Printing auxiliaries: including adhesives, thickeners, cross-linking agents, emulsifiers, softeners, diffusing agents and defoaming agents, etc.;
Dyeing auxiliaries: including leveling agents, color fixing agents, dispersants, fluorescent whitening agents, etc.;
Finishing additives: including softener, waterproofing agent, antibacterial agent, moisture absorption and perspiration additive, antistatic agent, UV absorber, etc.


Pre-treatment additives: Mainly used to remove natural or artificial impurities on the fabric and give full play to the excellent properties of the fabric, such as whiteness, softness and good permeability, to meet the needs of subsequent processes. Pretreatment additives mainly include wetting agents, penetrating agents, bleaching agents, cleaning agents, etc. Printing and dyeing auxiliaries refer to a series of auxiliaries used in the dyeing and printing process, in addition to dyes and coatings, mainly including emulsifiers, dispersants, leveling agents, color fixing agents, fluorescent whitening agents, and paint printing Auxiliaries, reducing agents, dye release agents, anti-dye agents, stripping agents, dye enhancers, anti-migration agents, etc.

Finishing additives: improve the appearance and intrinsic quality of fabrics through physical and chemical processing, improve hand feel, stabilize shape, improve wearing performance or give fabrics certain special functions, such as anti-shrinkage, anti-wrinkle, flame retardant, antistatic, Anti-mildew, anti-bacteria, anti-fouling and anti-oil, etc.
Textile auxiliaries play an indispensable role in improving the product quality and added value of textiles. It can not only give textiles various special functions and styles, but also improve the dyeing and finishing process, save energy and reduce processing costs.
