CMC for Textile Printing and Dyeing

Introduction:

CMC is an anionic water-soluble polymer based on renewable cellulosic raw material.

Our WGCEL CMC  plays a vital role in textile printing and dyeing, offering several benefits in terms of fabric quality, dye penetration, and process efficiency.

Key Functions:

Thickening Agent in Printing Pastes

CMC is used as a thickener in textile printing pastes to control viscosity.

Ensures uniform color distribution, preventing bleeding and smudging.

Provides sharp and clear patterns in fabric printing.

Improves Dye Adhesion & Fixation

Helps bind dyes to fabric fibers, improving color fastness.

Enhances dye penetration, ensuring vibrant and even coloration.

Water Retention & Moisture Control

Prevents drying of printing pastes and dye baths, improving application consistency.

Enhances dye absorption by keeping fabric moist during the process.

Protective Colloid in Reactive Dyeing

Acts as a protective colloid, preventing dye aggregation and improving dye stability in reactive dyeing.

Improves Fabric Softness & Strength

Enhances fabric smoothness and feel, reducing stiffness after dyeing and printing.

Helps prevent fiber damage during processing.

Eco-Friendly Alternative

CMC is a biodegradable, non-toxic alternative to synthetic thickeners, making textile processing more sustainable.

Easy Washing & Removal

water-soluble, making it easy to wash off after printing or dyeing without leaving residues.

Packing and Storage:

Packing: 25kg/50lb kraft paper bag with PE inner. customizable packaging

Storage Conditions:

Temperature: Store in a cool, dry place at temperatures between 5°C and 30°C (41°F – 86°F).  

Humidity: Keep in an environment with low humidity (<50% RH) to prevent moisture absorption.  

Ventilation: Ensure proper air circulation to avoid condensation and clumping.  

Avoid Direct Sunlight: Store away from direct heat and UV light to prevent degradation.
