DOI: 10.1016/j.jclepro.2018.02.196

Abstract: Abstract An anti-felting finishing process based on recycling waste wool material was proposed. Wool fabric was pretreated with L-cysteine and then treated with the keratin polypeptides, extracted by protease from the waste wool. And then,… read more here.
