Application Details
  • WACKER® EAF 300 is particularly suitable as an active substance in softener formulations for the impregnation of fibers and textiles.
  • WACKER® EAF 300 imparts a very soft, drapable, and elastic handle to woven and knitted fabrics. WACKER® EAF 300 is considered to be the best softening agent for cotton woven and knit fabrics made of cotton or cotton/PES blends.
  • WACKER® EAF 300 improves the wash-and-wear properties and the crease recovery angle, sewability and tear strength and reduces abrasion loss. The effects are fast to washing and dry cleaning.
  • WACKER® EAF 300 has very little effect on the degree of white in a softener formulation when usual application conditions are adhered to. As a rule, no adverse effect on the shade or color fastness properties of colored goods is observed.
  • As part of formulations used as fill fiber finish WACKER® EAF 300 imparts excellent slickness and resilience to the fiber.
