ii. Acetic Acid = 2 grams/liter
1. Treat at 80°C for 10 minutes
2. Wash cold
8. Reactive Dyeing:
a. Set pH to 6 by addition adequate quantity of Acetic acid ( may be up to 0.3 to 0.5 cc/liter)
b. Cotfix Turq Blue H2GP = 3.0%
c. Cotfix Yellow ME4GL = 1.0%

Dye using the Special Turquoise Blue Preconditioning Method:
9. Neutralize:
Acetic Acid 2.5 grams/liter (instead of 1 g/l)
10. Soaping:
a. Method -1:
I – Soaping:
Recipe:
Lissopol D paste 2 grams/liter @ 80°C for 20 minutes.
II – Soaping:
Recipe:
Lissopol D paste 1 gram/liter @ 80°C for 20 minutes.
b. Method – 2:
I – Soaping:
Recipe:
Sandopon RSK Liq 2 grams/liter
Lyocol RDN 1 gram/liter (dispersing agent for Disperse dyes – used here for better soaping)
@ 80°C for 20 minutes.

a. Sapamine OC = 1%
b. Cationic Fixing = 1%
i. @ Cold treat for 30 minutes.
ii. Wash cold
iii. Drain & unload the batch.
Note:
If a dose of 0.3 cc/liter of Acetic acid is incorporated in the soaping bath, the staining of reactive
dyes on polyester during soaping may be completely avoided. Soaping bath pH should be 5 to 6.
A final wash after Soaping with 1 gram/liter of Acetic Acid or 0.5 gram/liter of Formic acid and
maintaining a pH 5 to6 during drying would avoid tinting of reactive dyes by migration in to
polyester.
Even after taking all precautions, if the polyester part still gets stained, treat the tinted fabric
with:
Acetic Acid = 2grams/liter
Alcosperse AD = 2 grams/liter
Cibapon R liq = 2 grams/liter
At 80°C for 30 minutes; this would remove the stains from the polyester.
Summary:
1. In preparation no residual chemicals of the pretreatment should remain on the fabric. The RFD
fabric should be checked for a pH of 6 at the end of pretreatment and before dyeing.
2. The pH should be 6 at the beginning of reactive dyeing.
3. After dyeing is over, neutralization with Acetic acid should be done and check the pH to 6.
4. Ensure sufficient hot wash to reduce the electrolyte (salt) concentration to a minimum of 1 g/l
before soaping, otherwise imperfect soaping would be done.
5. During soaping maintain a pH of 6 to avoid staining of polyester.
6. The soaping temperature should be maintained strictly at 80°C. More than this would open the
polyester fiber and create a tendency for unfixed reactive dye to enter into polyester fiber as
stain.
7. The final pH should be 6 before drying and it may be controlled by using 0.5 cc/liter of
Formic Acid.
Notes on Resin finishing:
Recipe:
Resin KVS = 45 g/liter
PV Acetate = 25 g/liter
PVA = 25 g/liter
PE = 20 g/liter
Acetic Acid = 1 cc/liter
Pad 2 dip 2 nip – pressure 35 kgs/sqcm. – speed 25 mtrs/minute and temperature – 170°C – No
over feed.

Cotton-Nylon fabric/yarn dyeing
Posted by thesmarttime | dyeing | Sunday 17 January 2010 9:14 pm
Cotton and Nylon blended fabrics may be dyed using the above process diagram. Machinery:
(Cheese dyeing machine or Soft-flow machine)
• Set the dye bath with1.5 to 2.5 gpl acetic acid at room temperature.
• Add the total quantity of Glauber’s salt for reactive dyeing in two portions. This will
function like a leveling agent for acid dyeing.
• Add the dyestuff mixture of acid and reactive dyes in two portions.
• Raise the temperature to 80°C @ 1°/minute.
• Hold at 80°C for 30 to 45 minutes according to the recipe/depth of nylon dyes (acid
dyes).
• Then check the shade for nylon portion by carbonizing the cellulose in 70% Sulphuric
acid.
• If not ok, make required additions and continue dyeing otherwise reduce the temperature
to 60°C @ 2°/minute.
• At 60°C add alkali in two portions as mentioned above. Check pH. It should be 10.8 to
11.2.
• Continue dyeing for 45 to 90 minutes according to depth.
• Drop the bath.
• Cold wash twice for 10 minutes each.
• Neutralize with 1gpl of acetic acid at 40°C – Drain.
• Hot wash at 70°C – 10 minutes.
• I- Soaping with Sandopur RSK Liq – 2 gpl at 90°C
• II – Soaping with Sandopur RSK Liq – 1 gpl at 90°C
• Hot wash at 70°C
• Cold wash – twice for 10 minutes each.
• Acid wash with 1 gpl acetic acid at cold.
• Unload or take it for finishing.
Few suggestions for continuous dyeing are:
1. Continuous Dyeing of Nylon and cotton blends may be done using disperse and reactive
dyes in the same way we do for polyester and cotton. Thermosolling may be done at 80 to
90°C instead of 135 to 150°C. A bottleneck with disperse dyeing is, you can produce
only light and medium shades only. With disperse dyestuff you may not get proper yield
and washing fastness.
2. With Clariant there is a dyestuff called ‘Forosols’ that can be used for dyeing both cotton
and polyester for solid shades. You can make a lab trial in consultation with Clariant
people and then finalize your process for continuous dyeing.

