ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a new cellulase composition for treating and finishing cellulose-containing textiles. The improved properties of the cellulase composition are based on an elevated content of EGII endoglucanase type component in an otherwise complete cellulase composition. When the composition with elevated EGII contents is used improved color properties, increased lightness, improved visual appearance and reduced pilling tendencies are achieved. The strength properties of the textile materials are essentially unchanged as compared to previously used cellulase compositions.
