Basic chemicals used in wet processing like acids, bases, salts, oxidizing and reducing agents are also discussed. The roles and examples of various chemicals are provided in concise points.
The document discusses anti-static finishes that are applied to synthetic fabrics during processing to prevent the buildup of static charge. Synthetic fabrics are not good conductors and develop static charges during spinning, weaving, and finishing. This can cause fabrics to become entangled or attract dirt. Anti-static finishes reduce the surface charge and increase conduction, using chemicals like silicone emulsions, polyethylene emulsions, and polyammonium quaternary salts. The finish can be durable or non-durable. Higher moisture regain in fibers also helps dissipate static. Common application methods are exhaustion and pad-dry-cure.
The document discusses various methods for dyeing polyester fibers, including:
1) Batch dyeing without carriers involves dyeing at a boil without additives to help penetration.
2) Carrier dyeing uses compounds to swell the fibers and allow deeper dye penetration.
3) High temperature, high pressure (HTHP) dyeing penetrates dye rapidly at over 120°C without carriers.
4) Continuous thermosol dyeing involves padding, drying, and fixing dye within fibers at 190-220°C.
Softening finishes are important textile treatments that make fabrics feel softer. Chemical softeners allow fabrics to have a soft, smooth hand. The main types of softeners are cationic, anionic, non-ionic, and amphoteric softeners. Cationic softeners provide excellent softening but can cause yellowing, while anionic softeners have lower softening ability but better compatibility. Silicone softeners provide unique softness and properties like durability and heat stability, but can be expensive. Softener selection depends on the desired properties like fastness, compatibility with other chemicals, and effect on processes like seam slippage or drying.

Compared to alkaline scouring, bio-scouring is more environmentally friendly as it uses less energy, water, chemicals and time, and produces less effluent. While it cannot remove all waxes and is sensitive to process conditions, bio
Desizing is the process of removing starch sizes from warp yarns after weaving. The key methods are rot steeping, acidic desizing using dilute acid, enzymatic desizing using starch-hydrolyzing enzymes, and oxidative desizing using oxidizing agents. Rot steeping is the oldest method but is slow, while enzymatic desizing is now widely used as it efficiently removes sizes under mild conditions without damaging fibers. Acidic and oxidative desizing can also work but may damage fibers if not properly controlled. The Tegewa violet scale is commonly used to assess desizing efficiency by checking for color changes from starch residues on fabrics.
Soil release finishes are applied to fabrics to make soil particles easier to remove during washing. The finish allows soil to detach from the fabric surface rather than becoming redeposited. Soil release finishes are important for synthetic fabrics and ladies' wear that are prone to absorbing soil. The finish must not negatively impact the fabric's properties or fastness. Methods for applying soil release finishes include mercerization, application of film-forming compounds, fiber conversion, and use of silicones or acrylic polymers. The appropriate process depends on the fiber and may involve padding, drying, and curing chemicals.
Leveling agents are chemicals that help promote even dye distribution on fabrics during dyeing. They work by slowing the initial dye uptake to allow more uniform absorption over time. Leveling agents are classified as anionic, cationic, or non-ionic depending on their ionic nature, and include compounds like fatty acids, alcohols, and alkyl aryl sulphonates. Their effectiveness is tested by measuring factors like strike percentage and active content to evaluate uniformity. Careful selection of leveling agent type and concentration is needed to control dye exhaustion for consistent color without compromising yield.

Dyeing of fabric blends such as Polyester/Cotton (P/C) is presently done with two
chemically different classes of dyes namely disperse for polyester and reactive for cotton, in
two bath process. Experimental work was carried out on finding the possibility of dyeing the
P/C blends in one bath process without drain the liquor after polyester part dyeing. All the
existing chemical and conventional temperature range were applied in this study. The result
indicates that, the using of one bath method in the polyester cotton dyeing can slightly change
the fastness properties than the conventional method. The one bath dyeing method showed
level dyeing having good fastness properties and offers the option of cost effective and ecofriendly
dyeing process.
UP resins are made of reinforced fibers like glass, carbon or aramid fibers embedded in a polymer matrix. Unsaturated polyester resins were first developed in the 1930s by reacting glycols with maleic anhydride, which could be cured with a peroxide catalyst to an insoluble solid. These resins are widely used due to their good mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and low weight. Common applications include building materials, sanitary ware, transportation parts like boat hulls, and pipes.
This document provides information about polymers, fibers, resins, and plastics covered in a General Chemistry unit. It defines addition and condensation polymerization and provides examples.

The document discusses various methods for printing acrylic fabric, including direct, discharge, and resist styles. Direct printing uses cationic dyes and requires pretreatment before steaming to fix the dyes. Discharge printing uses a colored ground of dischargeable dyes with illuminating colors of non-dischargeable dyes and a discharging agent like tin chloride. Blends of acrylic and other fibers like cellulose can be printed with desperse or reactive dyes. Recent developments include digital printing of acrylic with conventional inkjet printers and surface modification to improve dyeability.

