3. Mercerization is a finishing treatment of
cotton with a strong caustic alkaline
solution in order to improve
the luster, hard and other properties,
was names after its discoverer, John
Mercer, and has been in use for
sometime. It has been seeing an
increase in application recently.
4. To improve the lusture
To improve the strength
To improve the dye uptake and moisture regain
5. Native cellulose (Cellulose I) forms alkali cellulose I with concentrated sodium
hydroxide.On washing and neutralization cellulose II is formed.

7. Mercerization are two types:
Tension
Mercerization
• To increase luster of Cotton fibers
• To increase dye affinity and chemical
reactivity
Slack
Mercerization
• Not as lustrous as tension method
• To improve elongation and recovery
properties
