Dyeing

The document provides an overview of the dyeing process in textile manufacturing, detailing the types of dyes and pigments used, as well as the raw materials and chemicals involved. It explains key concepts such as shade percentage, substantivity, affinity, and the processes of adsorption, sorption, and desorption. Additionally, it discusses dyeing machines, utilities, and common dyeing faults that may occur during the process.

Wet Processing-I

Dyeing
Dyeing
 Dyeing: Dyeing is a distribution process in
which the dye or pigment is distributed at
least two phases or phase systems i.e, the
dye/pigment bath or solution and the
textile material. Dyes/Pigments are
generally coloring materials for dyeing
operation. There are various types of dyes
and pigments for coloration of textiles.

Points considered for dyeing:
1.Raw materials:
3.Chemicals:
Cellulose fiber-Cotton
Acids
Protein fiber- Silk,
Alkalis
wool
Salts
Synthetic fiber-
Oxidizing agents
Polyester, Nylon,
Reducing agents
acrylic
4.Auxiliaries:
2.Dyes/Pigments:
Wetting agents
Dyes-Water soluble
Levelling agents
Water insoluble
Antifoaming agents
Pigments- Water
Anticreasing agents
insoluble

5.Dyeing machines:
Jigger dyeing machines (Woven)(fabric in open
width form)
Winch dyeing machines (Knitted) Fabric in rope
form
Jet dyeing Machines (Knitted/woven)

7.Utilities:
Air, Electricity, Gas, Compressed air.

Some important term related to dyeing:
 1.Shade %:Shade is expressed in percentage of dye
amount in unit weight of fabric.
 Depth of color
 Light shade-<O.5% owm(On the weight of Material)
 Medium shade- 0.5%-1.5% owm
 Deep shade-More than 1.5%
 2.Substantivity: The natural attraction between

dyestuff & fiber to combine together is called


substantivity.

 3.Affinity: The chemical attraction between
dyestuff & fiber to combine together due to
influence of heat or temperature is called affinity.
Dyeing is performed for the affinity of dye and
fiber.
 3.Adsorption: When dye molecules come to the

surface of the fiber ,it is called adsorption.


 4.Sorption:When dye molecules penetrate into the

fiber ,it is called sorption.


 5.Desorption: The process by which the dye

molecules come out from the inner side of the


textile materials in particular condition is called
desorption.
6.Exhaustion:When three process(Adsorption,
desorption, sorption) is completed, total dye molecules
enter into fiber then it is called exhaustion. Or A
proportion of the dye take up by the fiber at the end of
the process relative to the amount originally available is
called exhaustion%.

Exhaustion %= X100

Fixation: After finishing all processes of dyeing the
amount of dyes that remain with the fiber is called
fixation.
Fixation=Exhaustion-(Washing loss + Soaping loss +
Other loss)
= 80% - 10%
=70%

The influence of rate of flow of dyeing liquor during the dyeing process:

 Stage 1 – dyeing begins


 Stage 2 – initial dye adsorption at the fibre surface
 Stage 3 – diffusion of dye into the fibre (the rate of

diffusion depends on the concentration at the


surface)
 Stage 4 – the ideal end-point of completely uniform

dye distribution
Dyeing faults
 1. Uneven dyeing
 2. Batch to batch shade variation
 3. Patchy dyeing effect
 4. Roll to roll variation or meter to meter

variation
 5.Crease mark /Wrinkle mark
 6. Dye spot
 7. Softener mark.
