FINOZYME AX is a specially designed eco-friendly liquid Acid Cellulase Enzyme (Carbohydrase Enzyme) of Trichoderma sp. produced in a state-of-the-art fermentation facility |
|
FINOZYME AX is specially designed for application in superior BioFinishing Process and Denim washing of all cellulosic fabrics both woven and knits. |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
: |
Amber coloured clear and viscous liquid. |
| |
|
: |
Mild fermentation odour |
| |
|
| |
4.5 – 4.9 |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
: |
More effectively removes fuzz and cotton pill balls from fabric/ garment compared to most other acid cellulases. The cutting effect is very obvious. |
| |
|
: |
Exhibits low colour bleeding properties when compared to regular acid cellulases. |
| |
|
: |
Significantly softens cellulosic fabric/ garment with reduced strength loss. |
| |
|
: |
Versatile looks and finish can be achieved by varying the dosage and process parameters. |
| |
|
: |
Yields permanent softness and luster to the fabric / garment and improves the general look |
|
|
|
FINOZYME AX is active at a broad range of pH (3.5 to 6.5) and temperature (45 to 65 deg.C).
|
| |
  |
|
|
|
FINOZYME AX hydrolyses the microfibrils of fabric/ garment thereby effectively removing fuzz/ pill ball and imparts a smoother and polished appearance to surface of fabric/ garment. |
| PARAMETERS |
OPERATIONAL RANGES |
| Temperature |
50 – 60 deg.C |
| PH |
4.5 – 5.0; best at 4.8 |
| Liquid to goods ratio |
| Fabric 8:1 to 15:1 |
| Garment 6:1 to 10:1 |
|
| FINOZYME AX |
0.5% - 3% on weight of garment |
| Time |
30 to 60 minutes |
| |
|
|
For drum washers try to maintain a low garment liquor ratio for best results. In fabric processing follow the minimum F/L ratio recommended by equipment manufacturer. Unlike many BioFinishing Process Cellulases FINOZYME AX can run at 60 deg.C, thereby offering an approximate of 25% saving in dosage or time. |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
FINOZYME AX effectively softens fabrics/ garments made up of cellulose and its blends imparting a silky soft permanent finish. FINOZYME AX can be applied on any wet processing step in the garment Finishing Process process. |
| |
|
|
Optional: FINOZYME AX can be applied after preparation/ bleaching, either as a separate process or in conjuction with garment Dyeing Process (more suitable with bifunctional reactive dyes). However, with FINOZYME AX bio-Finishing Process , fabrics/ garments may also be processed after Dyeing Process. |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| Using the above process parameters 0.5% -2% owg FINOZYME AX has been found effective in the removal of fuzz balls and fuzziness when run for 15 to 20 minutes. |
| |
|
|
|
Effective desizing is required for efficient denim washing. |
|
| Temperature |
50 – 55°C; best at 52°C |
| PH |
4.5 – 5.0; best at 4.8 |
| FINOZYME AX |
6.5 : 1 to 10:1 |

| |
|
|
FINOZYME AX can also be used with pumice stones. |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Follow-up enzyme process with a hot (60 – 70 deg.C) detergent wash. Can be optional if followed up by bleaching. |

Avoid direct steam injection into the enzyme bath, ionic charged chemicals and exposure to heavy metals. |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
FINOZYME AX can be inactivated by raising the temperature above 70 deg.C or pH above 8.0 or combination of the two. However if the very next step is detergent washing inactivation is not necessary. |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
FINOZYME AX has less than 10% activity loss after four months when stored at 30 deg.C out of direct sunlight and in the original, closed container.