The document discusses surface modification techniques for cotton fibers to improve dyeability. It notes that untreated cotton fibers have low surface energy and hydrophilicity due to their compact structure and lack of functional groups. This leads to poor dye uptake. Surface modification techniques like plasma treatment introduce functional groups and etching to increase the surface energy above 41 dynes/cm and contact angle to around 70 degrees, improving wettability and dyeability. Plasma parameters like exposure time, pressure, and gas flow rate affect the resulting surface energy. Graft polymerization is also used to introduce functional groups like carboxyl to make cotton cationically dyeable and enhance shade depth.
Plasma finishing can improve the hydrophilicity of polyester fabrics. Plasma treatment introduces functional groups like carboxylic acids onto fabric surfaces through chain scission and re-deposition, making fabrics more wettable. Treatment time and power affect moisture absorption, with longer treatments and higher power increasing hydrophilicity. While oxygen and water plasmas increase wettability, the effect decreases over time. Graft polymerization provides more durable hydrophilicity. Plasma is advantageous for being environmentally friendly, requiring no chemicals or additional drying, and not damaging fabrics. The textile industry has growing interest in plasma finishing as a novel technology.
This document discusses the absorption of moisture by different fibers. It explains that the rate of moisture absorption depends on factors like temperature, humidity, thickness, and fiber type. The absorption process involves the slow diffusion of water molecules through the fiber over time until equilibrium is reached. This diffusion is modeled using Fick's laws of diffusion. Fick's first law states that the rate of diffusion is proportional to the concentration gradient, while Fick's second law accounts for how concentration changes over time as moisture penetrates the fiber. The document provides examples of using these laws to analyze moisture absorption in fibers and other materials.

3. Brief History
Spandex derived from the term expands
Spandex is preferred name in North
America , elsewhere it is referred as
elastane
Development started during World War II.
F. Bayer, earned a German patent for his
synthesis in 1952.
Du Pont as brand name Lycra started full
scale manufacture in 1962.
4. Basics about Elastane Fibre
It is a synthetic polymer made up of a long-chain polyglycol combined with a
short di-isocyanate, and contains at least 85% polyurethane.
Two Segments (long, amorphous segments and short, rigid segments).
6. Pretreatment; Bleaching ?
• Can be bleach by hydrogen peroxide in a best way .
• Not hypochlorite bleaching because they degrade polyurethane.
• Cellulose/polyurethane fibre blend can be bleached using hydrogen peroxide where
as synthetic/PU fibre blend needs no bleaching agent. where the fabric is treated only
with soda ash and other auxiliaries.
Why not Hypochlorite bleaching
It may cause yellowish color
7. Free radical degradation of Elastane due to NaOCl bleaching

8. PU dyeing ?
Dyeing difficult ?
• Complicated distribution of soft &
hard segment.
• Lack of dye reacting sites
That’s why elastane has been divided
in two groups
• Simple elastane( trapping in hard segment
of the polymer chain ,needs after treatments)
• Dye-able elastane- Development of
dyeing sites
( U.S. patent number US 7,838,617 B2 )
9. Dye able Elastane
The Poly-Urethane-urea is prepared using a combination of 4,4'-MDI (4,4'-Methylene-
diphenyl di-isocyanate) and 2,4-MDI, and an amount of chain extenders and chain
terminators.
Chain terminators-Include secondary amines, for example diethylamine (DEA)
Result- Resulting polymer chain having NH- group which will behave like wool , nylon and silk (
dyeing sites) and can be dyed with the help of acid , reactive , metal complex dyes.
Fabrics made up of dyeable elastane will cause better over all fastness

reactive dyes requires
12. Dyeing of elastane/ polyamide blends
PROBLEM ?
As the dyes used to be hydrophobic in nature , favors polyamides and rush towards it
quickly. Causing unleveled dyeing
SOLUTION?
We use anionic retarders which competes with dyes for dye sites on the fibres cause level
dyeing on both the fibres
ANIONIC RETARDERS?
Sulphonic acids, such as naphthalene sulphonic acid . It consist about 2%.
For combined dyeing of elastane and polyamide blends , following is the recipe

13. Dyeing of polyester elastane blends
• Both the polyester and the spandex are
hydrophobic fibers and both can take dispersing
dyes,
• What at low temperature?
• PU take up high disperse dyes ( below 100°C)
• What at high temperature?
• From 100°C, dye began to rush towards PET ,
by holding it to 130°C , we get even dyeing
• Problems ?
• Elastane is not suitable for high temperature
dyeing as PET requires high temperature
dyeing.
• Solution ?
• Carrier ?
• It will lower down the Tg of PET, creates
possibilities to dye around 98°C .
• It will followed by a reduction clearance
process to achieve better washing fastness of
the blends, specially from elastane.
