PFOA-PFOS-free fluorinated water repellent and super oil repellent agent
PARAGUARD TO-8 / TON-8 / TOS-8


 Super oil repellent finish as well as excellent water repellent finish may be materialized by using PARAGUARD TO-8 in combination with PARAGUARD TON-8 or TOS-8.

 PARAGUARD TO-8 / TON-8 / TOS-8 are two-component fluorinated water and oil repellent agent which contain neither PFOS nor PFOA. PARAGUARD TO-8 is used for cellulose fiber in combination with PARAGUARD TON-8 and for synthetic fiber with PARAGUARD TOS-8.

 Newly developed PARAGUARD TO-8 / TON-8 / TOS-8 materialize super oil repellency with 8, the highest oil repellency grade. And even if treated cloth laundered several times, durable performance may be offered by drying with tumble dryer.

Preliminary test should be carried out to check performance. Particularly, performance might deteriorate with cotton dyed cloth in which fixing agent is likely to remain.
In order to avoid quality deterioration, the container should be closed airtightly and stored at cool dark place.
Prevent the product from being in contact with PFOA or PFOS containing chemical.

The information herein offered is based on the best of our knowledge at present. However, we are not able to guarantee these matters, as the result of application may vary according to conditions adopted. Preliminary tests are, therefore, recommended in all cases.  Please refer to MSDS regarding handling of the products.
