Abstract
The study tested the use of Viscobleach as a multi-scouring agent for pretreating cellulosic fabrics (cotton, viscose, and linen) instead of using traditional agents (caustic soda, soda ash, and hydrogen peroxide). The results showed an increase in whiteness and absorbency for viscose and linen fabrics pretreated with Viscobleach. The color strength (K/S) increased for all shades of cotton and for medium and dark shades of viscose and linen. The study also showed that the dye pick-up was higher and dye wastage lower with the Viscobleach pretreatment. The color fastness to wash and rubbing was rated 4-5 for all samples.
