The invention relates to a method and unit for treating cotton cloth of twisted yarn in loom state. According to the disclosed method, the cloth is boiled with simultaneous mercerization by being alternatingly guided through a boiling solution of caustic soda and the vapor thereof. Following the boiling, the cloth is steamed in a roll under a tension of 5 to 10 kgf/m, whereas the steaming of the cloth, following its bleaching and dyeing, is effected for 1 to 2 minutes under tension, and for 2 to 10 minutes without tension. In the course of the boiling of the cloth with simultaneous mercerization in the vapor phase of caustic soda, and also prior to the steaming in the roll and to the leaching, and during the leaching, the cloth is subjected to stentering. The unit intended for performing the disclosed method comprises an apparatus for boiling with simultaneous mercerization, including a sealed chamber with a bath for a caustic soda solution and a zone for concentrating caustic soda vapors, situated above the bath and accommodating means for stentering the cloth. Similar cloth-stentering means are also accommodated in the leaching chambers and in front of these chambers, and also in front of the chamber for steaming the cloth after its boiling. The method improves the quality of finished cloth, enables to render the unit more compact and more productive.
