Definition of Disperse Dye The term ‘Disperse dye’ is an organic coloring substance which is free from ionizing group are of low water solubility and are suitable for dyeing hydrophobic textile materials from colloid dispersion. It has low molecular weight and derivatives of Azo, Anthra – quinine, Di phynile amine and other component. Properties of[…]
Reactive dyes are special coloring agents that textile industries use for dyeing fibre, yarn, fabrics, and garments. These dyes are popular in the textile industry because they make colors that fix well and don’t fade quickly. Unlike other dyes that fix on the fabric’s surface, reactive dyes combine with the fabric’s molecules through a chemical[…]
A fibre is obtained from a plant, animal, or mineral. Commercially important natural fibres are those cellulosic fibres obtained from the seed hairs, stems, and leaves of plants; protein fibres obtained from the hair, fur, or cocoons of animals; and the crystalline mineral asbestos. Vegetable fibres are generally comprised mainly of cellulose: examples include cotton, coir, kapok, jute, flax, ramie, hemp, pina,[…]
Definition of Reactive Dye Reactive dyes are a class of colored compounds that chemically bind to fibers like cotton, rayon, or linen to impart color resistance to washing and fading. To apply reactive dyes properly, we need a process with controlled conditions. Usually, they are used in an alkaline bath with sodium carbonate or sodium[…]
Mixing Mixing could be thought of combining of fibres together in somewhat haphazard proportion whose physical properties are partially known so that, the resultant mixture has only generally known average physical properties which are not easily reproducible. Blending Blending is based on the measurement of important fibre properties i.e, length, strength, cleanliness, e.t.c. Quantitatively proportioning[…]
Yarn is a material made from staple fibre or continuous filaments used to make fabrics, sweaters, scarfs, and sewing garments. Knitting and weaving factories depend on yarn to produce textiles. Sweater factories also totally depend on yarns to make sweaters. Besides, in our daily life, it has a variety of uses like sewing, crocheting, etc.[…]
