Sizing:-

The process of application of size solution to yarns by immersion into the solution
& squeezing, which is followed by drying to make the warp yarn more suitable for
wearing is known as sizing.
The primary purpose of warp sizing is to produce a warp, which will suffer the
least damage in wearing. In some cases it is also used to modify the characters of
the yarn so as have as effect on the fabric weight, hand feel. But sizing is mainly
done to make the warp yarn stronger, smooth & better lubricated.
In the steps of producing the sample fabric the sizing is a vital step, which is
done after producing the warper’s beam. In the sizing unit of Sinha Textile Group
the chemicals used for sizing are here,

-Finnfix 30(For Finer Yarn Count Like Above 26’s)

-Finnfix 150(For Coarser Yarn Count Like 8’s-24’s)
-Finnfix 700(For Coarser Yarn Count Like 8’s-24’s)
-Trifix (Wax)

Normal recipe for sizing of coarser yarn count is-

-Water--- 500 Litres
-Finnfix 700--- 20 Kg
-Finnfix 150--- 13 Kg
-Trifix (Wax)--- 02 Kg
-Chemical Coating Time--- 25 min.
-Sizing Time--- 02 hours(For 5000m Length at 35-40m/min speed)

In this way sizing of the warp yarn is done & finally we are getting the weaver’s
beam of the ordered sample.
