Features

 

 

Optical Brightener KSN

1. being highly whiteness with small usage.
2. multipurpose used for whitening of polyester fiber and plastic.
3. having a good compatibility and good fastness to light and sublimation. Can be used for high temperature process.

4. Although Optical Brightener KSN and Optical Brightener  OB-1 share a similar chemical structure, but optical brightener KSN outperforms OB-1 in whitening effect and compatibility for polyester fibers and plastic products - capabilities that OB-1 cannot match

 

Applications

 

 

Optical Brightener KSN mainly be used in whitening of polyester, polyamide, polyacrylonitrile fiber, the plastic film and all plastic pressing process. Can suitable for synthesizing high polymer including polymeric process.

 

 

Reference dosage

 

Optical Brightener KSN is a powder product. It must be thoroughly mixed with the material before use and can be added at any processing stage of the synthetic polymer.

 

Recommended Dosage

Application Type Recommended Dosage (vs. raw material weight) Reference (per ton of material)
Plastic/Polyester Pellets 0.01% - 0.05% 100g - 500g
Transparent Plastic Products 0.0005% - 0.002% 5g - 20g
Polyester Fibers 0.01% - 0.02% 100g - 200g

 

The specific dosage should be adjusted according to the whiteness requirement of the substrate and product characteristics. It is recommended to conduct small-scale trials to determine the optimal dosage.

 

Package & Storage

 

10kg or 25kg/ fiber drums. It can be packed in other forms according to user's requirements.

Shelf life: not more than 24 months in the room temperature.

Comparison Positioning with Other Optical Brighteners

 

 

Comparison Item KSN FP-127 OB KCB
Melting Point ≥295℃ 219-221℃ 198-203℃ 210-212℃
Weather Resistance Excellent (Level 8) Moderate Good Excellent
Core Application Engineering plastics, polyester fibers Flexible PVC products Polyolefins, coatings EVA foam, outdoor use
Applicable Temperature Highest (engineering plastics) Moderate Moderate Moderate
Typical Scenario High-temperature processing, long-term outdoor use Indoor PVC products General use, coatings High-end foam

One-sentence summary: Optical Brightener KSN is the first choice for scenarios with the highest requirements for high-temperature resistance and weather resistance, making it particularly suitable for high-temperature processing of engineering plastics (PET, PC, ABS, etc.) and polyester fibers, as well as products requiring long-term outdoor use.
