Rongalit C p, Discharge and Reducing Agent, Discharge Printing Agent, Vat Printing Chemical, Color and White Discharge With Vat Dyes, (Archroma)

Rongalit® C p is a discharge and reducing agent developed by Archroma, primarily used in discharge printing, direct printing, and the two-phase process with vat dyes. It is suitable for discharge printing on dyed cellulosic fabrics and offers excellent solubility and stability under proper storage conditions.

Key Features:

  • Appearance: White powder.

  • Chemical Composition: Sulfinic acid derivative.

  • Decomposition Temperature: Above 50°C, thermal decomposition may occur.

  • pH: Approximately 10 (10% aqueous solution).

  • Solubility: Approximately 600 g/l in water at 20°C. The dissolving process is endothermic.

  • Storage Stability: Can be stored in sealed containers for up to 24 months under good conditions. Opened containers should be used quickly and resealed properly.

  • Safety: Avoid moist conditions and storage with oxidizing agents or acids. The product is hygroscopic and should be stored in dry, acid-free conditions.

Applications:

  1. Direct Printing with Vat Dyes:

    • Stock Thickening Recipe:

      • 550 g Thickener.

      • 30-50 g Glycerine.

      • 130 g Potash or 100 g Soda ash.

      • 130 g Rongalit® C p.

      • Water or thickening to make 1000 g.

    • Print Color Composition:

      • X g Vat dye (printing grade).

      • 650 g Stock thickening.

      • Water or thickening to make 1000 g.

    • Process: After printing and drying, the fabric is steamed for 8-12 minutes with saturated steam at 102°C (air-free).

  2. Color Discharge Printing with Vat Dyes:

    • Suitable for dischargeable dyed cellulosic fibers.

    • The stock thickening used in direct printing can also be applied here. The amount of Rongalit® C p and alkali (potash or soda ash) may need to be increased depending on the dischargeability and color depth of the dyed ground.

  3. White Discharge Printing:

    • Paste A (for easily dischargeable dyeings with substantive and reactive dyes):

      • 500 g Thickener.

      • 150 g Rongalit® C p.

      • 10 g Suitable discharge-resistant optical brightener.

      • Water or thickening to make 1000 g.

    • Paste B (for more difficult to discharge reactive dyes and naphthol combinations):

      • 500 g Thickener.

      • 200 g Rongalit® C p.

      • 10 g Suitable discharge-resistant optical brightener.

      • 40 g Caustic soda 38°Bé or soda ash.

      • Water or thickening to make 1000 g.

    • Process: After drying, the fabric is steamed for 8-10 minutes with saturated steam at 102°C (air-free).

  4. Two-Phase Printing Process with Vat Dyes:

    • Application Rate: 100 g Rongalit® C p.

    • Process: The printed and dried fabrics are padded and steamed for 5-7 minutes with saturated or slightly superheated steam (110°C-115°C). The fabric is then rinsed, alkaline re-oxidized, and given a boiling soaping treatment.

Important Notes:

  • Thorough After-Washing: Essential to ensure proper fixation and removal of residues.

  • Storage: Store in dry, acid-free conditions. Avoid contact with oxidizing agents or acids.

  • Safety Data: Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed toxicological and ecological information.
