Amylases are used to remove starch-based sizing from the fabric. Amylase is a hydrolytic enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of starch to short-chain dextrin and oligosaccharide and makes it easy to remove from the fabric by rinsing. Desizing enzymes can be used in cotton, viscose fiber, blended fabric, and yarn-dyed poplin. Amylase enzymes can be used over a wide pH and temperature range. The application can be carried by continuous & discontinuous process.

BIO BLEACHING

Laccases are used for denim bleaching as an alternative to the hazardous and non-environmentally friendly chemical process. Laccase enzymes help in denim bleaching/ decolorization by faster conversion of indigo into isatin, which further decomposes to anthranilic acid as a final reaction product. The use of the laccase enzyme has several advantages over conventional denim bleaching as it is suitable for use in light-ounce fabric, prevents strength loss, no damage to lycra prevents yellowing on storage, lesser COD & BOD & reduces water usage.

BIO POLISHING/FADING

Bio-polishing is a finishing process that enhances fabric quality by decreasing the pilling tendency and fuzziness of (cellulose) knitted & woven fabric/ garment. It can be carried out before, during, or after the dyeing process. Bio polishing can be achieved by using acid or neutral cellulase enzymes that work at room temperature or up to 55⁰C. Cellulase enzymes hydrolyze the microfibrils protruding from the fabric surface, weaken and break them easily off the main fiber, thereby yielding a fiber surface smoother than it was before.Cellulose has replaced the traditional stone washing process where the blue denim was faded by the abrasive action of pumice stones on the garment surface. Cellulase fading effect is obtained by removal of the physically attached indigo dye on the surface of the fibers by the cooperative action of enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose and mechanical agitation of the garment. Bio-fading improves the softness, luster, drape, texture, softness, and appearance of the fabric. Neutral or acid Cellulase is selected for use based on the intensity of the fading required on the denim.

Peroxide Killer Enzyme

Catalase is used in the textile industry in the bleach clean up process, removing hydrogen peroxide from fabrics to make sure the material is peroxide-free. Which catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen.
