J-size DNP-3


PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

J-size DNP-3 is a specially formulated textile warp sizing agent for application to 100% cotton and
cotton blended yarns of yarn counts ranging from 7's upto 32's on semi-high speed weaving looms.

Average Moisture Content - 10%
Physical Appearance - Powder to Granular
Color - Off White
Average pH (10% Slurry) - 6.5

J- size DNP-3 is a combination of natural polymer size formula bases with additives such as softeners,
adhesion promoters, plasticizers, anti-bacteria and anti-fungi agents presented in a dry powdered solid
form.


PRODUCT PREPARATION

J-size DNP-3 may be prepared in turbo cookers, kettles with direct steam injection or pressure type
vessels.


PRODUCT APPLICATION

Solid concentrations from 6% to 10% may be applied depending on the characteristics of the warp
yarn, the density of the weave, the type of weave and the type of weaving equipment to be used.

For successful weaving on normal 7/1 cotton warps, made out of open end yarns, a size add on of
approximately 10% is desired. For the same warps, made out of ring spun yarns, the required size add
on is close to 8%.


DESIZING

Size removal is simple. J-size DNP-3 washes out in regular enzymatic system. A small quantity of a
non-ionic detergent is more than satisfactory for complete removal.The use of high concentrations of
strong electrolytes in the desizing bath, such as caustic soda,is prohibited.
