YDN8080 Series | Water-Based Modified Melamine Resins for Textile Finishing
The YDN8080 Series is a water-based modified melamine resin platform for textile finishing and related aqueous processing. YDN8080A, D, H, S and Y cover different solids and viscosity windows for application-driven selection.
The YDN8080 Series is designed for textile finishing and related aqueous processing systems. It includes YDN8080A, YDN8080D, YDN8080H, YDN8080S and YDN8080Y. Different grades cover different solids and viscosity ranges, allowing selection according to fabric type, finishing target, process method and formulation requirements.
Five core grades for different textile-finishing process windows.
The YDN8080 Series is primarily used in textile finishing and related aqueous processing systems. The five grades cover a range from lower viscosity to high-solids, high-viscosity options and can be selected according to fabric type, working-bath conditions and finishing process.
Grade selection should consider the finishing objective, working-bath solids and viscosity, catalyst, padding or coating process, and drying / curing conditions.
Selection logic
- YDN8080A: standard balanced grade
- YDN8080D: ultra-high-solids / high-viscosity grade
- YDN8080H: high-solids / high-viscosity grade
- YDN8080S: specific-application grade
- YDN8080Y: lower-viscosity grade
Use solids and viscosity to narrow the grade range.
The parameters below are provided for series selection. Detailed technical specifications should be confirmed against the applicable product documentation and actual supply information.
| Grade | Solids | pH | Viscosity @30°C |
|---|---|---|---|
| YDN8080AStandard balanced grade | ≥78% | 8–10 | 800–1500 mPa·s |
| YDN8080DUltra-high-solids / high-viscosity | ≥84% | 8–10 | 6000–9000 mPa·s |
| YDN8080HHigh-solids / high-viscosity | ≥82% | 8–10 | 3000–6000 mPa·s |
| YDN8080SSpecific-application grade | ≥78% | 8–10 | 800–1500 mPa·s |
| YDN8080YLower-viscosity grade | ≥75% | 8–10 | 300–600 mPa·s |
Technical note: The values above are provided for series selection. Detailed technical specifications should be confirmed against the applicable product documentation and actual supply information.
Match the grade to fabric type, process and target finishing performance.
For lower-viscosity requirements, YDN8080Y can be evaluated first. For conventional processing windows, start with YDN8080A or YDN8080S. Where higher solids or higher system viscosity is required, YDN8080H or YDN8080D can be evaluated.
YDN8080S is intended for evaluation under specific formulation and process conditions and can be selected according to fabric type, finishing objective, formulation system and processing conditions. Final grade selection should be validated in the actual formulation, padding / coating process and curing conditions.
If the existing grades do not fully cover the required process window, selected solids, viscosity, pH, dilution behavior, system stability and cure response can be evaluated for the specific application.
Useful customer inputs
- Fabric / substrate and current resin grade
- Working-bath solids, target viscosity and pH
- Padding, impregnation or coating process
- Drying / curing temperature and time
- Hand feel, wash durability, strength and formaldehyde requirements
Technical development: Application-specific specifications are subject to laboratory validation, technical feasibility and commercial production conditions.
Typical evaluation directions
General selection
For many textile-finishing projects, YDN8080A can be used as the initial evaluation grade. YDN8080Y, YDN8080H, YDN8080D or YDN8080S can then be compared according to working-bath viscosity, solids and processing behavior.
Difference from the YDN385 Series
For conventional textile finishing focused on easy-care, wrinkle resistance, stiffness/body and wash durability, start with the YDN8080 Series. For aqueous polymer crosslinking and coating water / chemical resistance, the YDN385 Series should also be considered.
