Applications
Polyfam 706 is a suitable binder for a wide variety of nonwoven applications. It imparts shear strength, transverse strength, tear strength, wet tensile strength and stiffness to the finished fabrics by performing a firm resilient film. The binder is economical and offer ease of usage by spraying coating, dipping, nipping, foaming or in bath. Polyfam 706 can be simply blended with other dispersions to achieve intermediate properties.
The various applications include garment, interlining, wadding, apparels, disposable and durable surgical upholstery, filters, geo-textiles, facial tissues, hygienic products, glass tissues, etc.
Polyfam 706 performs well with synthetic fibers, cellulosics and blends and can be used on conventional bonding, drying and curing lines. It is also recommended for use in fabric finishing, pigment printing, spray bonding, fiber fill, adhesive for lamination, flocking and paper coating.
Polyfam 706 is characterized by its ease of formulation, resistance to discoloration, excellent pigment bonding properties and durability to washing and drycleaning.
It offers formulating flexibility with additives due to its nonionic nature and is especially recommended for fabric finishing and backcoating applications when a firm hand is desired.
