⚙️ Core Functions

Core Functional Roles of Cellulose Ether in Textile Printing

01
💧

Thickening Agent – Viscosity Control for Precision Printing

  • • Provides adjustable and stable viscosity for different dye or pigment systems.
  • • Ensures even paste deposition on the fabric surface.
  • • Prevents undesirable effects such as running, bleeding, or color spreading.
02
🎯

Binder & Stabilizer – Strength and Color Definition

  • • Enhances adhesion between pigments/dyes and fabric fibers, ensuring durable prints.
  • • Maintains color uniformity across production runs.
  • • Stabilizes reactive dyes and pigment dispersions, ensuring high print definition and sharp edges.
03
🔄

Rheology Modifier – Consistent Flow and Process Stability

  • • Creates suitable flow behavior for different printing techniques (screen, roller, digital).
  • • Prevents aggregation and sedimentation of pigments or insoluble additives.
  • • Ensures stable paste performance during both storage and real-time application.
04
💦

Water-Retention Agent – Moisture Balance During Printing & Fixation

  • • Controls water evaporation during drying or steaming, improving color fixation.
  • • Prevents drying defects, dye migration, and cracking.
  • • Contributes to improved color strength and brightness after curing.
05
✨

Fabric Handle Enhancer – Softness and Comfort

  • • Retains natural textile softness after printing.
  • • Prevents stiffness often caused by high-thickener concentration.
  • • Enhances the final hand feel, flexibility, and drape of finished fabrics.

Outcome:

Stable printing paste, vivid coloration, precise pattern definition, and superior fabric touch.
