Definitions
- the present invention relates to a biochemical retting process for Liberian fibrous plants such as hemp, flax, ramie, jute and kenaf.
- the invention relates in particular to a biochemical process, the application of which is intended to allow the use, by the textile or para-textile industry or the rope industry, of liberian, cellulosic and similar fibrous plants, which have not undergone the natural retting which makes it possible to separate the fibers in the bundle.
- the Liberian fibrous plants after their harvest, are subjected to natural retting, either on land by exposure to the weather, or in water for the natural development of microorganisms whose effect is disintegration and "digestion" of the natural cements which bind the fibers within the bundle in the Liberian fibrous plants.
- This technique directly linked to atmospheric and hydrographic conditions, requires a duration of action of the order of 2 to 5 weeks and the intervention of labor and important equipment.
- Hemp is one of the so-called Liberian fiber plants, in which the cellulosic fibers are bundled in the liber surrounding the stem of the plant.
- Flax, ramie, jute and kenaf are the main other fiber plants belonging to this family of Liberian plants.
- the cellulosic fibers of these plants must be separated from the bast, then from them in bundles. This separation is made possible by natural retting. It is then carried out mechanically using specially adapted textile material.
- Natural retting an operation known and practiced for centuries, consists in immersing the stems in the water of certain rivers for relatively long periods, immersion which results in the natural development of bacteria, anaerobes which generate micro-organisms capable of degrading the plant macromolecules which weld the beams together in the liber and the fibers between them in the beams.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide an industrial process for the retting of Liberian fibrous plants in order to solve the reliability and reproducibility problems posed by the natural retting processes due to meteorological hazards.
- the biochemical retting process of fibrous Liberian plants, in particular hemp, in order to obtain the degradation of cements aggregating the fibers in the bundles and thus allow their physical separation for their use in spinning or cordage in view of the manufacture of yarns or rovings usable in the textile or paratextile industry, or cordage is characterized in that the fibrous plants are treated by means of at least one SPS-ase enzyme.
- the process which is the subject of the invention is based on the main use of this SPS-ase enzyme which makes it possible to break the macromolecular chains of the cements which link together the cellulosic fibers in the fibrous plants of Liberia such as hemp, linen, ramie, jute, kenaf, etc. while not touching, or as little as possible, the cellulose constituting the fibers of interest for the textile or paratextile industry.
- the SPS-ase enzyme used for this purpose is specific to the non-cellulosic constituents of fibers, which weld the fibers together within the fiber bundle.
- the SPS-ase enzyme used in the process according to the invention is a broad spectrum polyactive enzyme acting on polysaccharides.
- This SPS-ase enzyme has been described in British patent 2,115,820. It is marketed by the Danish company NOVO INDUSTRI A / S under the reference SP 249. This enzyme has the following four main activities: - pectolytic activity - cellulolitic activity - hemicellulolitic activity - proteolytic activity.
- pectolytic activity of this enzyme would appear, according to the research carried out by the applicants, to be more at the level of the reduction in viscosity of pectins, water-soluble parts of pectic materials essentially consisting of polygalacturonic acid comprising various amounts of methyl ester groups or at the level of the depolymerization of water-soluble protopectins with a high degree of esterification.
- the cellulolitic activity is observed especially at the level of the natural carboxy-methyl-celluloses of plants. This activity is interesting in the retting of hemp due to the degradation of C.M.C. which constitute a very resistant "glue" with high adhesive power.
- This cellulolitic activity is supplemented by a gluconic fungal activity and above all by a tiny cellubiase activity, which makes it possible to avoid degradation of the cellulose fibers, the only ones which are interesting and the aim of the whole operation.
- the hemicellulolitic activity the aim of which is the degradation of hemicelluloses, xylans, as well as polyoses such as arabinase and ⁇ galactoses.
- This broad spectrum polysaccharidase also has proteolytic activity on plant proteins.
- SPS-ase is enhanced when the treatment is carried out by means of a mixture of this enzyme with beta-glucanase and / or pectinase.
- ⁇ -glucanase acts by hydrolysis of ⁇ glucans at the level of the ⁇ 1-3 and ⁇ 1-4 bonds into oligosaccharides and soluble dissaccharides.
- Pectinase has a double activity on pectic matters, namely: - a non-depolymerizing activity, - depolymerizing activity.
