A Helping Hand for the TEXTILE INDUSTRY - C&EN Global Enterprise

Through constant research and development, the textile indus­ try has done much to provide cheaper, more efficient products. Typical of this progress are the advancements made in the dye­ ing of textiles. Often, Victor* formic acid is used as an acidulent in the dye bath. This medi­ um-strength acid produces colors that are both level and fast, and complete exhaustion of the dye assures economy. Because of the volatility of formic acid, danger of tendering the fabric is elimi­ nated. I n addition t o formic acid, many other Victor chemi­ cals serve as a helping hand in the textile industry·
