8 Remove impurities (both natural and/or those addedduring production) from the fibers.
8 Improve the ability of the fibers to absorb water solutions of dyes and chemicals.
8 Impart the proper brightness or whiteness to fibers
according to need, especially when brilliant or certain pastel shades are desired, and
8 Impart dimensional stability to thermoplastic textile
materials.

8 The importance of adequate and uniform preparationprior to dyeing cannot be overemphasized. Improper removal of impurities can lead to unlevel dyeing,streakiness, and poor penetration.
8 It is estimated that more than 60% of faulty dyeingare the result of improper preparation.
8 Preparation procedures may vary greatly from onefiber type to another. While natural fiber usuallyrequire extensive scouring and bleaching, syntheticfibers may need only a mild scouring.

8 Removes superficial hairiness from yarns, lint, looseyarns, and surface dirt from the face of the fabric andtherefore provides more even surface for dyeing.
8 It also reduces formation of pills, or balls of fiber, onthe fabric.
8 After the surface of the fabric is raised by brushing,
the protruding fiber ends are burned off by thesingeing process. In this process the fabric is passedthrough the small gas flame.
8 Note: Consumers may detect increased pilling inimproperly singed Cotton fabrics. When Cottonblends are singed, care must be taken to avoidoverheating the thermoplastic fibers.

8 Prior to weaving, Cotton warp yarns are coated withsizing materials to provide them with additionalstrength, and resistance to abrasion. The mostcommon sizing materials used are different kinds of starches, and various grades of partially hydrolyzedpolyvinyl alcohol.
8 Enzymes are often used for the effective removal of starches.
8 The main advantage of enzyme desizing is that thereis no risk of damaging the fibers. However, enzymaticdesizing is relatively expensive since it can not becombined with other preparatory operations.
Preparation1 Desizing

8 This cleaning treatment, often referred to as alkali boil-off, removes most of the Cottons impurities, whichincludes natural and other impurities as well as sizingresidues that were not removed during desizing.
8 In scouring the fabric is treated with a strong alkalisolutions, close to or above the boil, for 1-2hours. Ahot rinse is needed to remove the emulsifiedimpurities. The final rinse may include a small amountof acetic acid if the fabric has to be neutralized.
8 Manmade fibers, especially those that have beenheavily treated with spinning oils, are occasionallyscoured with solvents.

8 The purpose of Bleaching is to provide a uniform whitesurface on a fabric. It is chemical oxidation thatdestroys the colored impurities present.
8 Control of whiteness of bleached fabric is important towet processing that follow.
8 Hydrogen Peroxide is the chemical most commonlyused today for bleaching Cotton compared to SodiumChlorite
8 Open Width Method and Rope Method : Open widthmethod is widely used method especially whenbleaching blends of Cotton with heat-sensitive fibers inorder to avoid crease marks and other defects caused
by treating fabrics in the rope form.

8 Two Types:1) Tension Mercerization
The purpose of mercerization is to increase luster of Cotton fibers
The fiber untwists and swells, lumen becomes rounder incross-section and it gains luster. Dye affinity and chemicalreactivity increase. Fabric becomes stronger andsmoother.
2) Slack Mercerization
Not as lustrous as tension method Elongation and recovery properties improve and thus have
been used to produce comfort stretch garments and fabricbandages, which need to conform to body shapes.

8 Heat-setting or thermosetting is a heat treatment appliedto fabrics made of thermoplastic fibers such as polyester or Nylon to impart dimensional stability.
8 Heat-setting affects the dye-ability of the fiber. Usually itdecreases its dye-ability, and therefore when performedbefore dyeing it is extremely important to apply the heat-
setting uniformly.8 Uneven temperatures in the oven may cause differences in
the fabric from selvage to selvage and/or from selvage tocenter which will show later as unlevel dyeing.

