Application

Lava Fast CNC improves considerably the fastness to water,


perspiration and ironing. Also the wash fastness of natural and
regenerated cellulosic fibres, dyed and printed with direct dyes are
improved.

Lava Fast CNC prevents a deterioration of wet fastness properties


caused by reactive dyestuff hydrolysates.

In addition, Lava Fast CNC prevents migration of substantive dyes and


reactive dyestuff hydrolysates during the drying process and protects
reactive dyeings and printings against hydrolysis and thermocracking
during processing and use.

Lava Fast CNC is very suitable for improving the wet fastness properties
of dyed and printed WO and silk fibers, it is free of formaldehyde and
epihalogen hydrin compounds, the influence on shade and light fastness
is negligible.

Lava Fast CNC shows a good compatibility with non-ionic and cationic
products. Precipitations will, however, occur with anionic products.

An aftertreatment with Lava Fast CNC will not noticeably impair handle
and sewability.

Dyeing/Printing

In order to optimize fastness properties, the well rinsed, resp. soaped


goods should be aftertreated as follows:

Exhaust method

Aftertreatment of CEL

with direct dyes


0.5 - 1.5 % for pale to medium shades
1.5 - 3% for medium to dark shades

with reactive dyes

0.5 - 1.0 % for pale to medium shades


1.0 - 2.0 % for medium to dark shades

pH 5 - 6, 20 - 30 min 40°C.

In the case of one-bath softening with cationic products, a two-step


process should be applied: at first the cationic softener is added and
then, after 5 - 10 min and at the same temperature, Lava Fast CNC.

Aftertreatment of WO and silk

0.5 - 1.5 % (1.5 - 3%)


for pale to medium shades (for Superwash-WO)
1.5 - 3 % (3 - 5%)
for medium to dark shades (for Superwash-WO)

At first you should treat the goods for 10 min, at pH 7 - 8, at 20 - 30°C,


then heat up the bath to 40 - 50°C within 10 min, leave dwelling for
approx. 5 min, drain and rinse cold shortly.

The above stated for CO dyeing is also applicable for the one-bath two
step method with Lava Fast CNC and a cationic softener.

Padding

Dyeing of CEL, WO and silk (dry in wet)

Depending on depth of shade: 10.0 - 30.0 g/l


Pad temperature: 20 - 30°C
Drying

Stripping of faulty dyeings

If aftertreated goods are to be redyed, leveled out or stripped, it is at first


necessary to remove Lava Fast CNC according to the following method:
3.0 ml/l formic acid 85% and
3.0g/l Sera Sperse M-IS Liq (liquid, anionic dispersing agent)
30 min at 90°C.
Subsequently, rinse thoroughly warm and cold. 2.0 g/l Sera Sperse M-IS
Liq are also recommended as "leveling agent" in the subsequent
overdyeing recipe.
Finishing
Lava Fast CNC can be used as additive to finishes in order to improve
the wet fastness properties of direct dyes and to reduce color bleeding.
Care should, however, be taken regarding the compatibility of finishes
with Lava Fast CNC (preliminary trials).
Depending on type of dyestuff, the usual concentrations are 10.0 - 30.0
g/l.
