Dyeing polyamide/elastane blends

General
This pattern card provides recommendations on dyeing polyamide/elastane blends. All dyes used for polyamide stain elastane to a greater or lesser extent, therefore the wet fastness level on this blend is usually lower than on pure polyamide. The dyes recommended for polyamide /elastane in this pattern card are:

TECTILON dyes ERIONYL A dyes LANASET dyes POLAR dyes

(acid dyes) (acid dyes) (modified 1:2 metal complex and reactive dyes) (acid dyes)

The ranges complement each other in their dyeing properties, and enable the different requirements in the various outlets for polyamide/elastane material to be met. The pattern card contains useful information on pretreatment, bleaching/fluorescent whitening, dye selection, compatibility, dyeing procedures and textile auxiliaries. Dyeing parameters are also detailed. All dyes are illustrated as self shades on a representative swimwear fabric made from 40 denier extra dull PA 6 yarn blended with 20% elastane. All fastness data and details of application properties in this pattern card were tested on this material.

Outlets
Textured and non-textured filament and staple fiber yarns are blended with elastane fibers to make a variety of knitted and woven elastic apparel e.g.: sports and swimwear underwear and foundation garments pantyhose and therapeutic elastic stockings elastic ribbons and tapes tulle and lace

Polyamide fibers
Polyamide belongs to the polycondensate group of fibers, the most important of these being PA 6 (perlon type) and PA 66 (nylon type), which differ somewhat in their physical and dyeing properties. The perlon type is slightly less temperature-resistant, but easier to dye. Somewhat better fastness properties can be expected with the nylon types. The following fiber properties and/or pretreatment processes are among the parameters that can influence the result. Fiber surface/cross section (round, trilobal, etc.) The more highly structured and the larger the surface, the lower the color strength and thus the lower the light fastness. Fineness (dtex) The finer the fibers or fibrils, the lower the color strength and the wet fastness properties. Delustring The higher the degree of delustring, the lower the color strength and thus the lower the light fastness. Texturing Color strength is lower on textured than on smooth yarns.

Dyeing polyamide/elastane blends

Elastane fibers
Elastane fibers (EL) consist of at least 85% polyurethane, built up of linear macromolecules arranged in segments. The macromolecules contain alternating hard and soft segments. The hard segments (short crystalline zones) impart stability to the fiber, the soft segments, which are long, unstructured and flexible, give the polymer its rubber-like stretchiness. Elastane fibers can be stretched four to seven times their initial length and spring back to the original length when the tension is released. Elastane fibers are composed of fused filaments, fineness range 112500 dtex. They are available in dull white, semi-transparent, bright and clear versions. Elastane in blends with polyamide is used bare (foundation wear, swimwear, circular knits etc.) or covered by PA (hosiery, socks, narrow fabrics, woven). Elastane fibers are often stained by acid and metal complex dyes, but it is difficult to achieve tone-in-tone effects, especially with the dull types used bare (not covered). Stretching such kind of fabrics can lead to grin through of the elastic component. With the transparent types of elastane these undesirable features are less marked. Elastane fibers are resistant to acids, alkalis, oxidizing and reducing agents under the usual pretreatment, dyeing and finishing conditions. Chlorine bleaching agents cause loss of strength and discoloration. There are specific types of elastane, which are recommended for swimwear.

General precautions (storage)


During spinning and winding of elastane high amounts of silicone oils and other lubricants are used. During weaving and knitting further oils and auxiliaries are applied for good running properties. Degradation of these products during long-term storage can lead to yellowing or, even worse, to a reduction of elasticity. A further problem could be so called cold setting, causing permanent crease marks. Circular knit goods with a high content of elastane are preferably cut directly on the knitting machine and rolled in open-width form. These problems are made worse by improper storage conditions in warehouses, which are in most cases not air-conditioned or where exhaust fumes from trucks and forklifts are present. Sunlight can also aggravate degradation (outdoor storage). If storage periods of more than 3 months are not avoidable, the fabrics should be sealed in plastic film which is impervious to both air and light.

