Product Information

Polysoft-55 is a new generation softener, based on blocked silicone chemistry. It works very well on all substrates. It imparts very good surface smoothness and body break on the treated substrates. Another advantage is that it can reduce the caustic during weight reduction process of polyester. It can be applied by padding as well as by exhaust method. Being shear stable, Polysoft-55 can also be used in jet dyeing machine.
