Product Category: CellulaseBIOTOUCH FLX 1 is a cellulase preparation produced using a genetically modified strain of a non-pathogenic fungi. The preparation is efficient in the modification of cellulosic material and is especially a suitable component for liquid detergent formulations.
Properties
BIOTOUCH FLX 1 is a clear, light coloured aqueous liquid with a density of approximately 1.0 – 1.1 g/ml. BIOTOUCH FLX 1 contains a declared minimum activity of 38 000 NCU/g. The cellulase activity is determined on CMC substrate at 50°C and pH 7.0. Detailed description of the method (B-033) is available on request.
Application
BIOTOUCH FLX 1 is a liquid cellulase enzyme product specifically developed for improving the cleaning effect of liquid detergents. BIOTOUCH FLX 1 keeps garments looking attractive for longer by enhancing whiteness while being stable in the presence of potentially degrading substances, e.g. various classes of surfactants and proteases, and being exceptionally stable even at high storage temperatures. These characteristics are critical for flexibility in formulating detergents. The product is efficient in:
- anti-greying
- anti-repositioning
- the removal of pigment dirt
The preferred process conditions for the product are:
- pH of washing water: 6 – 10
- temperature: 30 – 70°C (86 – 158°F)
- enzyme dosage: 0.1 – 0.5 % of the detergent’s weight
The recommended dosage will vary according to detergent formulations and washing conditions, and the desired level of performance should be based on the experimental results.