- the three types of enzymes above thus have complementary activities and in addition the important characteristic of having application conditions compatible with the treatment of bast fibers, namely an optimal pH zone located between pH 4 and pH 6 and an optimal temperature range between 40 and 60 ° C.
- the treatment of Liberian plants is carried out by impregnation and then maceration of the straws or tows in an aqueous medium containing the above enzyme (s).
- the maceration time should be between one hour and forty eight hours, preferably between three and thirty six hours.
- the maceration temperature must be between 20 ° C and 70 ° C, preferably between 40 ° C and 60 ° C and this maceration is carried out at a pH between 3 and 7, preferably between 4 and 6, this pH being adjusted using an organic acid.
- a first series of tests consisted in determining, on paper tows, the action of broad spectrum polysaccharidase (SPS-ase) by subjecting to the action of an enzyme bath of a defined concentration of the quantities identical tows in order to define the optimal duration of the enzymatic action.
- SPS-ase broad spectrum polysaccharidase
- enzymatic macerations were carried out hour by hour from 1 to 12 hours and then at 6 p.m. - 12:30 p.m. - 36 - 48 - 60 - 72 - 84 and 96 hours.
- hemp samples for 8 to 12 hours, then 18 - 24 and 30 hours, to hemp samples of SPS-ase enzyme of increasing concentration and at pH and constant temperature.
- pectinase With regard to pectinase, a more specific action appeared at the level of the colored "cuticle" surrounding the fiber bundles, as well as at the level of the silky and softness of the fibers, no doubt as a result of the degradation and of the solubilization of this cuticle.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un procédé de rouissage biochimique des plantes fibreuses libériennes telles que le chanvre, le lin, la ramie, le jute et le kenaf.The present invention relates to a biochemical retting process for Liberian fibrous plants such as hemp, flax, ramie, jute and kenaf.
L'invention concerne en particulier un procédé biochimique dont l'application a pour but de permettre l'utilisation, par l'industrie textile ou para-textile ou la corderie, de plantes fibreuses libériennes, cellulosiques et assimilées, n'ayant pas subi le rouissage naturel qui rend possible la séparation des fibres dans le faisceau.The invention relates in particular to a biochemical process, the application of which is intended to allow the use, by the textile or para-textile industry or the rope industry, of liberian, cellulosic and similar fibrous plants, which have not undergone the natural retting which makes it possible to separate the fibers in the bundle.
Dans l'art antérieur, les plantes fibreuses libériennes, après leur récolte, sont soumises au rouissage naturel, soit sur terre par exposition aux intempéries, soit dans l'eau en vue du développement naturel de microorganismes dont l'effet est la désagrégation et la "digestion" des céments naturels qui lient les fibres au sein du faisceau dans les plantes fibreuses libériennes. Cette technique, directement liée aux conditions atmosphériques et hydrographiques, nécessite une durée d'action de l'ordre de 2 à 5 semaines et l'intervention d'une main-d'oeuvre et d'un matériel important.In the prior art, the Liberian fibrous plants, after their harvest, are subjected to natural retting, either on land by exposure to the weather, or in water for the natural development of microorganisms whose effect is disintegration and "digestion" of the natural cements which bind the fibers within the bundle in the Liberian fibrous plants. This technique, directly linked to atmospheric and hydrographic conditions, requires a duration of action of the order of 2 to 5 weeks and the intervention of labor and important equipment.
Le chanvre fait partie des plantes à fibres, dites libériennes, dans lesquelles les fibres cellulosiques se trouvent soudées en faisceaux dans le liber entourant la tige de la plante.Hemp is one of the so-called Liberian fiber plants, in which the cellulosic fibers are bundled in the liber surrounding the stem of the plant.
Le lin, la ramie, le jute et le kénaf sont les principales autres plantes à fibres faisant partie de cette famille de plantes libériennes.Flax, ramie, jute and kenaf are the main other fiber plants belonging to this family of Liberian plants.
Pour être utilisables dans l'industrie textile, les fibres cellulosiques de ces plantes doivent être séparées du liber, puis d'entre elles dans les faisceaux. Cette séparation est rendue possible par le rouissage naturel. Elle est réalisée mécaniquement ensuite à l'aide de matériel textile spécialement adapté.To be usable in the textile industry, the cellulosic fibers of these plants must be separated from the bast, then from them in bundles. This separation is made possible by natural retting. It is then carried out mechanically using specially adapted textile material.
