These concentrates achieve IPA
repellency grade 6, i.e., the nonwoven fabric shows
repellency to a mix of 60% isopropyl alcohol (IPA)
and 40% water*.
Specially formulated for both
spunbond and meltblown manufacturing processes,
they have no visible influence on color and can be
customized to combine water repellency and color
into one product for added convenience.
APPLICATIONS
• Construction: roofing underlay, cable wrapping,
geotextiles
• Medical: surgical gowns, surgical drapes, sterile
tray wraps, hospital bed sheets, and curtains
• Filtration: various filters that require water
repellency
BENEFITS
• Fast and long-lasting water repellency
• IPA repellency grade 6
• No visible influence on the final color of the
nonwoven fabric
• Can be combined with color into a single
product for convenience
• Regulatory compliance to key standards and
support for specific standards
