VINAQUEST CEP is stable towards alkalis, acids and reducing agents in the concentrations normally used in practice. VINAQUEST CEP is stable towards oxidizing agents except chemicals containing chlorine.
The product is to a certain extent sensitive to frost; changes occurring at low temperatures disappear when warming and after thorough stirring.
DILUTION
VINAQUEST CEP is miscible with cold and warm water in every ratio
APPLICATION
VINAQUEST CEP is a sequestering agent with very high binding properties towards hardening agents and heavy metals.
VINAQUEST CEP can be used as sequestering agent in the pretreatment for continuous and discontinuous methods.
The use of VINAQUEST CEP prevents the deposition of insoluble alkaline earth silicates on the fabric and on the machine.
RECIPE PROPOSALS
The application amounts depend on the content of hardening agents and on the heavy metal content.
