Method of polyester dyeing : 

There are 3 methods of polyester dyeing .they are

  Carrier method
  Pad thermosol method
  High temperature high pressure method
 

  Polyester Dyeing process

.  Carrier method:
This process is used for dyeing polyester/cellulosic fibre fabrics in jigger or winch-beck.
Dye paste with dispersing agent with water
 Raise temp 60*C & add chemicals with materials
 
 Maintain pH with acetic acid 4.5-5.5
 Raise temp 95*C for 45 min

 .  HTHP METHOD :
Paste dye  with dispersing agent
 pH control with acetic acid&  keep it 4.5-5.5
     
add material at 60*C
 raise temperature at 130 & run the bath for 1 hr

.  pad thermosol method

it is a continuous method of dyeing . in this process 180-220* C temp is needed. Dyeing can be
possible within very short time like 1-2 min. it has 4 steps

1. padding

2. drying

3. thermofixing

4. after treatment

  Process:
 padded with dye with chemical
dryed in IR dryer
thermosol unit in 180-220 *C for  60-90s
wash to remove unfixed dye

Dyeing of PC blended fabric with disperse and

reactive dye (Tone effect).
Asif Ahmed Safwan-02:26

Name of The Experiments : Dyeing of PC blended fabric with disperse and reactive dye (Tone
effect).

1. Objective:

         To learn about dyeing of blended fabric.

         To learn about factors achieving to tone effect in case of blended fabric dyeing.
 2. Theory:

In case of PC blended dyeing in lab, the two bath process is more suitable to achieve optimum
shade. In this experiment the objective is to achieve tone effect on fabric, which means to different
fibers dye with different dyes but the both shade should same color. So we have to achieve same
color of fabric without noticing any difference between different fibers.

3. Experimental Procedure:

Sample:  Pre-treated PC blended knit fabric.

Dyes & Chemicals:

Table 4.1: List of dyes and chemicals

Dyes & Chemicals Function

Disperse dye To dye polyester part of the blended.

Dispersing agent It assists in the process of particle size reduction of dye.

Acetic acid Control pH of disperse dye bath.

Carrier Use to transport dye molecule to fabric surface.

Reactive dye To dye cotton part of the blended.

Levelling agent Use to reduce the surface tension of water.

Glauber salt Use as electrolyte.

Soda ash Control pH of reactive dye bath.

Equipment List:

o   Beaker.

o   Measuring Cylinder.

o   Pipette.

Process Description:

                At first, we need to collect PC blended pre-treated fabric. Then we first dye the polyester
part of the fabric with disperse dye here we used carrier method so 100°C is enough for dyeing
polyester part. Then we dye the cotton part of the fabric with reactive dye here the temperature we
used 60°C then some hot wash and cold rinsing is done to remove excessive dye molecule from the
fabric surface.  

Precautions:

o   Taking chemicals as per recipe provided by the Instructor.

o   Taking every weight of chemicals carefully.

o   Observe the shade carefully to achieve tone effect.

5. Result & Discussion:

Sample Attachment:

Discussion: Here we observed the fabric absorbed dyes very well and we are able to achieve our
desired tone effect in case of both type of fibre.

6. Conclusion & Comments: By doing this experiment we have learned about the dyeing of PC
blended fabric with respectively by reactive and disperse dyes. Here we able to achieve our desired
tone effect.
