Recommendation
A very special property
of SCMC is to stop the redeposition of dirt
particles on to the cloth in laundering
process. Addition of a small amount of SCMC
to detergents especially a synthetic detergent
results in a marked improvement of its soil
suspending properties. Synthetic detergents
as a class are comparatively poor in this
respect and the practice of adding SCMC
to them is universal. SCMC is most beneficial
in the laundering of cotton.
About
10% of the “active matter” of
a laundry detergent powder should be the
percentage added as SCMC. This is normally
1-2% SCMC. It is the carboxyl group, which
attracts the dirt and holds it, stopping
redeposition onto the cloth. |