Le rouissage naturel, opération connue et pratiquée depuis des siècles, consiste à immerger les tiges dans l'eau de certains cours d'eau pour des durées relativement longues, immersion qui a pour effet le développement naturel de bactéries, anaérobies qui génèrent des micro-organismes capables de dégrader les macromolécules végétales qui soudent les faisceaux entre eux dans le liber et les fibres entre elles dans les faisceaux.Natural retting, an operation known and practiced for centuries, consists in immersing the stems in the water of certain rivers for relatively long periods, immersion which results in the natural development of bacteria, anaerobes which generate micro-organisms capable of degrading the plant macromolecules which weld the beams together in the liber and the fibers between them in the beams.
Ce rouissage, dit à l'eau, tout en étant encore pratiqué sur une petite échelle, est de plus en plus remplacé par le rouissage -dit terre- qui consiste à laisser sur terre, après fauchage ou arrachage, les tiges des plantes libériennes afin de provoquer l'action bactérienne développée par la microflore du sol grâce à l'alternance de périodes de pluies et de chaleur humide.This retting, known as water, while still being practiced on a small scale, is more and more replaced by retting - called earth - which consists in leaving on earth, after mowing or uprooting, the stems of Liberian plants in order to cause the bacterial action developed by the soil microflora thanks to the alternation of periods of rain and humid heat.
Pendant toute la durée de cette exposition (plusieurs semaines) des tiges aux intempéries, il est bien entendu indispensable de retourner les andains pour que l'ensemble des tiges subisse une action aussi régulière que possible.During the whole duration of this exposure (several weeks) of the stems to bad weather, it is of course essential to turn over the swaths so that all the stems undergo an action as regular as possible.
Cette opération, relativement aisée dans le cas du lin dont les tiges mesurent environ 80 cm à 1 mètre, est très difficilement réalisable pour le chanvre dont les tiges atteignent 2,50 m à 3 m de long.This operation, relatively easy in the case of flax whose stems measure approximately 80 cm to 1 meter, is very difficult to achieve for hemp whose stems reach 2.50 m to 3 m long.
Par ailleurs, la récolte du chanvre étant plus tardive que celle du lin : fin août - mi-septembre, les conditions climatiques régissant le rouissage "terre", deviennent de plus en plus aléatoires, du fait de la diminution de l'ensoleillement et de l'augmentation des précipitations.In addition, the harvest of hemp being later than that of flax: at the end of August - mid-September, the climatic conditions governing the retting "earth", become more and more random, due to the reduction of sunshine and increased precipitation.
Pour ces raisons et par suite de l'abandon du rouissage à l'eau, les chanvriers furent amenés à abandonner l'exploitation du chanvre à destination textile pour ne conserver que la filière papetière.For these reasons and as a result of the abandonment of retting with water, the hemp workers were led to abandon the exploitation of hemp for textile use in order to keep only the paper industry.
Ainsi les demandeurs, à la recherche de nouveaux débouchés pour l'exploitation du chanvre et plantes libériennes analogues, ont recherché la possibilité de rouir artificiellement ces plantes.Thus the applicants, in search of new outlets for the exploitation of hemp and similar Liberian plants, sought the possibility of artificially retting these plants.
Les demandeurs ont ainsi cherché à séparer les fibres des faisceaux par dégradation des céments les reliant.The applicants have thus sought to separate the fibers from the bundles by degradation of the cements connecting them.
Toutes les approches purement chimiques se sont avérées négatives du fait que la dégradation des céments par ces moyens s'accompagnait toujours d'une altération importante des fibres de cellulose.All purely chemical approaches have negative since the degradation of the cements by these means was always accompanied by a significant deterioration of the cellulose fibers.
Le but de l'invention est donc de fournir un procédé industriel de rouissage de plantes fibreuses libériennes pour résoudre les problèmes de fiabilité et de reproductibilité que posent les processus naturels de rouissage dûs aux aléas météorologiques.The object of the invention is therefore to provide an industrial process for the retting of Liberian fibrous plants in order to solve the reliability and reproducibility problems posed by the natural retting processes due to meteorological hazards.
