Mercerizing is the treatment of cotton fabric with concentrated caustic soda under fabric tension. The objective is to achieve a high degree of mercerization thereby improving:
- Luster
- Dye uptake
- Tensile Strength
- Dimensional stability
Mercerizing is influenced by:
- Temperature : 60ºC
- Time : 40 – 50 Sec
- Fabric Tension : to avoid width wise shrinkage
- Concentrated of Caustic Soda : 260 – 300g/ L 48 - 52º Twaddle 28 - 30º Be
High entry device with proper tension and crease free passage of fabric feed to intensive impregnating zone is followed by the reaction zone.
Highly effective stabilizing compartment with chainless guidance. The final section comprises a highly efficiency washing and neutralizing zone.
Simple Advantages:
- Tailored to customer requirement
- High quality material solidly engineered
- Fabric guiding system controlled and synchronized
- Consequent counter flow and circulation
- Effective washing results in the washing compartment
Optional:
- PH Valve Regulation
- With PLC Control
- Caustic lye concentrated with sensor
- A.C Inverter drive for the complete range
- Automatic level controller in the tank.
