Back to EFFICIENCY FINDER FOR TEXTILE INDUSTRY
1. OBJECTIVE
Mercerising is carried out in order to improve tensile strength, dimensional stability and lustre of fibre. Moreover an improvement in dye uptake is obtained (a reduction of 30 – 50% of dyestuff consumption can be achieved thanks to the increased level of exhaustion) (BAT for the Textiles Industry, July 2003).
2. FIELD OF APPLICATION
Mercerisation is applied on cotton, flax and blends (BAT for the Textiles Industry, July 2003).
3. DESCRIPTION OF TECHNIQUES, METHODS AND EQUIPMENT
For details see: “Cotton mercerisation” and “fibre blends mercerisation”
4. COMPETITIVE TECHNOLOGIES AND ENERGY SAVING POTENTIALS
For new technologies see: “Cotton mercerisation” and “fibre blends mercerisation”