Suivant l'invention, le procédé de rouissage biochimique des plantes fibreuses libériennes, en particulier le chanvre, afin d'obtenir la dégradation de céments agrégeant les fibres dans les faisceaux et de permettre ainsi leur séparation physique pour leur utilisation en filature ou corderie en vue de la fabrication de filés ou mèches utilisables dans l'industrie textile ou paratextile, ou la corderie, est caractérisé en ce qu'on traite les plantes fibreuses au moyen d'au moins une enzyme SPS-ase.According to the invention, the biochemical retting process of fibrous Liberian plants, in particular hemp, in order to obtain the degradation of cements aggregating the fibers in the bundles and thus allow their physical separation for their use in spinning or cordage in view of the manufacture of yarns or rovings usable in the textile or paratextile industry, or cordage, is characterized in that the fibrous plants are treated by means of at least one SPS-ase enzyme.
Le procédé objet de l'invention est basé sur l'utilisation principale de cette enzyme SPS-ase qui permet de rompre les chaînes macromoléculaires des céments qui relient entre elles les fibres cellulosiques dans les plantes fibreuses libériennes telles que le chanvre, le lin, la ramie, le jute, le kenaf, etc. tout en ne touchant pas, ou le moins possible, à la cellulose constituant les fibres intéressantes pour l'industrie textile ou paratextile.The process which is the subject of the invention is based on the main use of this SPS-ase enzyme which makes it possible to break the macromolecular chains of the cements which link together the cellulosic fibers in the fibrous plants of Liberia such as hemp, linen, ramie, jute, kenaf, etc. while not touching, or as little as possible, the cellulose constituting the fibers of interest for the textile or paratextile industry.
L'enzyme SPS-ase utilisée à cet effet est spécifique des constituants non cellulosiques des fibres, et qui soudent entre elles les fibres à l'intérieur du faisceau de fibres.The SPS-ase enzyme used for this purpose is specific to the non-cellulosic constituents of fibers, which weld the fibers together within the fiber bundle.
Dans la suite de la présente description, les constituants non cellulosiques des fibres seront désignés "cements".In the remainder of this description, the non-cellulosic constituents of the fibers will be designated "cements".
La nature chimique de ces céments n'est pas encore réellement connue.The chemical nature of these cements is not yet really known.
L'enzyme SPS-ase utilisée dans le procédé selon l'invention est une enzyme polyactive à large spectre agissant sur les polysaccharides. Cette enzyme SPS-ase a été décrite dans le brevet britannique 2 115 820. Elle est commercialisée par la société danoise NOVO INDUSTRI A/S sous la référence SP 249. Cette enzyme possède les quatre activités principales suivantes :
- une activité pectolytique
- une activité cellulolitique
- une activité hémicellulolitique
- une activité protéolytique.The SPS-ase enzyme used in the process according to the invention is a broad spectrum polyactive enzyme acting on polysaccharides. This SPS-ase enzyme has been described in British patent 2,115,820. It is marketed by the Danish company NOVO INDUSTRI A / S under the reference SP 249. This enzyme has the following four main activities:
- pectolytic activity
- cellulolitic activity
- hemicellulolitic activity
- proteolytic activity.
L'activité pectolytique de cette enzyme semblerait d'après les recherches effectuées par les demandeurs, se situer plus au niveau de la réduction de viscosité des pectines, parties hydrosolubles des matières pectiques constituées essentiellement d'acide polygalacturonique comportant diverses quantités de groupements esters méthyliques ou au niveau de la dépolymérisation des protopectines hydrosolubles à haut degré d'estérification.The pectolytic activity of this enzyme would appear, according to the research carried out by the applicants, to be more at the level of the reduction in viscosity of pectins, water-soluble parts of pectic materials essentially consisting of polygalacturonic acid comprising various amounts of methyl ester groups or at the level of the depolymerization of water-soluble protopectins with a high degree of esterification.
L'activité cellulolitique est observée surtout au niveau des carboxy-méthyl-celluloses naturelles des végétaux. Cette activité est intéressante dans le rouissage du chanvre par suite de la dégradation des C.M.C. qui constituent une "colle" très résistante et à haut pouvoir adhésif.The cellulolitic activity is observed especially at the level of the natural carboxy-methyl-celluloses of plants. This activity is interesting in the retting of hemp due to the degradation of C.M.C. which constitute a very resistant "glue" with high adhesive power.
Cette activité cellulolitique est complétée par une activité fongique gluconique et surtout par une infime activité cellubiase, qui permet d'éviter une dégradation des fibres de cellulose, seules intéressantes et but de toute l'opération.This cellulolitic activity is supplemented by a gluconic fungal activity and above all by a tiny cellubiase activity, which makes it possible to avoid degradation of the cellulose fibers, the only ones which are interesting and the aim of the whole operation.
