Ansizotex (Thin Boiling Starch)
Introduction:-
Ansizotex is a chemically treated starch suitable for sizing and finishing operations in textile industry.
Description:-
Ansizotex is a
partially hydrolysed starch product. Due to the reduction in the chain
length, the paste of Thin Boiling Starch is less viscous than that of
unmodified starch. It provides uniform & stable Viscosity. Over
wide range of concentration.
- Uniform size pick up.
- Good penetration.
- Required handle with higher add on.

Applications:-
Textile Industry & Other Industries:-
Ansizotex is
ideally suited for use in warp sizing and finishing of cotton and
polyester cotton blends. Uniform paste properties of Ansizotex ensure
substantially constant textile performance.
The warp threads
undergo friction and tension during weaving process. The efficiency of
weaving depends upon the resistance of warp yarn to abrasion. Ansizotex
provides protection to yarn to meet friction and tension by giving
uniform size penetration without developing abrasives points even on
oven drying.
Ansizotex being
more penetrating give a better anchorage to the starch film reducing
flakings or dropping. They give more weight to the fabric for the
same stiffening effect, and the surface layer being thinner and more
firmly fixed for an equal weight of starch, the size is neither visible
nor perceptible by the feel of the cloth. Thus, it gives both
solidity and fullness coupled with flexibility distinct from the
stiffness of the cloth filled with plain starch with or without clays.
In finishing thin
boiling starch like Ansizotex is used for a light finish when very
little filling is required to give body to the cloth. Being a low
viscosity product it is possible to control the stiffness of the cloth
by changes in concentration of Ansizotex.
It is also added to
native corn starch in different proportion to change the viscosity of
native starch to suit different application in textile industry with
respect to denier of yarn & also for further modification Ansizotex
is used during manufacturing of paper & food products and for
better performance.
Packaging:-
Ansizotex is available in 50 Kgs Plastics lined HDPE woven Bags.
