explained

 Demands on pretreated cellulosic fabric
The fabric should not contain any disturbing
residual substances
 pH neutral - slightly acid

 no heavy metal and low alkaline earth metal content
 good absorbency
 low content of residual surface active agents
 no residual peroxide !

Enzymatic destruction of peroxide
 Enzymes are bio-catalysts:
• Catalysts are chemical substances which accelerate reactions
without being used up.
• Enzymes are formed in the living organism. This natural production is
also used in a synthesis way, the enzymes are produced with fungi or
bacteria cultures on large scale.
• Advantage: completely biodegradable!
• Because of their cellular structure
the enzymes have a clear defined surface. +
• An enzyme has on the surface an enzyme substrate enzyme-substrate-complexe
active centre with an equal complementary centre.

• the enzymes work like a key-lock princip

Efficiency of catalases
Catalases are enzymes which accelerate the decomposing reaction
from hydrogen peroxide to inactive oxygen and water.

The catalase accelerates the reaction but is not used up and will
be continuously efficient.
The catalase does not have any influence on the dyestuff, therefore it can
be dyed directly without intermediate rinsing process.

Remaining peroxide control, e.g. with Merck® test stripes
Dyeing in the same bath

Detection and semiquantitative determination of peroxides
in aqueous solutions with test strips
Analytical test strips from Merck® contain peroxidase.
Peroxidase transfers oxygen from the peroxide to an organic redox
indicator, which is then converted to a blue-coloured oxidation
product.
Instructions for use:
Immerse the reaction zone in the solution for 1 sec.

Shake off excess liquid from the strip.
Compare with the colour scale (0.5-25 mg/l H 2O2)after
15 sec.
The appearance of any blue coloration within 3 min

can be interpreted as a positiv reaction.

Determination of residual peroxide on bleached fabric
A drop of TiCl4 reagent is put on the bleached fabric.

The colour is compared with a scale.

 Demand on dyeing levelness
Levelling agent for reactive dyes ?

 Levelling agents in the classical meaning are
not available for reactive dyeings.
 Reason for this is the reaction of the reactive
dye with the cellulosic fiber.
 Migration of already fixed dye molecules is not
possible ! This would be a chemical miracle.
How does CHT solve this problem ?

improves the dye diffusion into the fiber

 avoids precipitations of all kinds of impurities
