Name of the experiment: Dying of Cotton fabric with Azoic Dye.

Introduction:

The dyes containing insoluble azo group (‐N=N‐) are known as azoic dyes. These dyes are
not found in readymade form. Azoic dyes are produced by a reaction between two
components.
The components are:
 Coupling Compound ( Naphthol)
 Di‐azo–compound or diazobase or diazosalt.
The colored substance formed from this colorless compound is insoluble in water and
washing fastness of this shade is excellent.

Object:

 To dye a material practically.

 To observe the practical advantages and disadvantages of this dye.
 To compare the theoretical idea with practical experiment.

Chemistry of dyeing:

Dyeing process of azoic dyes includes three main stages. They are-

1. Naphtholation
Naphthols are insoluble in water and converted into soluble form by treating
with alkali. The fabric is in pregnated with ß-naphthol and NaOH solution and
converted into ß-Naphthol Na-ß-Naphtholate.
2. Diazotisation
A base containing amino group reacts with sodium nitrite to a solution of the

hydro chloride of the base in the presence of excess of HCl at 0°-5°C.

3. Coupling
The impregnated material is treated in a bath containing diazonium solution to
carry out coupling and azoic colour is produced.

Recipe for Naptholation:

• ß-Napthol= 10% owf

• NaOH= 5 gm/l
• NaCl= 20gm/l
• Wetting agent= 1gm/l
• M:L = 1:30
• Temperature= 30°-40° C
• Time= 20 minute

Calculation:

Given fabric= 5gm

Total liquor= 5×30=150ml
ß-Napthol= 5×(10/100)= .5
gm NaOH= (150×5)/1000= .75
gm NaCl=(150×20)/1000= 3
gm
Wetting agent= (150×1×100)/(1000×5)=3 ml
Additional water=150-3=147 ml

Recipe for Diazotisation:

 Base color=10%
 HCl= 2cc/l
 NaNO2=3gm/l
 CH3COOH=.25cc/l
 CH3-COONa= .3gm/l

Calculation:

Base color=(150×10×100)/(1000×2)= 75cc

HCl= (150×2×100)/(1000×5)= 6 cc NaNO2=
(150×3×100)/(1000×5)=9 cc
CH3COOH= (150×.25×100)/(1000×5)= .75 cc
CH3-COONa= (150×.3×100)/(1000×5)= .9 cc
Additional water= 150-(75+6+9+0.75+.9) cc
=150-91.65= 58.35 cc cold water
Working Procedur:

Naphthol preparation:
 At first, according to calculation, sufficient amount of distilled water was taken in dye bath.
 Then required amount of naptholin, alkali, wetting agent, and common salt was
taken in the dye bath and stirred to make soluble.
 Then then sample fabric was immersed in the solution for 20 minutes.

Base colour preparation:

 At first, ice water was taken in dye bath.

 The required amount of base colour, HCl, acetic acid, sodium acetate,Sodium

nitrate are added in a bath.

Development:

Then the squeezed fabrics are mixed in the bath of base colour and the magic
colour Red is obtained.

After treatment:
 After dyeing operation is completed the dye material is put into a bath
containing hot wash.
 The material is treated with a 1g/L soap solution, which removes the unfixed
dye from fabric surface, and makes the surface clean.
 Then material is treated with a cold-water bath.
 Finally the material is dried in a drier.
