In textile wet processing, hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) remaining in the bath or on the fabric after bleaching (scouring) poses a significant risk to the subsequent dyeing stage. CRN PRELIZE HPE is a high-potency catalase enzyme specifically engineered to completely neutralize these residues. Unlike traditional chemical reducing agents, it eliminates peroxide contamination via a biochemical pathway, ensuring optimal dyeing quality without compromise.
Residual hydrogen peroxide can oxidize reactive dyestuffs, leading to shade deviations, poor fastness, and uneven dyeing results (barré). CRN PRELIZE HPE harnesses the natural power of the catalase enzyme to rapidly decompose peroxide molecules into water and oxygen within seconds:
This reaction is strictly specific, meaning it does not interfere with other chemicals in the bath or the fiber itself. By ensuring a "peroxide-free" environment before dyeing, it maximizes "Right First Time" (RFT) performance and color consistency.
Traditional methods for removing peroxide involve multiple rinsing cycles, leading to excessive water consumption and prolonged process times. Implementing CRN PRELIZE HPE minimizes the need for excessive rinsing, resulting in substantial water and energy savings. Its stable formulation allows for the dyeing process to commence shortly after enzymatic treatment in the same bath, significantly boosting overall machine productivity.
Complete Peroxide Elimination: Neutralizes hydrogen peroxide entirely, even at very low dosages.
Fiber-Safe Action: Does not affect tensile strength and preserves the natural hand-feel of the fabric.
Process Reliability: Minimally affected by pH fluctuations compared to chemical reducers, eliminating the risk of dyeing defects.
Sustainability: Fully biodegradable; reduces the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and salt load in wastewater treatment facilities.
