but satisfactory results are also obtained on acrylic, polyester and polyamide fiber materials.
  • For optimum results ENCEE SOFT - C should be applied on a winch or a jigger at a pH of 5 - 5.5. Treatment time should be 15 - 20 minutes at room temperature.
  • ENCEE SOFT - C can also be applied on a padding mangle. The temperature of drying should be 120°C. Because of its cationic nature, other ingredients of the padding solution would be checked for compatibility. ENCEE SOFT - C is easily soluble in warm water. It can be dissolved in about five times the quantity of warm water with proper stirring. Further dilution can be effected with cold water.
The following recipes are recommended when ENCEE SOFT - C is used as a softner
  • Cotton terry towels : Materials may be treated on a jigger or a winch with 5 - 7 gpl solution for 20 - 30 min.
  • Staple viscose yarns : Materials may be used with 0.3 - 1 gpl of ENCEE SOFT - C in the last rinse in a liquor circulating machine.
  • Knitted cotton goods : After dyeing, the goods may be softened with 3 - 5 gpl of ENCEE SOFT - C
  • Acrylic yarns : 1 -2 gpl ENCEE SOFT - C may be added to the last rinse in a liquor circulating machine. It can also be used in a dyebath together with basic dyes. Softening crease - resistant finished spun viscous fabrics
  • Wool : ENCEE SOFT - C has excellent softening effect on wool and wool unions, bleached on dyed woolen yarns. For wool, 1 - 5 gpl ENCEE SOFT - C may be used.
