Soil Release Polymer with rheology control

TexCare™ Gemini SG Terra

This bio-based nonionic soil release polymer combines excellent secondary cleaning performance in liquid laundry detergents with unique rheology control. It is therefore especially suitable for detergents which require viscosity build up.
Benefícios
  • Soil release polymer with integrated rheology technology
  • Viscosity stabilization or thickening of detergents depending on surfactant system; additional thickeners become obsolete  
  • Enables cold washing due to its versatile contribution to cleaning performance
  • Soil release effect enables fiber protection against dirt and prevents dirt from penetrating deep into the fabric
  • Contributes to primary detergency enabling a detergency boost or more weight efficient detergents
  • Extra whiteness through its good soil anti-redepositioning effect
  • Increases wear comfort of clothes due to fiber hydrophilization
  • Broad tolerance to the most common surfactant systems

Soil Release Effect

Fabrics made from polyester and polyester/cotton can be difficult to clean when they are soiled with oily or fatty stains. Such stains adhere strongly to the hydrophobic synthetic fibers, which are then only poorly wetted by the washing liquor.

If these fabrics are washed with a detergent containing a soil release polymer from the TexCare series, e.g. TexCare™ Gemini SG Terra, the soil release polymer is adsorbed onto the hydrophobic fibers and forms a hydrophilic film. This prevents the soil from adhering directly to the fibers. Furthermore, the affinity of hydrophobic soils for the hydrophilic film is reduced significantly compared to the untreated fibers. This makes it much easier to remove oily stains from the fabric during subsequent washing.

Primary Detergency
A further benefit of TexCare Gemini SG Terra is the improvement of primary detergency on oily and greasy soils. Even without a first prewash of the fabric to give it a soil release finish, soil is removed better from polyester and polyester/cotton.
Anti-Redeposition
Lime soap and various soils present in the washing liquor need to be dispersed in order to avoid redeposition onto the fabrics present. A detergent which poorly fulfills this requirement will lead to greying of the washed garments. Due to its amphiphilic structure, TexCare Gemini SG Terra can effectively aid in the dispersion of this soil and prevents redeposition through repelling soil from the polyester fabric surface.
