Spinning the Web, Manchester Libraries: Darton. p. 12; Miller, Ian; Wild, Chris (2007). A & G Murray and the Cotton Mills of Ancoats. Lancaster: Oxford Archaeology North. ISBN 978-0-904220-46-9.
During the dyeing process, the dye must become close and even with the material in order to produce a uniform color that is fast to moisture, heat, and light. [5] Due to their superior fastness properties and simple application, reactive dyes are currently the most common type of dye for cotton dyeing. [6] The CPB technique uses less water and ...
Batch dyeing (exhaust dyeing) is a method of dyeing a textile material. The method involves the gradual transfer of dye from a dye bath to the textile material in the same piece of equipment. [1] The various methods of batch dyeing result from the type of machine used in the dyeing process.
With this manual, Ralph Lauren and Dow are open-sourcing this improved dyeing process to encourage adoption in the textile industry and helping standardize a more sustainable and efficient cotton ...
This technique of dyeing is unique, in that the final color is controlled by the choice of the diazoic and coupling components. This method of dyeing cotton is declining in importance due to the toxic nature of the chemicals used. Sulfur dyes are two-part "developed" dyes used to dye cotton with dark colors. The initial bath imparts a yellow or ...
The like charges repel each other, and the addition of salt aids in dyeing by generating a positive charge on the cotton surface. [7] [8] The industry has predominantly used reactive dyes to color knitted cotton goods. The treatment of salt-laden, colored effluent generated by the dyeing process is one of the industry's primary concerns. Cotton ...
Cotton is an absorbent fibre which responds readily to colouration processes. Dyeing is commonly carried out with an anionic direct dye by completely immersing the fabric (or yarn) in an aqueous dyebath according to a prescribed procedure. For improved fastness to washing, rubbing, and light, other dyes such as vats and reactives are commonly ...
Although almost all dyeing can be done in a vat, the term vat dye is used to describe a chemical class of dyes that are applied to cellulosic fibre (i.e., cotton) using a redox reaction as described below. Because of the use of caustic soda, and the very high pH of the dye bath in the dyeing process, wool cannot be dyed using vat dyestuffs.
