Information:
Britemax CBS is an optical whitener used in cleaning products, paper and textiles. Optical brighteners are fluorescent substances that absorb light with colors such as brown and gray and emit blue and yellow light. In this way, even smeared surfaces appear brighter.
Britemax CBS is a stronger optical whitener compared to Britemax AMS and Britemax DMS-X .
Synonyms: Disodium 2,2 '- ([1,1'-biphenyl] -4,4'-di-di-divinylene) bis (benzenesulfonate), C 28 H 20 O 6 S 2 .2Na
Technical:
Granulated Britemax CBS has an extinction coefficient of around 1140. Solved Britemax CBS-CL has an extinction coefficient of around 125. This is the ratio between incoming and emitted light.

Short summary of the preceding: optical brighteners (fluorescents) are fluorescent molecules which absorb wavelengths of darker colours and remit lighter colours. This way colours turn brighter and vague stains are hushed up. The application in detergents are known and described in our earlier newsletters. Apart from fabric detergents there are yet other interesting applications for optical brighteners that are possibly inspiring for you as well.

Optical brighteners: all is not white that glitters
Optical whiteners, Britemax, are fluorescents or molecules that absorb wavelengths of dark colors and UV-light. The result is that an electron in the fluorescent molecule is excited to a higher energy level. When that electron fallsback, it sends out a photon; aka energy in the form of light. The wavelength of this emitted light is different from the absorbed light. At any given moment there are many electrons being excited and many falling back; the light emission is continuous. Every fluorescent emits a different color.