L'activité hémicellulolitique dont le but est la dégradation des hémicelluloses, xylanes, ainsi que des polyoses tels que arabinase et α galactoses.The hemicellulolitic activity, the aim of which is the degradation of hemicelluloses, xylans, as well as polyoses such as arabinase and α galactoses.
Cette polysaccharidase à large spectre possède aussi une activité protéolytique sur les protéines végétales.This broad spectrum polysaccharidase also has proteolytic activity on plant proteins.
Les demandeurs ont constaté que l'action de la SPS-ase était renforcée lorsque le traitement était effectué au moyen d'un mélange de cette enzyme avec la béta-glucanase et/ou la pectinase.The applicants have found that the action of SPS-ase is enhanced when the treatment is carried out by means of a mixture of this enzyme with beta-glucanase and / or pectinase.
La β-glucanase agit par hydrolyse des β glucanes au niveau des liaisons β 1-3 et β 1-4 en oligosaccharides et dissaccharides solubles.Β-glucanase acts by hydrolysis of β glucans at the level of the β 1-3 and β 1-4 bonds into oligosaccharides and soluble dissaccharides.
Cette hydrolyse s'accompagne aussi d'une réduction notoire de la viscosité des bains.This hydrolysis is also accompanied by a marked reduction in the viscosity of the baths.
La pectinase possède une activité double sur les matières pectiques, à savoir :
- une activité non dépolymérisante,
- une activité dépolymérisante.Pectinase has a double activity on pectic matters, namely:
- a non-depolymerizing activity,
- depolymerizing activity.
Grâce à l'activité non-dépolymérisante de cette enzyme, il n'y a pas de réduction de la longueur des chaînes de pectines mais diminution de leur degré d'estérification par ouverture du pont ester entre les groupes carboxyles de l'acide galacturonique unitaire et les groupements méthanol.Thanks to the non-depolymerizing activity of this enzyme, there is no reduction in the length of the pectin chains but reduction in their degree of esterification by opening the ester bridge between the carboxyl groups of unitary galacturonic acid. and methanol groups.
Cette réduction du degré d'estérification se traduit par une diminution de la viscosité et une élimination plus facile des pectines hydrosolubles lors du rouissage.This reduction in the degree of esterification results in a reduction in viscosity and easier elimination of the water-soluble pectins during retting.
Les trois types d'enzymes ci-dessus présentent ainsi des activités complémentaires et en plus la particularité importante de posséder des conditions d'application compatibles avec le traitement des fibres libériennes, à savoir une zone de pH optimale située entre pH 4 et pH 6 et une plage de température optimale comprise entre 40 et 60°C.The three types of enzymes above thus have complementary activities and in addition the important characteristic of having application conditions compatible with the treatment of bast fibers, namely an optimal pH zone located between pH 4 and pH 6 and an optimal temperature range between 40 and 60 ° C.
Le traitement des plantes libériennes est effectué par imprégnation et ensuite macération des pailles ou étoupes dans un milieu aqueux renfermant la ou les enzymes ci-dessus.The treatment of Liberian plants is carried out by impregnation and then maceration of the straws or tows in an aqueous medium containing the above enzyme (s).
La durée de macération doit être comprise entre une heure et quarante huit heures, de préférence entre trois et trente six heures.The maceration time should be between one hour and forty eight hours, preferably between three and thirty six hours.
Par ailleurs, la température de macération doit être comprise entre 20°C et 70°C, de préférence entre 40°C et 60°C et cette macération est effectuée à pH compris entre 3 et 7, de préférence entre 4 et 6, ce pH étant ajusté à l'aide d'un acide organique.Furthermore, the maceration temperature must be between 20 ° C and 70 ° C, preferably between 40 ° C and 60 ° C and this maceration is carried out at a pH between 3 and 7, preferably between 4 and 6, this pH being adjusted using an organic acid.
Les demandeurs ont déterminé l'application des enzymes de manière empirique, en définissant au fur et à mesure de l'avancement de leur étude la qualité du rouissage obtenu par l'aptitude au cardage des étoupes de chanvre traitées selon l'invention.The applicants determined the application of the enzymes empirically, defining as the progress of their study the quality of the retting obtained by the carding ability of the hemp tows treated according to the invention.