8 There are several different ways by which coloringmaterials are classified.
8 Classification of dyes by the method of application is
the most common one, which are: Acid dyes (Protein fibers, polyamides etc)
Basic dyes (Acrylics, Basic dye-able polyester, etc)
Direct dyes (Cellulosics, and some others)
Azoic dyes (Cellulosics)
Vat dyes (Cellulosics)
Reactive Dyes (Cellulosics)

8 General Principles and Terms Met in Dyeing1) Dye Exhaustion This describes how much of the total
dye applied resides on the fiber rather than in the dye
liquor 2) Equilibrium This is when the final or equilibrium
degree of exhaustion has been reached. If the dyeing isallowed to proceed under the same conditions for a
longer time, the shade of the dyed goods will remain thesame.
3) Levelness and Leveling Power - levelness depends on: Liquor ratio The leveling power increase as the LR
increases as there is more dye in the bath Substantivity Low substantivity favors leveling
Temperature Higher temperature give more level dyeing
Time Longer times give more level dyeing

8 Reactive Dyeing The reactive dyes are water-soluble anionic dyes, which
react with hydroxyl groups of cellulose to becomecovalently bonded to the fiber
The chemical reaction between a reactive dye and acellulose fiber takes place in the presence of a base and
can be summarized as follows
Offers bright colors with very good colorfastness,(particularly good washfastness and excellent lightfastness).
Susceptible to damage from chlorine bleaches

8 The Vat dyes are insoluble organic compoundsthat are not substantive to cellulose.The following steps are involved in dyeing:1) Reduction (Vatting): Prior to dyeing they are converted
to their soluble form (leuco soluble vat dye) by means of reduction in the presence of a strong base.
2) Dyeing: In this soluble form, they are substantive tocellulosic fibers, and can be applied to them.
3) Oxidation: Once inside the fibers, uniformly distributed,
the Vat dyes are then oxidized and converted back totheir original insoluble form.
4) Soaping: to achieve a stable shade.

8 Sulfur dyes are insoluble in water and their applicationto cellulosic fibers resembles that of the Vat dyes inprinciple. They are relatively low in cost.
8 Traditionally they were used for dark shades (browns,blacks and navy blues) but some of the newer dyes areavailable in bright colors .
8 Sulphur dyes (if applied incorrectly) on material stored at
higher than normal room temperature and in presence of moisture tend to oxidize to form strong sulfuric acids.These acids will then cause tendering of cellulose fibers.To prevent tendering, the final rinse is carried out withmild alkali solutions.
8 Sulfur dyed fabrics have good colorfastness to washingbut are sensitive to chlorine bleaching. Lightfastness isonly fair but is adequate for most end uses not requiringprolonged sunlight exposure.

8 Direct dyes are soluble anionic dyes.8 The Direct dyes are so called because they were the first
dyes to dye cellulosic fibers directly without the need for a
pre-treatment of the fibers with a mordant.8 The mechanisms by which direct dyes become attached to
cellulose is assumed to be through the formation of a largenumber of weak attractions between the dye and the fiber.
8 Direct dyes exhibit relatively good colorfastness tosunlight, and some are considered to have excellentlightfastness. However colorfastness to washing is poor
and therefore not appropriate for frequently washedapparel.
8 The problem of poor washfastness can be improved to
some degree by formaldehyde after treatment.

8 The disperse dyes are non-ionic aromatic compoundswith an extremely low solubility in water.
8 Disperse dyes require special fabric preparation for
uniform application . Dyeing procedure for Polyester fiber include ;
1) Low temperature dyeing with dye-carrier
2) High Temperature/High Pressure Dyeing3) Continuous dyeing by the thermosol process
8 Extremely colorfast to laundering. Good colorfastness to
light and dry cleaning. But dyes may sublime( evaporates)when exposed to high temperature in pressing.8 Fume fading is a problem with disperse dyes. It is not
unusual to see acetate linings turn pink after storage in anarea with gas heat.

8 Union Dyeing In union dyeing, the components of a blend are dyed
with the same shade to obtain a solid color.
Dyes must be carefully selected and properly appliedto ensure color uniformity.
Union dyeing can be applied by two methods: One-bath (single dye) and Two-bath (double dye) methods.
Polyester/Cotton intimate blends are often dyed withthese methods.
Two-bath method offers better result onPolyester/Cotton blends compared to One-bathmethod.
One-bath method is cheaper than Two-bath method.

8 Cross Dyeing
The method of obtaining a multi-color effect on a blend
is referred to as Cross-Dyeing. In cross dyeing, a fabric containing two or more fiber
types or fiber variants is purposely dyed so that eachfiber type or variant accepts a different type of dye andbecomes a different color.
The end product depends on the fiber arrangement inthe fabric. It may be a check, a plaid, a tweed, a stripe, a
muted color, a heather effect, or some other design.