Dyeing polyamide/elastane blends

Processing routes
Most commonly relaxation and heat setting are the first steps prior to scouring. This is the more economical route but it entails risks: during heat setting impurities and degradation products of lubricants can be baked into the fabric, forming heavy fumes can be created during heat setting, causing environmental problems and staining of the stenter by condensation products. If the above problems occur, scouring (i.e. on a soft flow jet) before heat setting is a good remedy. This scouring step will also induce proper relaxation of the fabric so that further steam relaxation before heat setting is not necessary. Setting after dyeing can cause color changes through fiber yellowing or reduction of wet fastness owing to thermomigration of dyes. Pre-setting conditions are therefore always more severe in order to allow postsetting under milder conditions. stains which resist even harsh scouring.

Relaxation
During weaving or knitting the elastic yarns are under a certain tension, which is then incorporated in the fabric. Relaxation prior to heat setting is an important part of processing elastic fabrics as it avoids rope marks and puckering during dyeing and guarantees good dimensional stability. Depending on the processing route, relaxation is done: by steaming (steam table or steam box in front of the stenter before heat-setting) in the pre-scouring bath before heat setting.

Heat setting
Open width heat setting controlled by temperature, overfeed and holding to width determines the desired stretch level as well as the final fabric weight and width. Circular knitted material shows less tendency to selvage curling during dyeing if properly heat-set prior to dyeing. Heat setting is performed at 180 ~ 190C/356 ~ 374F for 30 ~ 45 sec. Higher temperatures cause yellowing of elastane and reduction of elasticity.

Processing of circular knits


Presetting of circular knitted fabrics necessitates slitting of the tubular rope. During dyeing the disadvantage is curling of the selvages of the open width material, entailing a high risk of unlevelness. This risk can be reduced by: gluing or gumming the selvages with water resistant products sewing the fabric into tubular form (labor intensive!) using air-flow type dyeing machines

Alternatively, if a special heat-setting machine for tubular material is used, the fabrics can be dyed in the tubular make-up form without any problems.

Pretreatment
Scouring/relaxation
Silicone oils and lubricants should be thoroughly removed from the fabric before dyeing. They have a negative influence on leveling of dyes, resulting in reduced fastness and limited build up.

2030 min at 6090C/140194F hot rinse A very essential part of the scouring process is the following rinse. The scouring liquor should never be cooled by rinsing with cold water because the emulsified oils will precipitate again, leaving spots on the textile. The most efficient routine is to give a good overflow rinse with hot water, then drain the machine and use cold water only in the final rinse before dyeing.

Bleaching/fluorescent whitening
A high proportion of polyamide goes into white goods. Typical items are locknit charmeuse for underwear, lace and foundation garments. The usual reduction bleach is generally not sufficient to achieve the required degree of whiteness. The goods must therefore be fluorescent whitened in addition, preferably using products that are stable in the reduction bleach bath.

Dyeing machines
High temperature and mechanical stress on the material during the dyeing process are factors which can cause a loss of elasticity. The sensitivity of the elastic material to the mechanical dyeing conditions is dependent on the content of elastane. The most sensitive are fabrics with more than 25% elastane, and to preserve their elasticity only beam dyeing machines are recommended for them. Textiles containing more than 10% elastane should be dyed on so-called soft flow jets. The circulation of the rope of textile is very smooth and soft for two reasons: very short distance between liquor surface and winch fully flooded material transportation through the dye liquor.

Ciba Specialty Chemicals

Dyeing polyamide/elastane blends

Fabrics with less than 10% elastane can be dyed on modern air jets; they have a very low liquor ratio and their high speed guarantees good levelness. They are more useful than conventional jets for elastane fabrics because the air-flow used to transport the fabric reduces the liquor content in the textile, the wet fabric is therefore lighter and less stretched when pulled through the transportation unit. A further advantage of this machine type is better opening of the rope during dyeing; this means less curling of the selvages of open width circular knits.

