| Product | Type | Main features |
|---|---|---|
Coriacide® | Metal free dyestuffs range | Metal free anionic dyes, mainly homogeneous with good fastness and excellent combinability to produce brilliant and deep shades. |
Derma® Soft | Predispersed dyestuffs range | Anionic pre-dispersed dyes with excellent fastness, levelness and outstanding combinability to ensure always the desired pastel shade. |
Inoderme® | Metal content dyestuffs range with special properties | Homogeneous metal complexes Cu, Cr, Co dyestuffs with outstanding fastness and special dyeing behavior to produce brilliant shades. Inoderme® Range contains also all anionic dyestuffs Fe content. |
Melioderm® HF | Metal content dyestuffs range with outstanding fastness | Well balanced mix of anionic dyestuffs. Some contain metal complexes. |
Coralon® OT | Dispersing agent based of naphthalene sulphonic acids | Anionic dispersing agent to speed up penetration and distribution of retanning/vegetables and dyestuffs. Low formaldehyde free content. Moderate heat & light fastness and bleaching effect. |
Densotan® A | Dispersing Polymeric auxiliary free of emulsifiers | Special dispersing auxiliary increases general retanning distribution, increase levelness and defect coverage. |
Dermafix® P | Aliphatic polyamine derivative - Strong cationic product for fixation | Free of formaldehyde auxiliary suitable for increase wet fastness mainly perspiration when is applied in fresh bath alone at the end of process. High Heat resistance. Due to its strong cationic character, fatliquors and unfixed dyestuff can precipitate on leather surface if intermediate washing was not made properly. |
Dermafix® S | Polyamine based with strong cationic character | To improve shade depth on top dyeing in leathers heavily retanned with vegetables and synthetic chemicals. Few amount is needed to produce deep blacks & brown shades. When it is applied at the end of process improves bath exhaustion. |
Dermagen® DMA | Quaternary ammonium compound for top dyeing weakly cationic | Auxiliary for top dyeing with high capacity to reduce differences between different dyestuff showing very even shades and defect coverage for full grain leathers when is applied in fresh bath before top dyeing. It is also recommended for wetting back crust with high anionicity. |
Dermagen® GP | Ethoxilated alkyl amines with amphoteric character | Increases affinity between different dyestuffs showed dyeing's with outstanding levelness and dye penetration. Low bleaching effect. |
Dermafix® OK | Ethoxilated fatty amine derivative with cationic character | "Auxiliary for top dyeing with high capacity to reduce differences between different dyestuff showing very even shades and defect coverage for full grain leathers when is applied in fresh bath before top dyeing. It is also recommended for wetting back crust with high anionicity. Has a slight fatliquoring effect." |
Dermafix® PF | Polymer for dyestuffs - Strong cationic product for fixation | Free of formaldehyde auxiliary suitable for increase wet fastness mainly perspiration when is applied in fresh bath alone at the end of process. High Heat resistance. Due to its strong cationic character, fatliquors and unfixed dyestuff can precipitate on leather surface if intermediate washing was not made properly. |
Coralon® M | Dispersing agent based of naphthalene sulphonic acids | Anionic dispersing agent to speed up penetration and distribution of retanning/vegetables and dyestuffs. Low formaldehyde free content. Moderate heat & light fastness. |
Coralon® NL liq | Salts of organic acids and polyols | By its special chemistry when is used as auxiliary in dyeing, levelness and dye distribution is noticeably improved providing brilliant shades and reducing the white line under grain. |
| Coralon® NNOL | Dispersing agent based of naphthalene sulphonic acids suitable for pastel shades | Anionic dispersing agent to speed up penetration and distribution of retanning/vegetables and dyestuffs. Low formaldehyde free content. Excellent heat & light fastness and strong bleaching effect to produce pastel shades. |
