Fabric Processing Solutions

After weaving the fabric is not able to absorb water or other auxiliaries to a sufficient degree due to the size. This means that uniform bleaching and dyeing can only be achieved after complete removal of the size from the fabric. To ensure that fabric is well prepared for dyeing and further processing, all size must be removed adequately and uniformly. Failure to remove the size completely can result in uneven dyeing, poor batch-to- batch shade reproducibility and problems during printing.

Enzymatic Desizing is the process of degrading starch size on the cotton fabrics . Desizing process can be divided into three stages like-Impregnation of fabric with the desizing liquor, Break-down of starch into water soluble dextrin and removal of the break-down products.

Hot Temp and Room Temp Desizing Enzymes enable complete removal of starch based size on the fabric.

Enzymatic Desizing offers the advantages such as- no damage to the fabrics , no usage of aggressive chemicals, improved wettability and having excellent biodegradability.

The natural fatty and waxy materials present in cotton fibre impart water repellency to the fabric and hinders the penetration of the dyestuff onto the fabric. These mineral matters, waxes, pectin have to be removed to make the fabric absorbent so can take up the dyestuff easily.

Powerful Wetting Agents and Emulsifying Agents are highly caustic stable and having ultra low foaming and excellent rewetting properties which are suitable for all kinds of machines like Jet ,Soft Flow etc. Our products have very high emulsification power for oils, grease and waxes present in the raw cotton. As these impurities are properly emulsified and removed during scouring, the prepared substrate has very good absorbency that is required for subsequent dyeing or printing. Because of good detergency properties products remove the dirt and physical impurities present on the substrate and keeps them in suspended form.

The natural colouring matter makes the cotton fabric look dirtier. Bleaching is the process to remove the natural colouring matter.

Quality of water influences textile processing at every stage. Even if the water is softened by softening unit, certain metallic impurities pass through and create problems during bleaching.

Excellent Chelating Agents are stable over wide PH range and Temp which remove iron and other heavy earth materials from the cotton fabrics which enables proper whiteness.

Stabilizers for peroxide bleaching having good chelating and dispersing properties.

Enzymatic Peroxide Neutralising Agents remove residual peroxide before Dyeing.

Quality of water influences textile processing at every stage . Even if the water is softened by softening unit, certain metallic impurities pass through and create problems like results in staining, change of shade and improper penetration of dye molecules.

Special products based on sugar esters for avoiding problems occurred during dyeing with reactive Turquoise Colour and other dyes.

Excellent dispersing cum levelling agents for dyeing having very good chelating properties for heavy earth metal ions.

Non formaldehyde base Dye fixing Agents are used to improve wash fastness properties of Reactive and Direct dyed cellulosic fabric to improve the wash and rubbing fastness. It is also used for after treating the reactive printed fabrics to protect the reactive dye to hydrolysis and thermo cracking.

Cotton and other natural and man-made cellulosic fibres can be improved by an enzymatic treatment called Bio-polishing.

Bio-polishing of the fabric removes protruding fibres and dead cotton from the woven and knitted fabrics hence reduce pilling and enhances softness and lustre of the fabric and gives shiny clear surface.

Hot Temp and Room Temp Acid and neutral enzymes are available for the Bio polishing of fabrics.

Neutral Bio polishing Enzyme give very low colour and strength loss compared to acid cellulose enzymes.

In knit fabric processing, after bleaching, removal of peroxide before dyeing with reactive dyes and bio polishing is essential for getting good quality fabrics. Normally these two steps are carried out separately with intermittent rinsing.

Cellcat Combi is a unique blend of different enzymes designed specially for knit fabric processing. It removes residual peroxide from the fabric and imparts good bio polishing effect. As the two steps are done in one bath, it saves 2 to 3 bath water, energy and time.

Various Soaping or Washing off products are for removing loosely held dye molecule after dyeing or printing . Our Soaping agents are stable over wide PH range and in hard water. They are effective in the presence of normal electrolyte concentration and hardness of water and also got good scouring property which is effective in removing the loosely held hydrolysed reactive dyes from the surface of the dyed fabric. Soaping Off Agents prevent the detached hydrolysed dye from redepositing on to the fabric even in the presence of salt. This quality of the product makes it possible to reduce the after soaping cycle.

Finishing is one of the essential processes of a processing mill where all bleached, dyed and printed material are done before they are put in the market

All natural fibres are associated with some oily, fatty or waxy substances in the raw stage. These substances give a soft feel to the fibre. However, on scouring and bleaching these waxy substances are removed and the material become harsh. It is therefore, necessary to apply some softening agent to the textile so as to impart softness, smoothness, fullness and flexibility.

Silicon based softeners are suitable for all types fabrics like cotton and synthetic blends which provide soft silky smooth finish and give very good inner and outer softness with minimum yellowing.
