ENZYMATIC DEGUMMING AGENT AND METHOD OF DEGUMMING FABRIC USING THE SAME

摘要

PURPOSE: Provided is a method of degumming a fabric using an enzymatic degumming agent which involves mild pH and temperature with the heightened work environment stability, reduced drainage, and low power consumption. The degummed fabric exhibits excellent tactility, and reasonable fiber strength. CONSTITUTION: The fabric degumming agent comprises protopectinase. The amount of the protopectinase with respect to the fabric is 1.2-1.5wt.%. The fabric degumming agent further comprises one or more nonionic surfactants, mono potassium phosphate, and di potassium phosphate, the amount of which with respect to the fabric is 0.01-0.2wt.%, 0.18-0.38wt.% and 2-4wt.%, respectively.
