The manufacturer of sodium hexametaphosphate in China tells you textile printing and dyeing with SHMP as soft water can enhance color fastness
The quality of water not only has a great influence on the product quality of pretreatment and other processes, but also affects the consumption of dyeing and chemical materials and auxiliaries. The manufacturer of sodium hexametaphosphate in China tells you that in textile printing and dyeing industry, sodium hexametaphosphate is a good softener, which makes the dye or soap powder not precipitate or agglomerate. The standard for distinguishing soft water from hard water is as follows: soft water 0-57ppm, slightly hard water 57-100ppm, hard water 100-280ppm, extremely hard water>280ppm. Calcium and magnesium salts in hard water are unfavorable to printing and dyeing. For example, they react with soap to form insoluble calcium and magnesium soap, precipitate on fabric, and form insoluble scale in alkaline solution, which is attached to pretreatment equipment (such as groove inner wall, valve and guide roller), hindering normal production. When the amount of iron and manganese sal
