Abstract: The aim of this project is to find out the changes that occur in physical properties of denim when it is subjected to enzyme stone and acid wash or to find out the impact of enzyme stone and acid wash. 97% cotton 3% elastomer twill, weave 3/1, construction 72 × 40/9 × 7 indigo dyed denim fabric leg panels as per lab standard recipe are used here to examine. Firstly, desizing was done as pre-treatments and after treatment was silicon softener. After washing process, different samples from both washing are going to express different behavior on physical properties. This experiment is done to find out the discrimination in tearing strength, shrinkage %, color fastness to wash, color fastness to rubbing, pH rate between stone enzyme wash and acid wash of denim garments.

Keywords: Stone Enzyme Wash, Acid Wash pH Range 4.5 - 5.5, Shrinkage %, Tearing Strength, Color Fastness
