I would like to introduce to you our Indian company Zydex Industries, promoted by Dr Ajay Ranka. We manufacture and globally market new generation polymers and formulated products for textile processing applications. One of our key product is “Zypol” which is a water dispersible polyester resin is being extensively used for the production of resin bonded non wovens. The product “Zypol” has following salient features.
It is a high molecular weight polyester resin having excellent affinity to polyester fiber/ yarn/ fabric substrates. The product provides excellent multi point bonding at lower resin gsm compared to acrylics.
The product Zypol is available as 100% solid in granule form. It can be cooked in water in a stirrer with high speed stirring ( approx 1400 rpm) and temperature of about 100C. Max 30% solid resin could be cooked in about 1 hour. This avoids transporting/ handling/ storing of liquid resins as is the case with acrylic binders.
Zypol is thermoplastic in nature unlike acrylics which are thermo sets. Hence, resin bonded non wovens produced out of Zypol are recyclable and hence eco friendly.
Zypol treated non wovens can be dried at around 100C unlike acrylics /SBR which require temperature of about 140C. This saves energy.
I am sure that your company being a large global manufacturer of resin bonded non wovens would be interested in knowing/ testing Zypol and its suitability for your applications. My colleague Hiren would forward to you Zypol brochure for reference.
Thank you in anticipation.
