DYEING
The application and fixing of a 
dye to a substrate, normally with 
the intention of obtaining an 
even distribution through out the 
substrate.
There are three types of dyeing : 
1. Fibre dyeing. 
2. Yarn dyeing. 
3. Fabric dyeing: 
a) Woven dyeing. 
b) Knit dyeing.

According to method of application: 
 Direct dye 
 Reactive dye 
 Vat dye 
 Azoic dye 
 Sulphur dye 
 Basic dye 
 Acid dye 
 Disperse dye
According to the chemical structure: 
 Azo dye 
 Indigoid dye 
 Anthraquinone dye 
 Polymethine dye 
 Styryl dye 
 Nitro & nitroso dye 
 Phthalo cyanine dye 
 Aryl carbonium dye
 Wetting agent 
 Detergent 
 Sequestering agent 
 Leveling agent 
 Anti foaming agent 
 Dispersing agent 
 Anti creasing agent 
 carrier
Two types of dye application techniques exist: 
1) Direct application of dye liquor by spraying, 
foam application, or printing. 
2) Continuous immersion of the fabric in a dye 
bath and removal of the excess of liquor by 
squeezing or suction (padding).
1.Continuous dyeing processes 
 Pad dry process 
 Pad steam process 
2.Semi continuous processes 
 Pad-batch process 
 Pad jig process 
3.Discontinous process: 
 Winch 
 Jet 
 Jigger 
4.Pad Dyeing Processes: 
 Pad roll process
The goal of every dyeing is a colored textile in the 
desired shade, homogeneous in hue and depth of 
shade, produced by an economic process and 
which exhibits satisfactory fastness properties in 
the finished state.
Basically there are three methods of dyeing 
textiles: 
1) Mass dyeing: dyeing of a synthetic polymer 
before fiber formation. 
2) Pigment dyeing: affixing an insoluble colorant 
on the fiber surface with a binder. 
3) Exhaustion dyeing from an aqueous bath with 
dyes that have an affinity for the fiber.
 The liquor ratio influences the dye solubility and 
the strength of the electrolyte effect. Lower liquor 
ratios are employed whenever possible, for 
ecological, economic, and technical reasons. 
 The electrolyte (i.e., sodium chloride or sodium 
sulfate), its concentration, and the speed of 
addition control the adsorptive behavior of the 
dyes and the degree of exhaustion. A high 
electrolyte content of the dye bath shifts the 
dyeing equilibrium toward the fiber.
 The pH value influences solubility, 
substantively of the dyes, and their stability 
in the dye bath. Lower pH values improve 
exhaustion; however, leveling proceeds 
preferably at higher pH values. 
 Temperature generally determines the 
position of the dyeing equilibrium, which at 
room temperature is shifted strongly 
toward adsorption on the fiber.
Colored textiles are produced today on a 
large industrial scale. Although modern 
automation techniques have been 
introduced for color measurement, 
metering of dyes and auxiliaries, and 
automatic control of the dyeing process.
We would like to express many thanks to our 
honorable teacher Prof. Dr. Zulhash Uddin 
giving us a very good opportunity for 
presenting ourselves. We also thanks our 
parents who encouraged us every step of our 
life. Lastly thanks all of you who are give 
kind attention for this presentation 
ceremony .
