Cationization Assisted Dyeing: Dyeing of Linen Fabric with Some Acid and Direct Dyes

摘要

Two acid dyes and two direct dyes were used to dyeing of linen fabrics with the assist of cationization using two different commercial cationizing agents, CHTAC (3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride) and PHMB (polyhexamethlene biguanides ). The uncationized and cationized linen fabrics were dyed with the selected different dyes with three different dyeing methods. The fastness properties of the dyed, uncationized and cationized linen fabrics were evaluated.
