RATIONALE
Fibres are the basic raw materials for the manufacture of yarns and fabrics. The ultimate property of
a yarn or fabric depends on the property of the fibre in it. Therefore, it is important to study the
fibre properties. Different fibres exhibit different physical and chemical properties. This is due to a
number of factors like the material of the fibre, its molecular structure and length and the amount of
draft applied to it during its spinning.
Fabrics made from different fibres and their blends are put to specific uses such as summer wear,
winter wear, industrial wear etc., depending on their particular properties.
Therefore it is very important for a textile student to study the science of fibres and the technology
of extraction of natural fibres and the manufacture of man made fibres.

Preparatory processes such as de-sizing, scouring, bleaching and mercerizing help to improve
absorbency and feel of the fabric. These processes prepare the fabric ready for dyeing, printing and
finishing. This course Dyeing is the important process to provide aesthetic feel to the textile fabric
which are made from natural, regenerated and synthetic fibres and their blends. So studying the
different methods and mechanism of dyeing techniques, construction and working of different
dyeing machines and various types of dyes available in the market for the above referred fibres are
must for the students.

Printing is one of the important processes which require high degree of skill and perfection. Any
defective execution cannot be corrected easily. A thorough knowledge on various styles of printing
and their application techniques is needed. Finishing is the important process to provide value
addition and functional value to the textile fabric which are made from natural, regenerated and
synthetic fibres and their blends. So studying the different types of finishing techniques and various
types of machines used to carry out the process are very much important for the textile technicians
to increase the sale value of the garments.
OBJECTIVES
At the end of the course, the students will be able to
 Learn the principles of printing and functions of various ingredients of printing paste.
 Acqiure knowledge on various styles of printing, machineries and its merits and demerits
 Understand the working of transfer printing and garment printing machines
