Applications
Cellulase hydrolyzes cellulose and related plant cell wall structures to improve process efficiency, product quality, and yield. It is designed for reliable activity within its recommended pH and temperature ranges across industrial and food applications.
Textile Biopolishing
Removes surface microfibrils from cotton fabrics, reducing pilling and creating a smooth, lustrous finish without chemical damage.
Denim Finishing
Enzymatic stone-washing of denim replaces pumice stones, achieving vintage faded looks with less fabric damage and equipment wear.
Animal Feed
Breaks down plant cell walls in feed ingredients, releasing trapped nutrients and improving digestibility for poultry, swine, and ruminants.
Cellulosic Biofuel
Converts lignocellulosic biomass (corn stover, sugarcane bagasse, wood chips) into fermentable sugars for second-generation bioethanol.
Pulp & Paper
Improves fiber modification, drainage, and deinking in recycled paper processing. Reduces refining energy in virgin pulp.
Juice & Wine Extraction
Degrades fruit cell walls to increase juice yield, improve color extraction, and accelerate must clarification.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1 What is Cellulase used for?
Cellulase is used for 🧵 Textile Biopolishing, 👖 Denim Finishing, 🐄 Animal Feed, ⛽ Cellulosic Biofuel, 📄 Pulp & Paper, and 🍷 Juice & Wine Extraction.
Q2 What are the optimal pH and temperature for Cellulase?
For best performance, use Cellulase at optimal pH 4.0–6.0 and optimal temperature 45°C–60°C.
Q3 How should I interpret the activity range (10,000–100,000 U/g)?
The activity range indicates the enzyme’s measured units per gram. Higher activity typically enables faster cellulose hydrolysis at the same dosage; final dosing should be confirmed by your application trials.
Q4 What form is Cellulase available in (powder or liquid)?
Cellulase is available as light brown to brown powder or liquid, depending on your process requirements. Powder is packed in 25 kg drums and liquid is packed in 30 kg jerricans.
Q5 What is the shelf life and how should I store Cellulase?
Cellulase has a 12-month shelf life when sealed and stored in a cool, dry place. Avoid moisture exposure and follow your COA/TDS storage guidance.
