Orco Nylosol Leveler TWA™
Orco Nylosol Leveler TWA™ is designed primarily for the level dyeing of nylon piece goods with Orco Nylosol™ dyes. A distinguishing characteristic of Orco Nylosol Leveler TWA™ is the promotion of uniform dye transfer at or near the boil resulting in extremely good levelness. In addition to leveling, Orco Nylosol Leveler TWA™ also produces a retarding effect on the dyes which is essential for uniform and level dyeings.