Guide to Select the Right Fiber for the Right Product
Posted by thesmarttime | Uncategorized | Wednesday 13 January 2010 9:08 pm
One of the most important aspects of a textile product is the fabric. There are a number of criteria
upon which the fabric selection is based. In the world of fashion, color, texture and pattern are
paramount. However, less apparent but equally important is fiber type. Fibers have specific
properties that can influence the performance and comfort of a garment. In order to produce a
product with the desired characteristics, the appropriate fiber must be selected. (more…)

What are the benefits of Hot Mercerization?
Posted by Thesmarttime | Cotton Pretreatment, Textile Processing | Friday 23 October 2009

Short and hot …
During hot impregnation the lye penetrates faster and more evenly into the yarn core. Swelling
therefore does not take place only on the fabric surface. As Compared with cold impregnation
the swelling behavior is considerably better and has a positive influence on the dimensional
stability. The more uniform swelling gives, with dyed goods, a more equal appearance. With the
wet-on-wet method the exchange factor is increased thus permitting a shorter impregnation zone
than with conventional processes. In addition, the lye volume is kept very low. The lye
concentration is simple to control. The lye bath has been kept purposely small and under it there
is one single lye tank integrated into the machine. (more…)

Useful Hints on Reactive Dyeing
Posted by thesmarttime | Cellulose & its blend dyeing, Textile Processing | Thursday 22 October
2009 4:35 pm
General:
• Since sodium sulphate generates less sodium ion with respect to NaCL, cotton surface
becomes less substantive, that is precondition for light shades. So sodium sulphate is
preferred;
○ -Light shades
○ -Blue 19 and Blue 21
○ -Viscose fiber
○ In case low bath ratio and high circulation dyeing machines, electrolyte
concentration should be decreased.
○ If bath ratio is increased, e.g. in sample dye units, salt amount should be
increased.
○ After the addition of salt and dye, at least 40 min. should be elapsed, to obtain
perfect dye distribution and migration.
○ In case of high bicarbonate content of process water, final pH is around 10,2-10,4
which is very low for good fixation and shade repeatability. Optimum pH should
be around 10,8-11,2. After soda addition, after 15 min., 1-3 g/lt NaOH is supplied
in 15 min. and processed 15 min. more. (more…)

How to improve the tear and tensile strength of a fabric?
Posted by thesmarttime | Cotton Pretreatment, Textile Processing | Thursday 22 October 2009
11:21 am
1. How to improve the tear and tensile strength of the fabric?
1. i. There are many reasons for the loss of tensile and tear strength. Right from
singeing, if the intensity and height of the flame is higher than the required; the
fabric is likely to be scorched. To avert this, various speeds ranging from 70, 80,
90 meter/minute are to be tried in singeing and the efficiency can be ascertained
by pilling test over specified measurements (10 x 10 sq.in).
2. ii. Excessive emerizing may lead to strength loss.
3. iii. Resin finishing (for DP value) : A loss of 20 per cent fabric strength is
unavoidable if the chemicals after application and curing are not properly washed
by suitable alkali treatment (2 gpl soda ash in cold water and then washing etc.).
We also suggested a suitable recipe for obtaining a better DP value onn their
fabric. (more…)

Right Procedure for dyeing Turquoise Blue G on Viscose
rayon substrate
Posted by thesmarttime | Cellulose & its blend dyeing, Textile Processing, Uncategorized |
Wednesday 21 October 2009 9:55 pm
Some general characters of viscose fiber:
• Viscose has lower tenacity than cotton when it’s dry and wet. SO more care should be
taken in wet processing of the fabric or yarn made of viscose fiber to prevent fabric tears
and breakages. It has more elongation in wet and conditioned state than cotton fiber.
• Both viscose and modal are being supplied by the manufacturers almost in pure state and
mostly do not need any bleaching operation for dark and medium shades. However
viscose cotton blends need some mild bleaching before dyeing.
• The water retention value (swelling index) is more than cotton and modal fibers. It swells
within 10 seconds when immersed in water even at lower temperatures. It is to be noted
that the fabric acquires stiffness when it is wet because of the high swelling that makes
the fabric compact and hence stiff. (more…)
