4 Imerol Blue liq Imerol Blue liq Multi-functionality Proven features Imerol Blue liq has more than one rabbit in its hat. The combination of its exceptional properties, based on the Singulet Bleaching Technology, opens new doors for the exhaust bleaching world. Key functions Oxygen-active donor Wetting-washing and dispersing agent Balance activation/stabilization Collapsor of ph Protector against cellulose degradation Removes fatty substances (high absorbency) Disperses oiling agents (no redeposition, no spots) ph Classic Blue Magic min Wetting High penetration power (Tampex penetration test) Washing 0 g/l 1 g/l 2 g/l 4 g/l Strong detergency (wash test on standard soiled fabric) No foaming No foaming behavior Alkali stable Alkali stable up to 6 Bé and biodegradable With Imerol Blue liq the following features are granted: High wetting and penetration power (Tampex penetration test) to convey quickly the bleaching bath to the core of the fiber. Strong detergency (wash test) and dispersing behavior to remove the contaminants and keep them away from the fiber. No foaming behavior. Machine turbulences are never an issue. Stable up to 6 Bé NaOH, suitable for all exhaust bleaching applications. 6 7

5 Bactosol SAP liq c Application range Economic flexibility One for all Bactosol SAP liq c is a hybrid catalase enzyme with a wide scope of application: flexible ph (4 9), flexible temperature (20 70 C) and flexible application (discontinuous continuous). There is no more need of perfectly adjusted ph and temperature: the elimination of peroxide is total in every case! % Enzyme-Activity The new Blue Magic process can be used in all the different forms of discontinuous pretreatment.
