We are engaged in producing and researching the sodium alginate (manutex) for dyeing and printing factory and food grade,mannitol (BP/USP/CPconform ), iodine ( BP/USP/CP conform ) in the over past 30 years !
Sodium Alginate is derived from seaweed and is the most desirable thickener for Procion MX dye. It is used to thicken dye for screen printing, painting, or to control spreading.
We have two kinds: High viscosity, low solids for cotton, and Low viscosity, high solids for silk. The silk one allows you to draw finer lines but requires you to use more.
You can use them interchangeably. Specify which one you prefer.
