The textile industry relies heavily on specialized chemicals and enzymes to achieve desired fabric properties. Among these, cellulases are vital for processes like bio-polishing, denim washing, and general fabric finishing. However, not all cellulases are created equal. Understanding the different types and their specific applications is crucial for manufacturers. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., as a prominent supplier of textile enzymes in China, aims to guide you in making the optimal choice.

Understanding Cellulase Types

Cellulases are broadly categorized based on their optimal pH range: neutral and acid cellulases. Each type offers distinct advantages:

  • Neutral Cellulase Enzymes: Our featured neutral cellulase (CAS 9012-54-8) operates best in a near-neutral pH environment (typically pH 6.0-7.0) and moderate temperatures (45-55°C). They are excellent for bio-polishing cotton and cellulosic blends, providing superb fuzz removal, anti-pilling effects, and improved fabric smoothness without significant strength loss. They are also effective for certain denim finishing applications requiring less aggressive action.
  • Acid Cellulase Enzymes: These enzymes function optimally in acidic conditions (pH 4.5-6.0). They are often preferred for denim washing to achieve strong abrasion and stone-wash effects, as well as for certain bio-polishing applications where a more aggressive action is desired. However, they can sometimes lead to higher strength loss if not carefully controlled.

Key Considerations When Purchasing Cellulase:

When looking to buy cellulase enzyme, consider the following factors:

  • Target Application: Are you aiming for delicate bio-polishing or robust denim washing? This will dictate whether a neutral or acid cellulase is more suitable.
  • Fabric Type: Cotton, linen, viscose, and blends may react differently to various enzyme types.
  • Process Parameters: Ensure the enzyme’s optimal pH and temperature range align with your existing machinery and process capabilities.
  • Concentration and Activity: Higher concentration and activity levels generally mean lower dosage rates and better cost-effectiveness.
  • Supplier Reliability: Partnering with a reputable manufacturer like NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. ensures consistent quality, stable supply, and expert technical support.