8 Advantages Pigment coloration is economical because of limited
number of processing steps.
Blends can be dyed a uniform shade with one operationapplicable to all fibers.
Pigment coloration has an extensive color range and
high light fastness. Pigment coloration has satisfactory washfastness.
8 The possibility of combining dyeing and finishing
exists with pigment coloration. Products must beselected so that finish and binder react under same conditions of pH and/or temperature.

8 Disadvantages
Heavy shades crock badly. Light shades may wet crock.
Pigment coloration is normally applied by padding.
Pigment adversely affects hand. The large amount of binder required may stiffen fabric. This is most noticeable on very
thin fabrics. Pigment coloration may have sticking or buildup on pad
rolls.
Migration (uneven coloration) may occur if drying is variableor pickup is high.

8 Optical brighteners, also called FluorescentBrighteners or Fluorescent Brightening Agents (FBA)are colorless dyes that work by emitting visible lightwhen exposed to invisible ultra-violet light.
8 They are used to make white or light-colored fabricsappear brighter. Mostly bleached white fabrics aretreated with these brighteners.
8 Fabrics and garments that are truly prepared for dyeing should not contain brighteners. Opticalbrighteners can interfere with some dyes bycompeting for the "dye sites" on the fibers.

8 Screen Printing
This printing involves coating of a screen fabric (madeof nylon, polyester, or metal tightly mounted on awooden or metal frame) with an opaque nonporous filmwith the design areas cut out of it.
The screen is placed on top of the fabric, print paste is
poured into the frame and forced through the mesh. The dye can then pass through the fine mesh and coat
the fabric only in the areas of the design.
Each color requires its own screen and separateapplication of color. Also each color of the designmust be precisely located on the screen so that itbecomes properly placed and printed.

8 Consists of a bed or vacuum table thatholds the substrate in place duringprinting, a carriage that holds theprinting screen, and a squeegee.
8 Printing takes place in three steps.
First, ink is poured on the screen, andthe screen is moved into position over the substrate. Then the squeegee ispressed against the mesh and drawnover the image area to push ink through
the open areas of the screen onto thesubstrate. Finally, the screen is liftedaway from the substrate.

complete curing. Failure to follow proper curing guidelineswill result in an under Cure of the print and therefore willcause poor washfastness, and/or a resistance to abrasion.
8 The performance of plastisol can be affected by additionof additives such as Extenders, plasticizers, reducers andresins.
8 Problems such as fading, pulling away and/or crackingcan occur if additives are used properly.
8 If not cured properly, phthalates (a commonly usedplasticizer) could cause skin irritation.

8 Metallic inks are simply finely ground metal and/or plastic flakes that are suspended in a clear plastisolbase.
8 can be used as accents in a design or as the entireprint.
8 One of the biggest problems with metallics is that
some brands that use metal flakes dull and tarnishbadly after the first washing but small plastic flakethat doesn't tarnish
8 A popular technique to improve the washability andbrightness of metallic prints is to add 5% nylon
jacket bonding agent to the mixture. This helps sealthe metal particles and minimize the tarnishing.

Glitter ink is made up of small mylar flakes that aresuspended in a clear plastisol base.8 Comes in wide variety of colors ranging from your basic
silver and gold, to more vivid green, purple, cherry and
more.8 Because of the size of the glitter particle, this ink is not
designed for detailed prints. It works best as a highlight inkfor a design that need a little glitz. It works well on both lightand dark shirts because the glitter flake makes the ink veryopaque.
8 The clear base of the glitter mixture will need to be cured just like a normal plastisol except the ink deposit is so thickthat a longer tunnel time is very important.
8 Glitter washes very good and will flake just a little. Unlikemetallic ink that will dull, glitter retains it's brilliancebecause the flake is mylar and does not tarnish like somemetallics.

