SPECIALLY DESIGNED ACRYLIC POLYMER TO IMPROVE THE PROPERTIES OF STARCH LIKE BINDING AND ABRASION RESISTANCE DURING SIZING

RAN-1000 is a new generation polymer designed with latest organic and physical chemistry used for sizing of spun yarn using starch based recipe.

RAN-1000 gives 10% to 25% cost reduction by replacing PVA, Acrylic solution, CMC and Gum

Features Benefits
Polymeric Structure Higher degree of lubricity.
Film Forming Nature Forms a continuous and smooth film on the yarn and hence improves the coating, minimising the protruding fibre on yarn.
Speciality Co-Polymer Leads to improved wetting and penetration along with high degree of adhesion.
Concentrated Product Requires less storage space.
Good Compatibility Compatible with most of the textile size ingredients.
High Lubricity Improves wet pick-up by 15-20% at 0.5 – 1.0% concentration of size solution.

1 kg. of RAN-1000 replaces

2-2.5 kg.PVA OR
6-8 kg. 20% Acrylic solution OR
6-8 kg. Gum OR
4-6 kg. CMC
OR
200gm. Antistatic agent OR
25% Softener

The best performance is seen with 50 kg. of starch, 2-3 kg. of  RAN-1000, 4 to 5 kg. of Z-3000 ACP along with softeners like R-Soft-44.  One can add, additional PVA, polyester resin or other binders as needed. Use of RAN-1000 leads to better surface coverage and smoother coating.

  • Stir the RAN-1000 carboy for 5 minutes before using for the first time.
  • Take the desired level of water, add 50 kg. of starch or other binding agents while stirring continuously for 5 minutes.
  • Take RAN-1000 in clean dry vessel, weigh it and add desired quantity of RAN-1000 to the mixture over a period of 1-2 minutes while stirring.
  • Transfer the above mixture to a pressure cooker and heat it till the starch is completely cooked and degelatinized.
  • Add softener to the above and keep the temp. at 90-92oC. Stir occasionally while using.

Store the carboys at room temperature in a shade.

The minimum shelf life of RAN-1000 is six months.
