Introduction
What is Dyeing?
The pro ess i the ourse of whi h, a textile material placed in contact with the solution or dispersion of a dye, absorbs the said dye in such a way that the dyed material opposes a certain resistance to releasing the dye from the aterial i whi h it has ee a sor ed.

Phases in Dyeing
1. Disaggregation of the dye 2. Exhaustion - Movement of the dye from dyebath towards the textile material 3. Adsorption of the dye on the surface of the textile material 4. Diffusion/absorption/penetration of the dye within the textile material 5. Fixation of the dye in the textile material
Fiber molecules are grouped in the form of linear polymeric chains Generally these linear chains of polymers are oriented along the axis of fibriller filaments Dyeability of fibers depends on the orientation of these molecular chains

Pore size of wool fiber in dry state is 6A which increases to 41A when wet Synthetic fibers have high orientation and crystallinity and poor swelling in wet state; consequently dye penetration is comparatively difficult in synthetic dyes
2. Coplanarity
3. Capability to form hydrogen bonds 4. Separation of hydrogen bond-capable entities by a distance of 10.3 Angstrom or a multiple thereof 5. Existence of a system of conjugated double bonds 6. The presence of solublizing (sulphonic or carboxylic) groups in the minimum possible quantity

Hydrogen Bonding
Hydrogen atoms can accept electrons, especially when it is directly linked to nitrogen or oxygen Nitrogen atom in the azo group can donate electrons Oxygen atom in hydroxyl or ether group can also donate electrons Nitrogen and oxygen present in the dye can make hydrogen bond with hydrogen in the hydroxyl group of cellulose Hydrogen present in the dye may form hydrogen bond with oxygen in the cellulose

Cellulose acetate
Acetylation causes:
Alteration of surface characteristics Decrease in hydrophilicity Limited inter-miceller canal size due to less swelling because of water

Protein Fibers
Contain NH, -NH2 and COOH groups Are hydrophilic because of the above groups Have amphoteric nature In acidic pH, -NH3+ is formed In basic pH, -COO- is formed Normally dyeing is done in acidic pH

Nylon Fibers
Polyester Fibers
Normal polyester does not contain any ionic groups The fiber crystallinity is very high Only suitable dye is disperse dye Either temperature > 100C required or special auxiliary (carrier) required for dyeing Cationic dyeable modified polyester is also available

Acrylic Fibers
Normally contain acidic/anionic groups
Sulphonic groups; and/or Carboxylic groups
Because of the presence of acidic groups, acrylic fibers can be dyed with basic/cationic dyes SO3- or COO- groups form bonds with cationic dye
Summary
Physical and chemical structure of fiber and dye greatly influence the dyeing process