8 Heat-Transfer Printing This is also called thermal transfer printing.
In this method the design is first printed on
paper with printing inks containingdisperse dyes.
The printed paper (called transfer paper) isplaced on the fabric and passed through
heat-transfer printing machine at about400F. Under this temperature, the dye onthe paper sublimates and is transferredonto the fabric.
Disperse dyes is the only class of dyes thatcan be sublimated and used for thismethod of printing.

done, the design is applied by screen or roller with a chemical whichremoves the color of the originally dyed fabric. Discharge prints can
be made with rollers and screen methods. They are not widely usedbecause production costs are high.

Finishing that Changes Appearance, Drapability and Hand Parchmentizing A finishing process to give cellulosic fabrics such
characteristics as transparency, linen-like hand, and texture .The fabric is immersed briefly in an acid bath under controlled conditions and then quickly neutralized. Thisfinish is most effective on mercerized cotton.
Softening Softening agents are frequently used to improve the hand and
drape of fabric . The most commonly used softeners are oils,fats, wax emulsions, soaps and synthetic detergents, andsilicone compounds. Silicone compounds produce relativelydurable softening .
Stiffening Some fabrics need to be made stiffer and more crisp than
they would otherwise be in order to meet an intended enduse. Stiffening may be done by any of several chemicalfinishes, all applied by pad and either dried or cured. Starchis widely used but starch finishes are temporary.

This is a permanent finish , produced on cotton by thetreatment of sodium hydroxide to produce a puckered or crinkled fabric . Sodium hydroxide is printed on the fabric inthe form of paste and the fabric shrinks only where thepaste is applied. Acetate, rayon, and manufactured fabrics
with a puckered effect can be produced by chemicaltreatment or heat setting.
Embossing
This is a process to produce a raised design or pattern inrelief on fabrics by passing the cloth between hot engravedrollers that press the design into the fabric. In thermoplasticfabrics (polyester, nylon) embossing is permanent. In other fabrics, resin finishes are used to create a durable effect.

Finishing that Alter Fabric Luster Calendering
A finishing process producing a flat, glossy, and smooth surface by passing the fabric under pressurebetween cylinders. The greater the heat and pressure,the higher the luster. Calender finishes include cir,glazing, moir, and schreinering.
Cir
Cir is a highly polished fabric produced by impregnating the fabric with wax or a thermoplastic material and then passing it through friction rollers.The resultant fabric is highly lustrous and takes on apopular wet look. When thermoplastic fiber fabricsare cir finished, the fabric becomes moderately water repellent due to flattening and partial fusing of fibers.

A process that produces a smooth, high polish on thesurface of the fabric. The material is treated with variousmaterials including starch, paraffin, and shellac. Threerollers are used; the center roll is cotton-padded or paper,and the other two are metal. The metal rolls operate at avery high speed, and the other roll turns more slowly. Thepolish is created by the friction of the rolls .
Moir A moir finish is characterized by a soft luster and an
optical effect , which is created by interference between lightrays reflected from the crushed and uncrushed parts of the
fabric. Two layers of identical fabric are placed face to faceand then subjected to heat and pressure whereby a patternof parallel lines formed by the weft yarns of each fabric isimpressed upon the weft yarns of the opposing fabric .

This finish provides garments with shape retention,durable pleats and pressed creases, durably smoothseams, and wrinkle resistance.
There are two methods:1) post-cure technique in which the garment rather than
the fabric is cured and heat-set after construction or
2) flat or precured technique in which the piece goodsare finished and cured. Almost all fabrics for durablepress are blends of cellulosic fibers and polyester.

8 Finishing that Enhance Care Properties Soil Release
A finish that increases the absorbency of a fabric, and which makes it easier to remove soil and stains inwashing. This finish (1) allows the stain to leave thefabric faster; (2) increases wicking action for greater comfort; (3) makes fabric dry-cleanable; and (4)maintains brightness after repeated laundering.
Stain- and Soil-resistant Finishes
Stain- and soil-resistant finishes resist staining. Stain-and soil-resistant finishes reduce the rate of soil
deposition on a fabric either by creating an electriccharge that repels the soil or by producing a smoothsurface to which soil will not adhere. Fabrics treatedwith such finishes are therefore easily cleaned.

