SD 6085 CROSS CONNECTOR (COLD FIXATOR) — a highly effective cold fixator (crosslinking agent) designed for addition to inks in emulsion (screen) printing on textiles. The product works particularly well with water-based and pigment ink systems, providing excellent adhesion even at reduced fixation temperatures. This is especially important for heat-sensitive fabrics such as polyester and synthetic blends.

When SD 6085 is added to the ink, a chemical cross-linking process occurs that significantly enhances the adhesion of the ink to the fabric fibers. This allows achieving outstanding durability even when fixation is carried out at lower temperatures, protecting sensitive materials from heat damage.

Key Benefits: significant increase in wash fastness (print remains bright after multiple wash cycles), increased abrasion resistance (no fading upon contact), improved adhesion to polyester and difficult synthetic fabrics, increased crack resistance (print elasticity), low-temperature fixation capability (protects heat-sensitive materials).

Recommended dosage — 2–3% by weight of the ink. Important: After mixing, the working mixture remains usable for 6–12 hours (pot life), after which a fresh batch should be prepared. The product is essential for manufacturing garments from blended fabrics and when working with temperature-sensitive materials.
