Send EmailRongalit 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.
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.
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).
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.
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).
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.
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.