Ces essais de cardage ont été systématiquement menés sur une carde de laboratoire sur les poignées d'étoupes traitées selon l'invention.These carding tests were systematically carried out on a laboratory card on the handles of tows treated according to the invention.
Une première série d'essais a consisté à determiner, sur des étoupes papetières, l'action de la polysaccharidase à large spectre (SPS-ase) en soumettant à l'action d'un bain d'enzyme d'une concentration définie des quantités d'étoupes identiques et ce dans le but de définir la durée optimale de l'action enzymatique.A first series of tests consisted in determining, on paper tows, the action of broad spectrum polysaccharidase (SPS-ase) by subjecting to the action of an enzyme bath of a defined concentration of the quantities identical tows in order to define the optimal duration of the enzymatic action.
A cet effet, il a été réalisé des macérations enzymatiques d'heure en heure de 1 à 12 heures puis à 18 h -24 h-30 -36 - 48 - 60 - 72 - 84 et 96 heures.For this purpose, enzymatic macerations were carried out hour by hour from 1 to 12 hours and then at 6 p.m. - 12:30 p.m. - 36 - 48 - 60 - 72 - 84 and 96 hours.
Ainsi, par comparaison de la séparation des faisceaux au cardage, il a été défini une période optimale comprise entre 18 et 30 heures. En deça des 12 heures, il a été observé une mauvaise séparation des faisceaux avec rupture des faisceaux au cardage.Thus, by comparison of the separation of the beams at carding, an optimal period of between 18 and 30 hours has been defined. Within 12 hours, poor separation of the beams was observed with breaking of the beams during carding.
Au-delà des 36 heures, il a été observé une bonne séparation des faisceaux mais de nombreuses ruptures de fibres.Beyond the 36 hours, good separation of the bundles was observed, but numerous breaks in the fibers.
Des essais systématiques sur des échantillons de chanvre différents les uns des autres par leur coloration, chanvre blond-vert ou chanvre brun foncé, ont été effectués. Dans tous les cas, les meilleurs résultats au test de cardage ont été trouvés avec une durée de 22 à 26 heures.Systematic tests on hemp samples different from each other by their coloring, blond-green hemp or dark brown hemp, were carried out. In all cases, the best carding test results were found with a duration of 22 to 26 hours.
Dans tous les cas, quel que soit le type de chanvre, il a été trouvé une très bonne séparation des faisceaux et des fibres au terme de cette période.In all cases, whatever the type of hemp, a very good separation of the bundles and the fibers was found at the end of this period.
Il est couramment admis que l'action d'une enzyme est proportionnelle à sa concentration. D'autre part, il est souvent affirmé que la rapidité de l'action enzymatique est directement liée à la concentration des enzymes.It is commonly accepted that the action of an enzyme is proportional to its concentration. On the other hand, it is often claimed that the speed of the enzymatic action is directly linked to the concentration of enzymes.
Pour déterminer la concentration optimale, les demandeurs ont soumis pendant des durées de 8 à 12 heures, puis 18 - 24 et 30 heures des échantillons de chanvre à des bains d'enzyme SPS-ase de concentration croissante et à pH et température constante.To determine the optimum concentration, the applicants subjected hemp samples for 8 to 12 hours, then 18 - 24 and 30 hours, to hemp samples of SPS-ase enzyme of increasing concentration and at pH and constant temperature.
En utilisant le test de cardage comme élément d'appréciation du rouissage enzymatique, il a été constaté qu'à haute concentration de l'enzyme, les macérations inférieures à 18 heures étaient moins efficaces que les macérations de 20 à 30 heures pour des concentrations plus faibles.Using the carding test as an element of appreciation of the enzymatic retting, it has been found that at high concentration of the enzyme, macerations for less than 18 hours were less effective than macerations for 20 to 30 hours for higher concentrations. weak.
L'efficacité des deux autres enzymes, à savoir la β glucanase et la pectinase, a été déterminée dans les mêmes conditions que la polysaccharidase SPS-ase.The effectiveness of the other two enzymes, namely β glucanase and pectinase, was determined under the same conditions as the SPS-ase polysaccharidase.
