Dupont Devorant

Dupont Devorant works on the principle of selectively destroying textile fibres. It destroys or burns out viscose and plant fibres (cotton, linen, etc.), while others remain intact, such as polyester and animal fibres (silk, wool, etc.). On mixed-fibre fabrics, a wide array of artistic effects can be achieved, by highlighting the contrast between the destroyed and the intact fibres. On sigle-fibre fabrics such as 100 % cotton and 100 % viscose, the Devorant enables some of the fabric to be burnt out depending on how the product is applied. In this way lace or buttonhole effects can be achieved. art. no.: bottling 48-280 100 ml 48-281 1000 ml

Dupont AlterEgo

AlterEgo - Double Dyeing The technique of double-dyeing is based on the chemical difference of two dye colors, each suitable for a particular fibre. Alter Ego is used on mixed fabrics like silk/viscose, silk/linen, silk/hemp, etc. to achieve bicolored effects. Alter Ego is particularly suitable for devore (burn-out) fabrics, especially velvet and satin where the design in relief is made of viscose and the base fabric is made of silk. Dyeing with Alter Ego is done in one pot.
