Textiles Industry
Textile Enzymes are being applied in almost every step of textile wet processing for desizing, scouring, bleaching and finishing of textile fabrics. Textile processing has benefited from the application of enzymes to markedly reduce environmental impact and improved product quality. The principal enzymes applied in the Textile industry are Hydrolases and Oxidoreductases. Textile Enzymes are employed in the processes of desizing by treatment with Alpha Amylase Enzymes where starch is degraded in dextrins and removed from the fabric. Cotton fibres based on cellulose can be improved by an enzymatic treatment known as Biopolishing. Biopolishing Enzyme treatment prevents pilling. This treatment gives the fabric a smoother and glossier appearance. The treatment is used to remove fuzz – the tiny strands of fibre that protrude from the surface of yarn. In denim finishing a small dose of Textile Enzyme can replace several kilograms of stones. Bioscouring is the process of purifying cotton fabrics from impurities such as wax, pectins, hemicelluloses, and mineral salts using textile enzymes. Peroxide Killing Enzymes provide for an eco-friendly way of removing the Hydrogen Peroxide content of the Textile fabric post bleaching of Textile products.
1. SRITEX-DESIZE LT :-
- Low temperature alpha- amylase preparation
- It used in textile industry for de-sizing process
- is used for desizing of fabric like cotton and its blends that has been sized with starch and starch size mixtures.
- It hydrolyzes starch into soluble dextrin and oligosaccharides that can be rapidly washed out with fabric. It gives excellent desizing effect yielding softer handle, improved absorbency & dye penetration.
2. SRITEX-DESIZE HT :-
- SRITEX-DESIZE HT is a concentrated thermostable alpha-amylase enzyme preparation
- it is used for desizing of fabric like cotton and its blends that has been sized with starch and starch size mixtures.
- The product is designed to be formulated into products that fill the need of textile processors.
- No damage to the fiber
- Wide variety of application processes
- Eco-friendly & Biodegradable
3. SRITEX BIOSCOUR :-
- SRITEX BIOSCOUR is a Bioscouring Enzyme produced from a selected strain of fungal species. It is a ready to use formulation manufactured to specifications that fill the needs of Fabric Processors.
- SRITEX BIOSCOUR is used for bio-scouring of cellulosic fabrics under alkaline conditions. It hydrolyzes pectin and associated hemicellulose matter from the fabrics .
- Specific action on Pectin matter.
- Improves softness and appearance of fabric.
- Saves energy and water requirements.
- Eco-friendly & Biodegradable.
