Effects of biopolishing on the quality of cotton fabrics using acid and neutral cellulases

Abstract: The aims of the study were to analyze the treatment conditions for the use of acid and neutral cellulase enzymes and evaluate the changes in the various properties of the treated fabrics. In this study, biopolishing was carried out on bleached fabric using acid cellulase (Mega PK) and neutral cellulase (Mega L-1009D) considering three factors: concentration (0.5, 1, and 1.5 %), temperature (45, 55, and 65°C), and time (40, 50, and 60 min). Changes in the physical properties such as weight loss, strength loss, … Show more

“…However, biofinishing textile process conditions have not yet explored and the optimization of process parameters is underexplored in which one variable is varied while the others are kept constant; for example, the temperature is varied but pH is kept constant. ere is a timeconsuming method with several experiments to optimize parameters [17].…”

“…Though the effects of cellulase hydrolysis remain a surface phenomenon, changes in many physical aspects as well as me-Journal of Textile Science and Technology chanical properties of fabrics take place during denim bio-polishing. The major drawback associated with the use of cellulase is the loss of mass and the reduction in the fabric tensile strength [19] [20] [21]. Statistically, significant differences were observed between untreated and treated fabrics with regard to breaking strength.…”

“…Cellulase enzymes, specifically thermotolerants, play a crucial role in biopolishing by eliminating loosely bound and protruding cellulose fibers from the fabric surface. This process leads to smoother and softer fabrics with enhanced drapes, reduced pilling, and improved color brilliance [ 14 ]. Cellulase biopolishing is an alternative method that offers several advantages over chemical or mechanical treatments, since the former uses harmful substances and produces waste, while the latter inflicts damage and wear on the fabric, as it only affects the surface fibers.…”
