RUCO®-SHIELD RAY
Special effects
- Standard 100 by OEKO-TEX® (Suitable for class I-IV)
- ZDHC MRSL compliant
- Actual application for ZDHC Chemical Gateway: Level 3
- Durable UV protective finish of textiles for protecting the skin from harmful UV rays
- Especially suitable for cellulosic fibres
- Mineral titanium dioxide absorbs and reflects incident UV rays and, thus, significantly reduces the portion of transmitted rays
- Depending on the fabric construction, the requirements of common standards (e.g. AS/NZS 4399, EN 13758, AATCC 183) can be fulfilled
- The best results are obtained on unfinished cotton
- Does not impair the textile handle
Chemical basis:
Inorganic pigments in a polysiloxane matrix
Ionic character:
Cationic
