Different Types of Reactive Dyes:-
Properties, Structures and Factors:-
Defination:-
Definition:
In a reactive dye a chromospheres contains a substituent that reacts with the substrate. Reactive dyes have good fastness properties owing to the bonding that occurs during dyeing. Various types of reactive dyes are most commonly used in dyeing of cellulose like cotton or flax, but also wool is dye able with reactive dyes. Reactive dyeing is the most important method for the coloration of cellulosic fibers. It can also be applied on wool and nylon; in the latter case they are applied under weakly acidic conditions. Reactive dyes have a low utilization degree compared to other types of dyestuff, since the functional group also bonds to water, creating hydrolysis.
The reactive dyes are broadly divided in to two categories:
1) Dyes reacting through Nucleophilic substitution reactions
2)Dyes reacting through Nucleophilic addition reactions.
S-B-C-L-F
Where,
S= Solubilizing
B= Bridge

15. Cibacron F,:
Structure:
Properties:
Being “the only fiber reactive dye in the world” would certainly please the sales force of Procion’s manufacturer.
“Cold Water” fiber reactive.
The new dye Is called Cibacron F and is a product of CIBA-Geigy Corp.
Increase in the palette of colors.
It is also easier to wash the excess unattached dye out.
Temperature
50°C
Solubility:
Cibacron F dyes can be used in warm water, instead of extremely hot water like some dyes.
Fixation:
Cibacron F dyes can be mixed with Procion MX series even though take up rates will vary. Since the Cibacron F color series does not include a turquoise, many dyers use the turquoise from the Procion MX series.
Sustainability:
Its ability to “cold batch,” efficiently, that is to be set without heat or steam, means that it is a welcome addition to the palettes of weavers who warp paint, and printers and fabric painters who work with limited equipment. Silk surface designers appreciate the ease of application and rich colors on silk without steaming.
