Reactive Dyes
P Dyes
P dyes, also known as phthalocyanine dyes, are synthetic pigments used in a variety of applications due to their vibrant colors and excellent chemical stability. These dyes are often employed in textiles, inks, and coatings because they offer strong resistance to light, heat, and chemicals. Their molecular structure, based on a phthalocyanine core, allows for modifications that result in a wide range of color variations, making them highly versatile for industrial uses.
VS Dyes
VS dyes, or vinyl sulfone dyes, are reactive dyes commonly used for cellulose fibers like cotton, known for their strong bonding and vibrant, long-lasting shades. They provide excellent colorfastness by chemically reacting with the fabric, ensuring durable, fade-resistant colors, making them popular in the textile industry for their ease of application and wide range of bright hues.
HE Dyes
HE dyes, or high exhaustion dyes, are a type of reactive dye used primarily for cotton and other cellulose fibers. They are designed to offer better dye uptake, requiring less water and energy during the dyeing process. Known for their vibrant colors and excellent colorfastness, HE dyes are widely used in industries aiming for efficient, eco-friendly dyeing methods.
ME Dyes
ME dyes, or medium exhaustion reactive dyes, are used for dyeing cellulose fibers like cotton. These dyes strike a balance between high exhaustion and low exhaustion dyes, offering good color yield with moderate water and energy usage. ME dyes provide vibrant colors with strong colorfastness and are often chosen for their efficiency in standard textile dyeing processes.
KR/KX Dyes
KR/KX dyes are types of reactive dyes specifically formulated for dyeing cellulose fibers like cotton. They are known for their high reactivity, ensuring strong chemical bonding with the fabric, resulting in excellent colorfastness and vibrant shades. KR/KX dyes are widely used in industries for producing deep, long-lasting colors with efficient dyeing processes.
KF Dyes
KF dyes are reactive dyes designed for dyeing cellulose fibers, such as cotton, with high fixation efficiency. These dyes offer excellent colorfastness and produce vibrant, durable colors. KF dyes are popular in the textile industry for their ability to provide uniform dyeing results with minimal dye wastage, making them efficient and cost-effective.
KV Dyes
KV dyes are reactive dyes commonly used for dyeing cellulose fibers like cotton. They are known for their high fixation rates, providing vibrant, long-lasting colors with excellent colorfastness. KV dyes are valued in the textile industry for their efficiency and ability to produce deep, even shades, while minimizing water and energy consumption during the dyeing process.
BI Functional Dyes
BI functional dyes are a category of reactive dyes that possess dual functionality, combining properties for both dyeing and additional effects, such as antimicrobial or UV-protection properties. These dyes are designed to enhance the performance of textiles beyond just color, offering added benefits like improved durability, hygiene, or protection. They are used in applications where both color and functional performance are desired, such as in specialized textiles and activewear.
Black Series Dyes
Black Series dyes are a range of reactive dyes specifically formulated to achieve deep, rich black shades on cellulose fibers like cotton. Known for their excellent colorfastness and high fixation rates, these dyes provide intense, uniform black coloration. They are commonly used in the textile industry for producing high-quality black fabrics with strong durability and resistance to fading.
LX Series Dyes
LX series dyes are reactive dyes designed for dyeing cellulose fibers, such as cotton. They are known for their excellent color fastness and high fixation rates, providing vibrant, long-lasting colors. The LX series typically offers a range of shades and is valued in the textile industry for its ability to achieve strong, uniform colors with efficient application processes.
EX Series Dyes
EX series dyes are reactive dyes used primarily for dyeing cellulose fibers like cotton. They are recognized for their excellent colorfastness, high fixation rates, and wide range of vibrant shades. The EX series provides strong, durable colors with efficient dyeing processes, making them popular in the textile industry for producing high-quality, long-lasting fabric colors.
Other Dyes
Acid Dyes
Acid dyes are a class of dyes used primarily for dyeing protein fibers like wool and silk, as well as synthetic fibers such as nylon. They work well in acidic conditions, which helps them bond strongly to the fibers. Known for their vibrant colors and good lightfastness, acid dyes are commonly used in textiles, pharmaceuticals, and other applications where bright, durable colors are required.
Direct Dyes
Direct dyes are a type of dye used for coloring cellulose fibers like cotton, as well as some synthetic fibers. They are known for their simplicity in application, typically requiring only water to dissolve and apply the dye. Direct dyes provide bright, vivid colors and are valued for their ease of use and cost-effectiveness. However, they generally offer lower colorfastness compared to reactive or acid dyes, often requiring additional treatments to enhance durability.
Disperse Dyes
Disperse dyes are synthetic dyes used primarily for dyeing polyester and other hydrophobic fibers. They are designed to disperse in a water-based solution and penetrate the fiber, providing vibrant colors and good colorfastness. Disperse dyes are commonly used in the textile industry for dyeing synthetic fabrics, offering durability and resistance to fading. They are particularly effective for creating rich, deep shades and are often used in processes like high-temperature dyeing to ensure strong color bonding.
Cationic Basic Dyes
Cationic basic dyes are synthetic dyes that carry a positive charge, allowing them to bond strongly with negatively charged fibers such as acrylics and certain types of nylon. They are known for their vibrant colors and high tinting strength. These dyes are used primarily in applications where bright, vivid shades are desired, and they offer good colorfastness. However, cationic basic dyes can be less suitable for natural fibers and may require specific conditions for optimal dyeing results.
