    Cross dyeing is "a method of dyeing blend or combination fabrics to two or more shades by the use of dyes with different affinities for the different fibers". [10] The cross dyeing process can be used to create heather effects, and plaid, check, or striped fabrics.

    Further work by Hoffman [18] along with the discovery of benzene’s structure (1858) and carbon’s tetravalency(1865), this science built the groundwork for modern organic chemistry. [19] In the late 1860s many companies began offering a full spectrum of colors, and were already outcompeting many natural dyes for market share.

  4. Dyeing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyeing

    The dope dyeing applies to synthetic fiber only. This method of dyeing is also known as solution dyeing [10] and 'mass coloration' or 'mass colored'. It has limited color options. [11] [12] Fiber dyeing: In fiber dyeing, the dyeing takes place at the fiber stage before they are spun into yarn. It is also called stock dyeing.

    Cudbear is one of the few natural dyes to be credited to a named individual, Dr Cuthbert Gordon of Scotland, who patented the process of its production in 1758. [8] cutch Cutch is an ancient brown dye from the wood of acacia trees, particularly Acacia catechu, used in India for dyeing cotton. Cutch gives gray-browns with an iron mordant and ...

  6. Discharge printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discharge_printing

    Printing is the process of adding localized or patterned color to fabrics. [2] Discharge printing involves dyeing first with dischargeable dyes; subsequently, the dyed fabric undergoes a printing process involving the application of a chemical-infused paste that effectively removes the color imparted by the dye.

  7. Chemical coloring of metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_coloring_of_metals

    Chemical coloring of metals is the process of changing the color of metal surfaces with different chemical solutions. The chemical coloring of metals can be split into three types: electroplating – coating the metal surface with another metal using electrolysis. patination – chemically reacting the metal surface to form a colored oxide or ...

  8. Cationization of cotton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cationization_of_cotton

    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 ...

  9. Vat dye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vat_dye

    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.
