BURNING BEHAVIOUR OF RECRON-FS

• The phosphorous compound in the polyester chain has an important function. Fast flame propagation is due to radicals in the flame. The phosphorouscompound catches the radicals and thus interrupt the chain reaction andextinguish the flame.

Recron® FS – General Guidelines

Recron® FS is• Modified polyester with in-built inherent FR (Flame Retardent) properties• Softer in nature with better dye uptake• It is suggested to take precautions in different stages to ensure FR efficacy is

intact in the finished product*• All auxiliaries used in down stream processes should be thoroughly checked,

validated and must be easily washable from finished product. This is true even if the auxiliaries themselves possess flame retardant (FR) characteristics.

• Process to be to be tried first in lab, checked for product FR efficacy & then to be used in bulk processes

• Recron® FS has technologically superior efficacy; we suggest not to mix with FR products from other suppliers.

*All information shared in this document are indicative and these need to be adopted based upon the actual hardware

Recron® FS POY & DTY

Recommendation for texturing1. Lower primary heater temperature by 5 – 10* C recommended2. T2 tension would be higher compared to regular3. Conning oil used must be easily washable during hot wash, mineral oils

are not recommended

Recommendation for Twisting1. Lower Winding tension is advised for Recron® FS2. Use proper oil which is easily washable, maximum < 1% on yarn for easy

removal in after processes3. Heat setting temperature around 90oC .4. Higher shrinkage in feed yarns needs softer packages for Dyeing

Recron® FS: Dyeing

• Dyeing procedure is generally similar to regular polyester• Use standard disperse dyestuff for dyeing• Scouring process is important to remove external material, needs extra attention.• Suggest max Dyeing temp 125 ± 3 °C (to prevent hydrolytic damages)• Silicone based Defoamers / Softeners etc. must be avoided• Reduction clearing especially for Medium & Dark colors by using Hydro / Soda ash• Additives, auxiliaries and lubricants must be completely removable• Tentative FR Yarn package density can be 0.35+/-0.04• Cycle time of In-out 3 min & out-in 5 min is recommended

Caution- NOT to use Caustic or Oxalic acid- Final Product must be free of Silicon or any lubricant- Carriers MUST not be used

Recron® FS Scouring

• Above information is based upon the effectiveness of Textile Auxiliaries (by Archoma). Similar productsfrom other suppliers may also be used.

• Depending upon the Textile construction and available machinery, technological adjustments may benecessary

1. Rinse twice at 80°C

2. Neutralize for 15minutes at 60 °C with acetic acid to achieve pH of 6-7

3. Rinse at 50 °C

During RC, pH to be maintained around 10.5After rinsing , it is suggested to boil a small sample in DM water

to confirm all Alkali from fabric are removed.

After Treatment: Finishing

• To reduce friction on the fiber / yarn , it is necessary to apply lubricants after the dyeing which do not affect FR efficacy

• Lubricants and additives applied must be easily removable.

Treat for 20 minutes at 40°C with:

• 2 g/l Leomin KP

• 1 g/l Leomin OR

• Similar chemicals from other branded vendors can also be used to get the desired results.

• Silicon based products must be avoided at all stages of wet processing.
