This study used water to extract substances from hulls of soap nut fruits (Sapindus Emarginatus) and licorice root (Glycyrrhizaglabra L.) found in Thailand to remove waxes in cotton scouring process. CMC value from soap nut fruits were found to be 6 mg/ml with surface tension of 54.67 mN/m and can be used as wetting agent when the temperature is lower than 70 °C. CMC value from licorice root was 10 mg/ml with surface tension of 51.50 mN/m and can be used as wetting agent at temperature higher than 95°C. The results exhibited that both substances can be used to remove waxes in cotton scouring process. At the 40% of substance powder by fabric weight, the cotton fabric absorbed water in 5 seconds. |
