Description

Ultrazol ERN polyester oba is the chlorite bleach stable optical brightener with very good lightfastness and wash fastness properties. Ultrazol ERN polyester oba is the long established benzoxazole C.I. FBA 135 suitable for application by the pad thermasol method.

FBA 135 was developed by the Swiss chemical manufacturer CIBA Geigy and sold by them for many years as a branded product and found wide acceptance in textile dye houses. Their choice of benzoxazole chemistry made a very successful well fixed product with solubility in polyester at the application temperature.

We recommend the book Fluorescent Brightening Agents by Anliker and Mueller to anyone wishing to understand benzoxazole chemistry.
