A dye composition and a dyeing method for an elastic fabric are provided. The dyeing method includes: (a) providing an elastic fabric which includes an elastic fiber; and (b) immersing the elastic fabric in a dye composition. The dye composition includes an ion modifier and a dye. The elastic fiber of the elastic fabric has a first ion by contacting the ion modifier, and the first ion has a first charge; the dye has a second ion, and the second ion has a second charge opposite to the first charge. The first ion of the elastic fiber and the second ion of the dye together form an ionic bonding.

System and methods that enables fabric to be metalized and dyed to reach final colors that were previously unobtainable. The systems and methods relate to processes for controlling the color of metalized fabrics. Specifically, for some embodiments, the systems and methods relate to methods of making metalized fabrics that are lighter in color than prior metalized fabrics. Such fabrics may be printed on or dyed using lighter colors than would be possible when using prior metalized fabrics. The systems and methods herein may include dye baths and wash baths that are hotter than prior art processes.

The present invention relates to yarn dyeing, such as denim dyeing. A process provides a dyed yarn having reduced dye penetration and a white core at lower cost. The improved process for yarn dyeing is referred to herein as the CleanKore technology. The CleanKore technology improves one or more steps in dye ranges to achieve dyeing of the yarn while retaining a white core at the center of the yarn. When viewing a cross-section of a yarn, the peripheral portion is dyed while the center remains white (not dyed). The CleanKore technology modifies the scouring stage (or phase), the scour rinsing stage, the dyeing stage, and/or the dye rinsing phase of existing dye ranges. The modifications may be applied individually or any combinations thereof to the existing dye range.

The disclosure provides a method of continuous dyeing with reactive dyes in wet conditions, the method including: 1) adding fabric to a mixture of a dye liquor and an alkali through a one-bath-one-step method; 2) immersing the fabric pretreated in 1) in a padding liquor with an air film horizontal pad dyeing machine; 3) preheating the fabric after being treated in 2) at a temperature of 50-90° C.; and 4) rolling and batching the fabric after being treated in 3) at a temperature of 10-70° C. for 2-72 hours.

The present disclosure relates to fibrous structures including active agents and having a graphic printed thereon. In some embodiments, a nonwoven web may include a fibrous structure comprising filaments. In turn, the filaments may include filament forming material, and an active agent releasable from the filaments when exposed to conditions of intended use. In addition, a graphic may be printed directly onto the fibrous structure.

A method for manufacturing a fabric with an intelligently-designed digitally-printed pattern with energy saving effect is disclosed. It includes S1: knitting a cotton yarn, a bamboo fiber yarn, and a mulberry silk yarn into a silk-cotton plain knitted single-sided fabric; S2: subjecting the fabric to a double-sided singeing; S3: mercerizing the fabric obtained in step S2; S4: subjecting the mercerized fabric to a neutralizing processing, a bleaching processing, a deoxidating processing, and a whitening processing in sequence; S5: setting the base color of the fabric obtained in step S4; S6: subjecting the fabric obtained in step S5 to a sizing and setting treatment, a pattern design treatment, a digital printing, a steaming treatment, and a water washing treatment; S7: subjecting the fabric obtained in step S6 to a soft setting; S8: subjecting the fabric obtained in step S7 to a decating treatment; and S9: pre-shrinking the fabric obtained in S8.

An activated cotton material and a method for processing cotton to form the activated cotton material are provided. The activated cotton material includes a layer of natural wax that is locked to the surface of cotton fibers by a wax lock.

Disclosed is an environmentally friendly method that enables the pre-treatment and dyeing processes applied to cellulosic products used in the production of textile products such as towels, bathrobes to be carried out in a single bath with natural, biological preparations.

A method for manufacturing fabric with flat screen and digital printed patterns includes: singeing, pretreatment, flat screen scraping sizing, drying, pattern printing, humidification, steaming treatment, washing, and non-ironing and soft setting. The pretreatment is a biological enzyme pretreatment process including: cloth feeding at 75° C., dipping, scouring and bleaching in a working fluid, heating to 90° C. for treatment of 30 minutes, draining, hot water washing and cold water washing. A shortened process flow can be realized, and the positioned sizing that uses a flat screen to scrape a sizing agent to a pattern position to be digital spray-printed on instead of traditional full-width sizing for sizing and printing, which greatly reduces the amount of sizing agent used, lowers production cost and reduces waste water pollution, and solves problem that the fabric is mottled caused by the application of sizing agent in areas without printed pattern due to full-width sizing.
