APPLICATION

When used as a softener for cotton and polyester/cotton blends, it imparts extremely silky rich softness.
When used in resin finishing, it controls the loss in tensile strength, since it acts as an excellent lubricant.
When applied to hosiery and knitted goods, apart from imparting excellent silky soft touch, it improves the stretch back property. Hence MAKSOFT-AMS strongly recommended for hosiery and knitted material.
It may be applied both by padding as well C'S exhaust techniques since it has affinity towards the fibres. The concentration may be varied between 5 to 25 gpl, or 0.5 to 2% (o.w.f.), depending upon the extent of softeness required. It may be used as a self-finish or with other finishing agents.
