Lab No. 02

Reactive dyeing
Objective: In this lab, learn about the procedure and solution of reactive dyeing and softener.

Experimental Procedure:
1. Take fresh water in a beaker = 200ml

2. Taken these chemicals of given ratio and dissolve it into water(200ml).

Water = 200ml

Nacl= 12g/200ml std. 60g/l

Na2Co3= 6g/200ml std.30g/l

Urea= 2g/200ml std.10g/l (maintain the moisture of dye)

Ant migrating agent = 2g/200ml std.10g/l

Wetting agent = 0.4g/200ml std.2g/l

Squatting agent= 0.6g/200ml std.3g/l

Color Shade 2%

3. Take dye with respect to liquor ratio

Dye = 4g (shade 2% and water 300ml =.02*200= 6)

dye is also dissolved in above chemical mix water.

4. Load these dye mixers to Pad-thermosol dyeing machine (TC-M-31).

 5. A bleached piece 0f fabric passed through the roller of Pad-thermosol dyeing machine (TC-M-31)
at temperature 150C, fabric piece taken 2 minutes for completion of work. Now the fabric is
died.

For dye fixation:

6. Take fresh water another beaker = 200ml

7. Take Soda ash = 4g/200ml and dissolved in water. (std. 20g/l)

Add dyed fabric into soda ash solution.

8. Now, passed this fabric through pad machine roller for dye fixation at 158C.

For softener:

Take fresh water = 200ml

9. Take softener = 10g/200ml and dissolved in water (std. 50g/l)

Dissolved the dyed fabric into softener water.

10. At last, passed this fabric through pad machine for drying at 120C for 2 mins.

Observations:
Fabric hand feel is good

Color shade is ok.
