2. Application:

The required amount of Cepreton UC p is dispersed in cold water. Dispersions with up to 15% active substance are pumpable and pourable. Higher concentrations produce high viscosity pastes. Cepreton UC p can be added straight to the drum in cold water after the final rinse for garment dyeing, jeans washing and in laundries. Preparing Cepreton UC p dispersions The required amount of pastilles can be added into cold water and stand for several hours, then stirring for several minutes until homogeneous dispersion is made. If 50-60ºC warm water is used, the required Cepreton UC p can be added into the warm water under stirring, then stirring until homogeneous dispersion is made.
