STATICOL®

Charge process detergent for the use in perchloroethylene solvent systems

As a professional drycleaner, you’re faced with all kinds of fabrics. Natural fabrics, synthetics, and blends. This variety means a detergent must have the multi-purpose role of dealing effectively with different fabric properties to minimize lint problems and static cling, and suspending loosened soils to prevent redeposition. STATICOL is formulated to provide exceptional cleaning results on all these fabrics, as well as deal with annoying static and lint. STATICOL is your best choice for use in perchloroethylene systems.

The Multi-Fabric Detergent™

Different fabrics have different properties and present various cleaning challenges:

Natural fabrics like silk, wool, cotton, and linen soak up moisture from the air during pre-spotting and from solvent during the cleaning process. One pound of linen can hold two ounces of moisture and a pound of wool can hold three ounces of moisture without feeling wet. As a result, natural fabrics tend to attract and hold more water-soluble soil.

Synthetic fabrics such as polyesters, nylons, and acrylics attract oily soil and, unlike natural fabrics, pick up very little moisture. Synthetics stay dry – so dry, that they can generate troublesome static electricity.

Blended fabrics are combinations of both natural and synthetic fibers creating fabrics with both sets of properties and cleaning challenges.

Unsurpassed Moisture Control
Small amounts of water are present and necessary in the drycleaning process to help remove water-soluble soils. Water can be added in the drycleaning process, and clothes can pick up moisture from the air. But perc and water do not mix. Before moisture can be put to work, it must first be solubilized into the drycleaning solvent. STATICOL effectively solubilizes the moisture, enabling it to gently and safely flush away water-soluble soil, along with the solvent-soluble soil to produce cleaner garments with less need for post-spotting or recleaning. This saves time at the spotting board and helps you return your customer‘s freshly cleaned clothes quickly and efficiently.

Prevents Redeposition
With its excellent soil suspending properties, STATICOL prevents loosened soils from re-depositing. Your customer’s clothes will be cleaner and brighter.

Minimizes Lint and Static Cling
Because of STATICOL’s outstanding static control properties, lint problems and static cling are minimized during the cleaning process and even after a garment has left your plant. This reduces handling in plant because there’s less need for manual lint removal. And your customers will love how their garments resist clinging when worn.

For Use in Perchloroethylene
Staticol can be used with or without automatic moisture controls, and in any perchloroethylene drycleaning system.

Greater Detergency and Economy
Staticol is concentrated, giving you more cleaning power for your money.
