3.Application Scope and Usage
HA-soft80 is widely used as a softener, gloss agent and water repellent in textiles, leather finishing, paper sizing, waterborne coatings, inks, liquid polishes for floors, furniture, automobiles and ceramics, as well as in fruit and vegetable coatings for freshness, metal release agents, and adhesives. Typical textile finishing dosage: 10–30 g/L, applied by pad–dry–cure (130–180 °C). In coatings and polishes it is simply stirred in at 1–5 % on total weight; in agriculture a 1–3 % dilution is sprayed or dipped.

HA-soft80 is packed in 50 kg non-returnable HDPE tight-head drums. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse away from direct sunlight, freezing and strong acids. Handle as a non-dangerous chemical; keep containers sealed and avoid contamination. When stored under recommended conditions the product retains full performance for two years from the date of manufacture.
