Specifications

BENEFITS

   
 *  Fully formulated product.  
 *  Use with or without pumice stone thus reducing machine damage  
 *  Built-in buffer system controls pH.  
 *  Powerful Surfactant system minimises re-deposition on a range   
    of fabrics.  
   
INTRODUCTION   
   
DK 463 S is designed for use with or without pumice stone to give maximum abrasion with minimum damage   
during the treatment of denim garments.  
   
   
TEMPERATURE PROFILE   
   
The temperature range of the Neutral products is also  wide, the optimum temperature is 50°C, however, the   
products will perform at 25°C.  Again, this wide range of temperature, coupled with the broad pH makes the     Neutral range extremely User Friendly.  

pH PROFILE

Denykem's neutral enzyme has a broad pH and temperature range.  The pH activity range of Ultima products is from 5.5 to 7.9 with minimal drop in activity. However, it is Denykem's recommendation that the products be used between pH 6 and 7.5.  This broad band allows the Neutral cellulase to perform in a variety of local conditions.  The broad range, as well as a strong buffer system, overcomes internal deviations in pH.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
