Exhaust Dyes

  • Cost-effectiveness, excellent build-up.
  • Excellent levelling properties.
  • Excellent fastness properties
  • Reliable reproducibility.

Recipe

  • X % A P Industries apazol Dyes
  • 0.5-1 g/l Dispersing Agent
  • y g/l Salt
  • Z g/l Alkali

General Instructions

  • Soft or deminerilised process water should normally be used. (<40 dH hardness) The pH should be almost neutral.
  • Either common salt or glauber's salt can be used. Since this can reduce the color yield it s best to switch to a better quality salt in such cases.
  • Caustic soda, soda ash and blends of soda ash/sodium bocarbonate are used to fix the dyestuffs. The type and amount of alkali required varies for different type of dyeing methods.
  • Sequestering agents are used to reduce water hardness and make complexitis with free heavy metal ions.

General Method

Green and Turquoise Shade dyeing temperature is 800C and the temperature must be raused very slowly.For green and Turquoise shades,only Glauber's salt is recommended.

Constant Temperature Method

Washing

To obtain optimum wet fastness properties, all unfixed dyestuffs has to be removed from the fibres. The first after treatment phase geared primarily to reducing the concentration of electrolyles and alkali. The number of rinse baths are depending upon depth of shade, liquor ratio and liquor retention on capacity of the goods.

  • Cold rinsing
  • Neutralization (0.5 g/l acetic acid (50%), 40-500C, 5-10 min.)
  • Hot rinsing ( 1 g/l Soaping agent, 980C, 10 min. )
  • Hot rinsing ( 950C, 5-10 min. )
  • Hot rinsing ( 700C, 5-10 min. )
  • Cold rinsing ( 20-300C, 5-10 min. )

Improving Wet Fastness

  • Fixing Agent : 1.2 g/l
  • Fixing temperature : 40-500C
  • Fixing time : 20 min
  • pH value : 4-5

Abbreviation

  • H : High
  • M : Moderate
  • L : Low
  • A : Dischargeable
  • B : Still Sufficiently Dischargeable
  • C : Less Chargeable

Redyeing

  • Shading dyes are closed into the liquor continuously or in parts. The bath is then held for 15-30 min before sampling the shade again.
  • When dyeing goods with pale shades, half of the dyebath should be drained and replaced with cold water. However, for every additional shading procedure, 1/4 of the original amount of chemical liquor must be added to the bath.
  • For shading additions of 20-30%, the bath must be drained completely. The shading dye is then applied from a fresh bath with proportionals amounts of salt and alkali.
