How to Use
DOWSIL™ 1349 Emulsion can be used as received or in a diluted form. For use as
release/lubricant DOWSIL™ 1349 Emulsion may be applied as received in a diluted form by
the conventional methods of spraying, dipping, wiping or brushing. Low hardness water
should be used for dilution. A typical dilution is DOWSIL™ 1349 Emulsion (1 part w/w) to
water (20 parts w/w) but the user should determine the best concentration and application
method on a small scale before production. For use as fabric finish agent DOWSIL™ 1349
Emulsion can be applied to fabric by padding. The amount of emulsion required will depend
on the fabric constructions and type of fabric used (natural, synthetic). Generally, between
6 g/1 and 25 g/1 bath concentration is recommended.
