INTRODUCTION Phenolic Yellowing (Storage Yellowing) Textile fabrics and packaging materials (that contain BHT) come into contact with each other during storage or transportation. Here again, antioxidants are converted into yellow compounds by the action of NOx-gases. A treatment with special kind of anti-yellowing inhibitors offers a long lasting protection of textile against storage yellowing. ANTI-YELLOWING INHIBITOR FOR NYLON FABRICS CHEMICAL COMPOSITION: Aqueous preparation of alkylsulphonate salt CHARACTERISTICS: Application material Application field Appearance: Ionicity: Solubility / Emulsifiability: PH-value of 1% solution: Resistance: Storage: Stability to frost: Usage method: polyamide as well as their mixtures with elastane storage and transportation brown liquid Anionic miscible in cold water pH7-pH9 no thermal decomposition when stored and handled at least 12 months if properly stored not sensitive to frost exhaust process

APPLICATION PROPERTIES: The yellowing of stored textiles essentially depends on the following conditions: the presence of a sterically hindered phenol (e.g. BHT) the presence of nitrogen oxides humidity, time and temperature prevents yellowing in the presence of BHT which is often present in plastic bags, elastane, polyurethane foam(in bras) etc. It can be applied to polyamide textiles, especially white and pale shade goods One-bath with optical brightening or dyeing by exhaust process high affinity with polyamide fiber good resistant to washing free from APEO biodegradable
