Name of the Experiment :  Tie Dyeing of 100% polyester woven fabric with disperse dye to produce combined shade(High Temperature).

Introduction :
Disperse dyes can be used with various techniques and will readily colour synthetics such as polyester, nylon, cellulose acetate, viscose, synthetic velvets and PVC. They can also be used to colour plastic buttons and fastenings. Their effect is less potent on polyester, due to the molecular structure, allowing only pastel through to medium shades.  Polyester fibre contains pores or canals within its structure which, when heated to 100°C, expand to allow particles of the dyes to enter. The expansion of the pores is limited by the heat of the water industrial dyeing of polyester is carried out at 130°C in pressurised equipment. Tie-dyeing is one of the post-weaving physical resist-dyeing techniques using binding and compression to create patterning in textiles. 


Objective :
Ø  To learn about tie dyeing process of polyester woven fabric by disperse dye.
Ø  To tie dye polyester fabric by disperse dye.
Ø  To make a combined shade using red, yellow, blue color substances.
Ø  To write a report according to the experiment.

Function of Chemicals :

            Levelling Agent:  
Ø  Control of the exhaustion dye so that it is taken up evenly.

            Dispersing Agent:
Ø  It increases the solubility of disperse dyes in water.
Ø   It assists in the process of particle size reduction of dye.
            Disperse Dye: 
Ø  Main substances to produce color.
           
           
            Acetic Acid:
Ø  Disperse dyeing required acidic medium, acetic acid control the pH of the dye bath.

Calculation :
        Total Liquor:              Material Weight X L        { M:L }
                                                = 5gm X 40
                                                = 200 mL
       Levelling Agent: =  (200 X 1)/(1% X 1000) mL   
        =  20mL

Dispersing agent:     =  (200 X 1)/(1% X 1000) mL  
           =   20mL

Disperse Red:      = (5 X 1%)/(1%) mL  
      =  5 mL 

Disperse Yellow: = (5 X 0.5%)/(1%) mL  
         =  2.5 mL

Disperse Blue: = (5 X 0.5%)/(1%) mL  
       =  2.5 mL

Acetic Acid: = 1ml

Initial Water :  = Total Liquor - (chemicals)
   = 200 - (20+20+5+2.5+2.5+1)mL
   = 149mL
