Application Of Singeing And Bio Polishing (Enzyme) On Different Type Of Knit Fabric

Application Of Singeing And Bio Polishing (Enzyme) on Knit Fabric depends on the behavior of fiber and fabric. We use singeing and bio polishing(enzyme) to clean the fabric surface. The basic is that enzymes can damage the knit fabric but singing can not. So that we use singeing on that type of fabric which can be damaged by bio polishing/enzyme.

As an example, viscose fiber or fabric strength is lower. So viscose can lose its strength on enzymatic treatment.

Some loose-knit fabrics structure are damaged during enzymatic treatment because their strength is lower than ordinary fabric.

But without-bio polishing, it is not possible to make the fabric surface clean. To solve this problem we need singing which is the treatment of woven fabric.

Application chart of biopolishing (Enzyme) and singing on different Knit fabrics:

F/ TYPE	COMPOSITION	SPECIALTY	ENZYME AND SINGING	WHY NEED
ALL	ALL	DIGITAL AOP	SINGEING + ENZYME( IF NEED)	Digital all-over printing needs surface clean
ALL	ALL	NEBUDYE	SINGEING + NO ENZYME	Nebu dye requirement
BABY TERRY	CTN+POLY		SINGEING TERRY PART+NO ENZYME	The back part (Terry part) of the fabric will be the face side of the body which is why it needs a clean surface
ALL	CTN+TENCEL 50/50		SINGEING+ENZYME	For cotton, Tencel blend fabric
L/ FLEECE	220- 240 GSM		SINGEING+LIGHT ENZYME	For lower gsm fabric
S/J, SLUB S/J	120-145 GSM		SINGEING+NO ENZYME	For lower gsm fabric where enzymes can damage the fabric
MICRO SLUB/J			SINGEING+NO ENZYME	The enzyme can damage the fabric
WAFFLE	290 GSM		SINGEING + NO ENZYME	The enzyme can damage the fabric
WAFFLE	220 GSM		SINGEING + NO ENZYME	The enzyme can damage the fabric
LONG SLUB/J			SINGEING+ LT ENZYME	The higher enzymes can damage the fabric
ALL	120-180 GSM	FAKE/ MERCERIZED	SINGEING+ENZYME	To make the fabric cleaner which can produce a mercerized look
ALL	>200 GSM	FAKE/ MERCERIZED	NO SINGEING+ENZYME	To make the fabric cleaner which can produce a mercerized look
ALL	CTN+RECYCLE CTN	80+20	SINGEING+NO ENZYME	The enzyme can damage the recycled cotton
BABY TERRY	100% COTTON		SINGEING  BOTH PARTS	The enzyme can damage the fabric
DESIGN MESH	CVC 60/41		SINGEING	The enzyme can damage the fabric
CORE S/J, TERRY	ALL		SINGEING+ENZYME	The higher enzyme can damage the fabric
AMBILIGHT SLUB	ALL		SINGEING+NO ENZYME	The enzyme can damage the fabric
L/S/J	VISCOSE	95+5	SINGEING+ HEAT SET+NO ENZYME	The enzyme can damage the fabric
S/J	VISCOSE		SINGEING	The enzyme can damage the fabric
2X2 LY RIB	CTN/MODAL		SINGEING+ENZYME	Cotton and modal blend need more enzymes to clean the surface
	CTN/MODAL	50+50	SINGEING+ENZYME	Cotton and modal blend need more enzymes to clean the surface
SLUB/J	CTN/ RECYCLE CCTN	80+20	SINGEING + NO ENZYME	The enzyme can damage the recycled cotton

What is Bio-polishing?

Bio-polishing is a textile finishing process that uses enzymes to remove surface fibers from fabrics, resulting in a smoother and more lustrous appearance. It is a form of biotechnology applied to textiles to improve their physical properties and enhance their quality.

During the bio-polishing process, enzymes are applied to the fabric to break down and remove protruding fibers from the surface, resulting in a smoother texture and improved handle. This process can be used on a variety of fabrics, including cotton, linen, and rayon, and is commonly used in the production of high-quality shirts, sheets, and other fine textiles.

Bio-polishing has several benefits, including improving the appearance and feel of fabrics, increasing their durability, and reducing pilling and fuzziness. It is also a more eco-friendly alternative to traditional textile finishing processes, as it requires less water and energy and produces fewer harmful byproducts.

Final Word:

Application of singeing and Bio polishing depends on the behavior of fiber and fabric characteristics. The fabric which can be damaged with enzyme, we have to use singeing for that type of fabrics.
