Trang 1Eco Friendly Crease Recovery Finishing By Cyclodextrins
In textile wet processing industry large numbers of chemicals are involved for various purposes Many of these chemicals are noxious and do not effortlessly humiliate and accordingly affects the atmosphere The textile industry continues to look for eco-friendly substitutes for toxic chemicals; to use the Bio-degradable auxiliaries and to minimize the loss of inherent characteristics of the fibre (and or Process)
Resin or wrinkle free finishing is widely used in the textile industry
to impart wrinkle-resistance to cotton fabrics and garments But considerable loss in strength and abrasion resistance of the resin finished fabrics has been
a major concern for the industry The treatment of cellulose to improve crease recovery and provide highly durable press ratings is based on cross-linking of cellulose molecules through the Resin finishing agent Cyclodextrins are non-reducing cyclic glucose oligosaccharides resulting from the cyclomaltodextrin glucanotransferase catalysed degradation of starch Chitosan (CTS) also an important Polysaccharide and commercially available biopolymer, have many chemical attributes to make it an interesting aspirant for these applications Chitosan is the name given to the polymers that are obtained by the deacetylation of chitin, which is the second most abundant polysaccharide found on earth next to cellulose These both chemicals are derived from natural sources and these are eco friendly chemicals which will not harm the environment
Aim of this work has facilitated the use of this polysaccharide in Resin finishing to improve the various important properties which were lost by the Resin finishing and to optimize the new type of Resin finishing with polysaccharides
