| OBJECT: |
Disperse dye powders to insure complete dispersion and maximum color value.
|
|
PROBLEM:
|
Dyes dispersed in water with paddle, steam or propeller can agglomerate and cause specking, streaking and/or settling.
|
|
RESULT:
|
By mixing dye powders in water creating downward vortex, dyes are wet out and no or few agglomerates form. By reversing mixer and homogenizing in up-mode, dyes are completely dispersed. This produces better color value and guarantees zero specking. |
|
AB MIXER:
|
Small mixers can be used here since this is water (low) viscosity mixing. T-1 for 5-55 gallon drum, T-2 for 100 gallons and T-2 Sp. L. for 150-250 gallons.
