Solubility: Freely soluble in water
pH: Approx. 8
Ionicity: Non-ionic
Stability
Has tendency to dry on prolonged exposure to atmosphere but can be re-dispersed with addition of water and stirring.
Compatibility
Leomine Whitener LNI is compatible with anionic, cationic and non-ionic auxiliaries.
Safety
When using this product, the information and advice given in our Material Safety Data Sheet should be observed. Due attention should also be given to the precautions necessary for handling chemicals. 
Application
Leomine Whitener LNI should be thoroughly stirred before application. Recommended application recipes:
Exhaust Process: 

• 0.1-0.5% Leomine Whitener LNI
• 0.5-1 g/1 Leomine Disperse XPD
• pH 4.5-5.5 (Acetic acid)
• Liquor ratio 1 : 5 to 1 : 20
• Initial temperature : 50-60°C
• Heat up to 100°C in 30 min
• 30-45 min at 100°C
• The addition of Leomine Disperse XPD is particularly necessary in the fluorescent brightening of wound packages.

Thermosol process, two-stage drying and fixation:

• 0.5-5 g/l Leomine Whitener LNI
• Liquor pick-up : approx.60-70%
• Dry : approx. 120°C
• Thermosol : 180-200°C
• Time : 30-45 sec 

The fixation conditions depend on the fabric construction. Tightly woven and relatively heavy qualities require longer fixation times or higher fixation temperatures than lightweight open materials. The padded and dried fabric should be protected from prolonged exposure to light because the unfixed fluorescent brightener is sensitive to light.
Single - stage drying and fixation
In this procedure, the equipment used has a considerable influence on the fixation time and temperature. Empirical values are therefore more reliable than general recommendations. In case of doubt, it is advisable to carry out preliminary trials. The amount of Leomine Whitener LNI used is the same as in the two-stage drying and fixation process.
Fixation process for the fluorescent brightening of printed grounds:
The fluorescent brightening of printed grounds is frequently carried out in conjunction with the thermosol process. Knitgoods produced from texturized PES can also brightened by the HT process.
