SIRRIX®
Sequestering and dispersing agents
Our SIRRIX® neutralizing and sequestering agents are strong and flexible to ensure consistent textile quality. Neutralizing agents adjust the pH during dyeing or finishing to help prevent fiber damage, while sequestering agents bind metal ions to prevent them from interfering with textile processing.
SIRRIX® NE is a strong universal neutralizing agent made up multiple organic acids that work together to allow efficient and precise control across the whole pH range. With no blocking buffer, it is able to go beyond surface-level pH issues to neutralize the core of the acid or alkaline molecules. SIRRIX® NE is biodegradable and does not contain phosphorus or nitrogen.
