Rhodia's Repel®-O- Tex is a patented family of specialty polymer additives that achieves unequalled effectiveness in stain removal and fiber protection, for use in laundry powders and tablets.
Effective and easy to use
Today's formulators are facing a triple challenge. They require easy-to-use products that can be added straightforwardly to laundry powder and tablet formulations. They expect the products to be effective in stain removal for all types of stains. And they want their solutions to prevent fibers from soil adhesion.
The Repel®-O-Tex polymer additives are ready-to-use products, to be post-added in existing or new formulations for domestic or industrial laundry powders and tablets. It facilitates soil removal during washing cycle and protects fibers to avoid soils adhesion.
Features and benefits
The product ensures the elimination of greasy and particulate soils from the first wash, prevents soil adhesion, transfer and re-deposition and is absorbed only into clean fabric with no entrapment of soil and no interaction with primary cleaning. It is also highly efficient in dealing with wide range of soils including make-up, bike grease, kitchen oil and tomato sauce.
Applications
Repel®-O-Tex polymers are designed for all types of laundry formulations - there is an appropriate grade for each surfactant system. Best efficiency is provided on polyester and polyester-cotton blends.
