Fabrix Shield T10
Paper Machine Fabric Performance Enhancer
Description
Fabrix Shield T10 is a surface modifier for paper machine fabrics and rolls. The product absorbs onto the hydrophobic surface of paper machine fabrics and rolls, which then become more hydrophilic (water loving).
By changing the nature of the fabric, Fabrix Shield T10 provides several advantages. The first benefit is deposit control. Most substances that cause deposit issues on a machine fabric are hydrophobic, including “stickies” from recycled fiber, tissue mill converting broke, and coated broke. Wood pitch, synthetic sizes, and waxes are also hydrophobic soils. These materials are attracted to the hydrophobic surfaces of machine fabrics.
Secondly, Fabrix Shield T10 can improve the moisture handling of a press fabric. This can have benefits including faster new fabric break-in, more even sheet moisture profile, and improved fabric performance throughout its life. Fabrix Shield T10 can work in conjunction or as a replacement for press fabric cleaning chemistry.
Fabrix Shield T10 can also work in conjunction with high pressure traversing cleaning shower systems and can improve the performance of those systems. Any hydrophobic deposits that accumulate on a fabric will be less tightly held and more easily removed by the showering systems.
Fabrix Shield T10 is not a cationic barrier treatment. It does not build up on fabrics, reduce drainage, or require periodic stripping with caustic.
Application areas for Fabrix Shield T10 include forming wires, press fabrics, dryer fabrics, TAD fabrics, transfer belts, pulp washer or save-all screens, and synthetic roll surfaces.
