Incorporated directly into the yarn during extrusion, they provide efficient stain-release properties and reduce the need for additional treatments to impart stain-resistance efficacy to polyester textiles.
Additionally, color can be integrated into the additive in a Smartbatch™ combination concentrate for seamless incorporation of both color and stain-resistance efficacy in the fiber with the spin-dyeing (dope-dyeing) process, a one-in-one fiber manufacturing and dyeing method using no water.
For more information on the benefits of spin-dyeing (dope-dyeing), visit the website here.
