Effect of Dye Dispersion Preparation on Disperse Dyeing Performance on Polyester Fabric

Abstract:

The effect of dye dispersion preparation prior to dyeing on the dyeing ability of the disperse dye on polyester fabric was studied. The influence of sodium laurylsulphate (SLS) concentrations and the homogenization process was determined. The optimum SLS concentration for dyeing observed in this study was 0.01 M. The color yield of the dye passing through the homogenization process on polyester fabric was higher than that from the conventional dye preparation. Homogenization was also found to enhance disperse dyeability at a lower dyeing temperature. It infers that the dyeing process could be done at a lower temperature. The dyeing temperature could be as low as 110oC in the presence of homogenization. The effect of homogenization on the dyeability at different dyeing times was also examined.