Les résultats obtenus en ce qui concerne la séparation des faisceaux et des fibres ont été moins probants qu'avec la polysaccharidase (SPS-ase), mais il a été constaté une action plus importante de la β glucanase sur la dégradation des anas qui deviennent plus cassants et plus friables ainsi qu'une très nette amélioration du détachement des lanières ou faisceaux de fibres des anas et des morceaux de tiges.The results obtained with regard to the separation of the bundles and the fibers were less convincing than with polysaccharidase (SPS-ase), but it was noted a more important action of β glucanase on the degradation of the shives which become more brittle and more brittle as well as a very clear improvement in the detachment of strips or bundles of fibers from shives and pieces of stems.
En ce qui concerne la pectinase, il est apparu une action plus spécifique au niveau de la "cuticule" colorée entourant les faisceaux de fibres, ainsi qu'au niveau du soyeux et de la douceur des fibres, sans doute par suite de la dégradation et de la solubilisation de cette cuticule.With regard to pectinase, a more specific action appeared at the level of the colored "cuticle" surrounding the fiber bundles, as well as at the level of the silky and softness of the fibers, no doubt as a result of the degradation and of the solubilization of this cuticle.
En vue de rechercher la plus grande efficacité pour le rouissage enzymatique, les demandeurs ont repris leurs essais systématiques à l'aide de mélanges des trois enzymes ci-dessus jusqu' à l'obtention par cardage d'un ruban présentant des fibres longues, bien séparées -sans aller toutefois à la séparation unitaire- soyeuses et comportant le moins d'anas ou déchets d'anas.In order to seek the greatest efficiency for the enzymatic retting, the applicants have resumed their systematic tests using mixtures of the above three enzymes until carding is obtained with a ribbon having long fibers, although separated - without going to unitary separation, however - silky and containing the least amount of shives or shea waste.
Les essais ont ainsi permis de déterminer que les quantités d'enzymes mises en oeuvre par rapport au poids sec de pailles ou d'étoupes de plantes fibreuses libériennes doivent être les suivantes :
- a) pour la pectinase comprises entre 0,01% et 2% et de préférence entre 0,05% et 1%,
- b) pour la béta-glucanase comprises entre 0,10% et 3% et de préférence entre 0,25% et 2%,
- c) pour l'enzyme à spectre d'action plus large, entre 0,25% et 5%, et de préférence entre 0,5% et 3%.
- a) for pectinase of between 0.01% and 2% and preferably between 0.05% and 1%,
- b) for beta-glucanase of between 0.10% and 3% and preferably between 0.25% and 2%,
- c) for the enzyme with a wider action spectrum, between 0.25% and 5%, and preferably between 0.5% and 3%.
Les trois enzymes dégradant les polymères par suite de leur activité propre à la scission de liaisons bien définies, sembleraient aussi améliorer la solubilisation et la diminution de la viscosité des produits de dégradation aboutissant ainsi à leur meilleure élimination par rinçage en fin de macération. En effet, les étoupes traitées par le mélange ternaire ont nettement moins tendance à "recoller" entre elles lors du séchage faisant suite à un rinçage succinct que les étoupes traitées avec la seule polysaccharidase.The three enzymes degrading the polymers as a result of their activity specific to the cleavage of well defined bonds, would also seem to improve the solubilization and the reduction in the viscosity of the degradation products thus leading to their better elimination by rinsing at the end of maceration. In fact, the tows treated with the ternary mixture have a much less tendency to "stick" together during drying following a brief rinsing than the tows treated with the only polysaccharidase.
Les demandeurs ont toujours obtenu lors de leurs essais des fibres de chanvre résistantes et de bonne ténacité. Cela est dû sans doute au fait que les trois enzymes retenues n'ont pas, ou pratiquement pas, d'action sur la cellulose mais aussi au fait que toutes les réactions de dégradation aboutissent à la formation de sucres réducteurs. Il n'y a donc pratiquement pas de risque de formation d'hydrocellulose, et donc diminution du D.P. de la cellulose par oxydation acide.The applicants have always obtained, during their tests, resistant and good tenacity hemp fibers. This is no doubt due to the fact that the three enzymes retained have little or no action on the cellulose, but also to the fact that all the degradation reactions result in the formation of reducing sugars. There is therefore practically no risk of hydrocellulose formation, and therefore reduction of the D.P. of the cellulose by acid oxidation.
Il va de soi que de nombreuses modifications peuvent être apportées à la mise en oeuvre du procédé décrit sans sortir pour autant du cadre de l'invention.It goes without saying that numerous modifications can be made to the implementation of the method described without thereby departing from the scope of the invention.
