how it work
How Our Optical Brightening Agents (OBAs) Work
1. What are Optical Brightening Agents (OBAs), and how do they work?
Optical Brightening Agents (OBAs), also known as fluorescent whitening agents, are chemical compounds that absorb ultraviolet (UV) light and re-emit it as visible blue light. This effect masks yellowish tones, making materials appear brighter and whiter.
2. How do OBAs improve the whiteness of paper in the paper industry?
In the paper industry, OBAs are added during the wet-end or surface treatment stages. They enhance the perceived whiteness and brightness by counteracting the natural yellowish tint of pulp fibers.
3. What role do OBAs play in the textile industry?
In textiles, OBAs are applied during the finishing process to enhance the brightness of fabrics, especially white and pastel shades. They work by bonding to textile fibers and increasing light reflectance.
4. How do OBAs enhance cleaning performance in detergent formulations?
In detergents, OBAs are included to make washed fabrics appear cleaner and brighter by reducing dullness and yellowing. Although they don't contribute to actual cleaning, their visual effect improves consumer perception of cleanliness.
