REACTIVE
HE BRAND DYES are suitable for dyeing
cotton and other cellulosic materials.
These dyes possess significantly higher
exhaustion and fixation efficiency,
which results in appreciable cost reduction,
in comparison to conventional reactive
dyes. The high fixation and good build
up are of particular importance when
dyeing polyester/cellulosic blends and
wash liquor : goods ratio is quite high.
Due to higher fixation of HE dyes, the
drained and wash liquors after dyeing
contain much less quantity of unfixed
dyes, in comparison to conventional
reactive dyes, which is of interest
when pollution control is a major concern
to everybody. This facilities quicker
wash off and efficient soaping. The
improved stability of HE dyes gives
improved batch to batch consistency.
Exhaustion of HE dyes can be controlled
by salt addition and temperature to
give level dyeing before alkali addition.
The other useful features of HE dyes
are as under:
- Excellent
build-up in high as low liquor: Goods
ratios.
- The
high fixation is of particular importance
when dyeing polyester/ cellulose blend
when liquor/goods ratio is quite high.
Under the circumstances, conventional
reactive dyes show low dyeing efficiency
and poor build-up.
- Excellent
reproducibility.
- Wide
applicability on yarn, piece material,
loose stock and garments.
- Wide
choice of equipment to suit particular
application.

DYEING
METHODS
Winch,
jet, package & beam dyeing machines
These dyes are specially designed
for exhaust dyeing methods. The
dyeing method selection depends
upon the type of substrate to be
dyed and the machinery to be used
for dyeing.

Method No. 1 : Salt addition
in portions (suitable for mercerized
yarn)
This
process is recommended for non-circulating
liquor machinery and it is suitable
for all depths of shade.
Method No. 2 : Salt addition
at start (Suitable for unmercerised
yarn)
This
method is recommended for machines
with liquor circulation and it is
suitable for medium to heavy depth
of shades.
Method No. 3 : Both salt &
alkali addition at start
The
method is recommended for machines
with liquor circulation, primarily
for the dyeing of medium - heavy
binary combinations. It is suitable
for unmercerised cotton.
Note
1: A mixture of soda ash and caustic
soda is recommended alkali for this
method.

Method No. 4 : (Dyeing Pale Shade)
(Garment dyeing)
The
method is recommended for machines
with microprocessor controlled addition
system for dyeing pale shades (less
than 0.5% depth) and for all shades
on mercerized cotton & viscose
packages
Method No. 5 : Isothermal Method
(Dyeing heavy shades garment)
The
method is recommended for machines
with microprocessor controlled addition
systems for medium to heavy depths
( >than 0.5% depth) on unmercerised
cotton.
Dyeing method for Jigger machines
Due
to high temperature dyeing the problems
of off-shade selvedges of too pale
selvedges are often encountered
in dyeing with these machines. The
following precautions hence should
be taken to avoid such problems.
- To
use closed type jiggers so that
a uniform temperature is possible
across the width of fabric.
- Batch
the fabric evenly.
- Maintain
the dye bath at minimum of 85-90oC
during salt stage.
-
Adjust
the dye bath temperature 85-90oC
to ensure that fabric is maintained
at minimum 80oC during
alkali addition stage.
Procedure
Set
the dye bath at 90oC
with resist salt 2 gms/l. Now add
1/2 amt. of dye and run one end.
Then add remaining 1/2 amt. &
run another one end. Add 1/2 amt.
of salt & run one end. Add remaining
1/2 amt. Of salt and run another
end. Maintain 80oC temperature
continue to run for 2 ends. Now
add 1/2 amt. of soda ash & run
for one end. Then add remaining
1/2 amt. Soda ash & run for
another one end. Then add remaining
1/2 amt. soda ash & run for
another one end. Then run for 4
ends or more if required & wash.
(1 end =10 minutes)
Dyeing method for cotton / polyester
blend
The one bath two stage dyeing method
for polyester / cotton blend is
applicable on jet, beam or package
dyeing machines.

Washing - off procedure
In
order to obtain maximum wet-fastness
properties, brightness and purity
of shades with consistent dyeing
results, it is essential to give
a through 'Soaping' to clear-off
unreached hydrolyzed dye form the
dyed fabric.
The dyed fabric is rinsed repeatedly
in cold water to remove most of
the alkali, salt and unfixed dye
present and rinse again in warm
water not higher than 60oC.
then run in a bath containing:
Anionic detergent - 1-2 gms/liter
for 15 minutes at the boil. Then
rinse in warm water (up to 60oC)
and finally in cold water. The most
satisfactory results in washing-off,
particularly for piece goods, are
obtained by employing an Open soaper
or perforated beam-washing machine.
If such equipments are not available,
conventional ones like jig or winch
may be used. For yarn in the hank
form open-vat is employed and for
yarn in packaged form the package-dyeing
machine itself used.
