High-Performance Sequestering Agents for Textile Processing
Ensure consistent dyeing, prevent scaling, and achieve superior fabric whiteness with Texaux’s effective sequestering agents.
Purity That Defines Performance
Hard water impurities such as calcium, magnesium, and heavy metal ions can severely affect dyeing and finishing results. Texaux Chemicals’ Sequestering Agents are scientifically formulated to bind and inactivate metal ions, ensuring smooth processing, stable dye baths, and improved fabric appearance.
Our products perform efficiently across a wide pH and temperature range, suitable for pretreatment, dyeing, and finishing processes.
