Fabritex

Fabritex is a highly modified & formulated starch product which provides adequate cohesion and good penetration, which results in better performance of the sized beam in the loom. The film provided by Fabritex is strong and flexible, thereby offering a high abrasion resistance of the sized yarn. This helps in smoother performance of the beam at the loom and ensures less end breaks. Fabritex gives good paste stability which ultimately provides uniform sizing.

Provides extremely high adhesion to all types of fibres.
Provides strong and flexible film.
Easy to de-size.
Has good stability.
Has an optimum viscosity which can be altered to the needs of the customer.
Is highly consistent.

Advantages

Binding

Fabritex has an excellent adhesion property. The high tackiness in Fabritex helps in better binding and improvement in weaving efficiency in high speed shuttle less looms. Fabritex has very good tackiness which helps in better binding and provide the necessary elastic warp thread protection.

Consistency

Fabritex is highly consistent, which in turn helps in uniform size pick-up. A 10% paste remains consistent on overnight storage and there is no gel formation or thinning of paste.

Film Formation

Fabritex has an excellent film forming property. The film formed by Fabritex is strong , thin and transparent and does not crack easily. This is turn helps in better pliability and reduction of loss in elongation.

Preparation of Sizing paste

With continuos and preferably vigorous stirring, the required quantity of Fabritex is sprinkled to cold water in the cooker/pre-mixer. The suspension is cooked at 130°C / 30 psi and retained for 10 mts, before transferring to storage.
