Mercerization Process
Mercerization is an industrial process involving sodium hydroxide for cotton yarns or fabrics to increase the lustre and dyeability. Mercerisation of denim may be used for achieving ring dyeing, thus keeping the dye on the surface of the yarns or fabrics and to prevent dyes from fully penetrating the fibres .
Benefits of Mercerisation
To increase silk-like lustre.
To improve moisture regain/content.
To increase dye absorbency.
To improved strength and elongation properties.
To increase smoothness and hand feel is good.
To stabilized the strength of yarn or fabric.
Glazing Finish
Glazing is a textile finish that adds luster and smoothness to the surface of the fabric. Many glazed fabrics are plain-woven cotton. A specialized calender (set of metal rollers) called a friction calender, literally rubs the fabric lustrous. Glazed chintz and polished cotton are examples of glazed fabrics.
Starch, shellac or glue can be applied to the surface of a fabric to give a glazed or polished appearance. The surface is then ironed under pressure. The finish allows resistance to dirt penetration and is often applied to cotton fabrics making them stiff and shiny.
