Specification
Fluorescent Whitening Agent ER-III (also known as C.I. Fluorescent Brightener 199:2, FBA 199:2) is a stilbene-type fluorescent whitening agent, appearing as a bright yellow crystalline powder. This product is insoluble in water but has good dispersibility in organic media. ER-III belongs to the same ER series as ER-I and ER-II, but features rapid adsorption and a low color-developing temperature, making it particularly suitable for the whitening treatment of polyester and its blended fabrics.

Features
A good whitening agent for polyester, ethylic acid,nylon,especially for pastic.lt could improve thermal stability when mix with ER-I,ER-II.
⚡ Fast Adsorption Rate
Compared to ER-I, ER-III has a faster adsorption rate, enabling it to achieve the desired whitening effect in a shorter time, thereby improving production efficiency.
🌡️ Low Color-Developing Temperature
It features a lower color-developing temperature, allowing full color development under relatively low processing temperatures. This reduces energy consumption while minimizing thermal damage to the substrate.
🔥 Good Heat Resistance and Light Stability
It exhibits excellent high-temperature resistance and light stability, making it suitable for a variety of processing conditions.
Applications
Optical Brightener ER-III is suitable for whitening and brightening of polyester fiber melt spinning.Applied to the whitening process of Dacron, acetic fiber, polyamide fiber, blends of terylene-cotton.
Add 0.02-0.08%(compare with polyester) in polyester fiber, or adjust it according to the whiteness requiryment, or add dulling agent, blue violet dyes. The dosage 10-60% of mixture will be best if need to mix with ER-I,ER-II.
Combined Use with ER-I/ER-II
Mixing Ratio: It is recommended that ER-III accounts for 10-60% ofthe mixture.
Effect: Can improve thermal stability.
💡 Tip: The specific dosage should be adjusted according to the whiteness requirements of the final product and actual process conditions. It is recommended to conduct small-scale trials first.
