The dyeing of nylon 6,6 microfibre

A total of 13 acid dyes were applied to conventional and microfibre knitted nylon 6,6 fabrics using four different dyeing methods. The dyes exhibited a faster rate of uptake, a higher extent and rate of dye desorption, lower wash fastness and lower colour strength on microfabric than on conventional...

Description
Summary:A total of 13 acid dyes were applied to conventional and microfibre knitted nylon 6,6 fabrics using four different dyeing methods. The dyes exhibited a faster rate of uptake, a higher extent and rate of dye desorption, lower wash fastness and lower colour strength on microfabric than on conventional decitex fabric. These findings are attributable to the greater surface area of the microfabric.