8 Finishing that Alter Durability Abrasion-resistant Finish
Abrasion resistance can be imparted by an acrylic resin;
however, some resins are too soft to be effective andsome are too hard and introduce brittleness to the fabric.These resins bind the fibers more firmly to the yarns.Some fiber such as nylon have inherent resistance toabrasion. Abrasion-resistant finishes are used on fabrics
subject to prolonged abrasive wear such as pockets,waistband lining, and hatbands .
Slip-resistant Finishes
Finishes applied to a fabric to reduce or eliminate yarnslippage and reduce seam fraying are called antislip, slip- resistant, or nonslip finishes. Products such as rosins(they have poor washfastness), colloidal dispersions of silica (they reduce surface smoothness but are notdurable), and formaldehyde resins (they are durable) arecommonly used.

Relaxation ShrinkageThis occurs because the fibers and yarns are under tensionwhen the fabrics are made. Later when the fabric is wet in atensionless condition, relaxation occurs.
Progressive ShrinkageThis occurs each time a fabric is laundered. Unlikerelaxation shrinkage which occurs only once, progressiveshrinkage continues and the fabric shrinks a bit more with
each laundering. Of the major fibers, only wool and viscoserayon are subject to progressive shrinkage .

8 The factors that control shrinkage in fabrics or garments are: Construction: A tighter fabric construction reduces
potential shrinkage
Yarn twist: Optimum twist (based on yarn size) is veryimportant for controlling shrinkage and torque.
Type of Weave or Knit: Pain weave of Jersey knit show
more resistance to shrinkage than other types. Tension During Sewing of Garments: Uneven or too much
sewing tension can lead to differential shrinkage causingpuckering in the seam areas.
Stability of Fiber and Yarns: Improper stabilization couldlead to excessive shrinkage especially in blends wheresynthetic fiber shrinks differentially than the cellulosicfibers.

Used for woolen and worsted fabrics; it consists of thoroughly wetting the fabric with water or steam andallowing the material to dry slowly in a relaxed tensionlessstate. This does not make wool washable or shrink-proof;it permits wool to be steam pressed or caught in rainwithout severe shrinking.
Resin Treatments (Relaxation Method )
Used for fabrics of rayon and cotton; it involvesimpregnating rayon and cotton with resins and then curing
which stabilizes the fabric and thus reduces its tendencyto distort. Resins also provide crease resistance. It ispreferable to hand wash resin treated rayon fabrics.

The principle behind this ability is that yarnsrather than fabric are coated with repellent chemicals.Water repellent finishes can be non-durable, durable, andrenewable.The principle types include wax emulsions,
resins (renewable), silicone compounds (durable), andzirconium compounds (non-durable).
Waterproof Finishes These are finishes that resist wetting and the penetration
of water. Waterproof fabrics are generally woven tightlyand coated with rubber, plastic (usually vinyl), linseedoil, cellulose esters, or other compounds. Fabrics arenon-permeable to air, possess a firm non-drapable handand are not comfortable as wearing apparel.

8 Finishing that Provide Environmental Protection Antimicrobial Finish
They are applied to fabrics to prevent growth of
microorganisms . They thereby control the spread of disease and reduce the danger of infection; help to inhibitthe development of unpleasant odors from perspiration andother soils; and reduce damage to fabrics from mildew-producing fungi and rot-producing bacteria. These finishes
may be durable or renewable. Pacificate and Sanitizedare two well known trademarks for this finish.
Fume Fading Inhibitors Some colors fade, particularly disperse dyes on acetate,
caused by exposure to oxides of nitrogen in theatmosphere. Simple alkaline substances such as borax aresometimes used as after-treatments, but they are notpermanent.

8 Finishing that Provide Environmental Protection Metallic and Plastic Coatings
Metallic and plastic coatings are applied to the back of
fabrics. Aluminum coatings, modify the warmth andcoolness of fabrics, are used for drapery lining. Plasticcoatings help reduce the amount of soil that penetratesthe fabric and delay the passage of heat through thefabric. One problem with coatings are they may peel or
crack off the substrate. Mothproofing Finish
Moth larvae and carpet beetles are known to attackanimal-fiber fabrics. Mothproofing is a chemical that is
added to the dyebath during dyeing of wool fabrics.Treated wool fabrics and silk fabrics are less susceptibleto damage by moths and other insects. Finishes basedon pyrethroids and pyrimidines are among the mostsuccessful products used for mothproofing.