Soft flow jets


very low stretch due to short distance between liquor and winch fully flooded material transportation ideal for most sensitive material with a high elastane content fairly high liquor ratio

Air flow jets


good opening of the material (air) guided transportation in layers through the machine higher tension on the material than in soft flow jets very short liquor ratio

Dye selection
General
Widely varying substrate forms and end products mean that the different requirements of polyamide dyeing cannot be covered by a single dye range. Selective use of the different ranges allows the different requirements to be met.

Ciba TECTILON acid dyes


TECTILON dyes are recommended for pale and medium shades, as wet fastness of deep dyeings is too low. The big advantage of these dyes lies in their outstanding leveling properties.

Ciba ERIONYL A acid dyes


ERIONYL A dyes have higher wet fastness than TECTILON dyes and are thus mainly used for medium and deep shades. Deep dyeings may require aftertreatment to achieve the required wet fastness standard.

Ciba LANASET acid/metal complex dyes


LANASET dyes are used in particular for medium to very deep shades. They generally do not require aftertreatment to achieve good wet fastness.

Ciba POLAR acid dyes


POLAR dyes are brilliant highly fast acid dyes and complement the PA concept in the very brilliant shade areas.

Dyeing
Parameters influencing dyeing
Dyeing temperature
Elastane fibers are sensitive to high temperatures. To preserve their elasticity dyeing temperatures above the boil are not recommended.

Dyeing pH
The optimum pH varies with type of dye, shade depth and type of fiber. It is advisable to adjust the pH with a buffer. pH Sodium acetate or ammonium acetate Acetic acid 80% Monosodium phosphate Disodium phosphate g/L ml /L g/L g/L 4.5 0.5 0.5 5 1 0.4 5.5 2 0.3 6 2 2 0.5 6.5 23 1.5 1 7 0.5 1.5 8 2

The pH depends closely on the process water, and the above figures should thus be regarded as guidelines. A rise in pH is to be expected on heating permutit water.

Migration
The movement of the dye in or on the substrate from points of higher to points of lower concentration is known as migration. Migration depends primarily on the constitution of the dye, but is also affected to a varying degree by the type of fiber and treatment conditions (pH, auxiliaries, temperature, time). Migration is an indication of the leveling power of a dye.

Barriness
Production-related physical and chemical differences in the fiber material and also stretching differences can result in barriness. Barriness can be covered to varying degrees by selecting suitable dyes and using appropriate dyeing auxiliaries and procedures.

Build up
Build up refers to the maximum shade depth achieved with a specific dye. It is primarily determined by the dyes chemical constitution. Fiber properties, especially the saturation limit, also play a role.

Blocking
Mutual displacement of individual acid dyes from the fiber during dyeing is known as blocking. This effect depends mainly on dye constitution, but also on dye concentration, fiber saturation, auxiliaries, pH and temperature. Thus disulfo dyes on polyamide are blocked to a varying degree by monosulfo dyes. Dye selection plays an important role in preventing blocking (seeRecommendations for combination shadespage 10, Table 1 : Recommendations for combination shadespage 11).

Dissolving the dyes


Paste the dye cold with soft water Add hot water (6090C/140194F) and boil up briefly with live steam if necessary Stir thoroughly (with rapid stirrer if necessary)

Auxiliaries and chemicals should not be added during dissolving. The dye solution should always be added to the dyebath through a strainer or sieve. For further details on solubility of the individual dyes, please see the fastness tables in the pattern section. The temperature of dye solutions containing LANASET Red 2B should not exceed 60C/140F. Ciba Specialty Chemicals

12/63

Dyeing polyamide/elastane blends

Dyeing chemicals
Penetration accelerants
These products are added to the dyebath to de-aerate and rapidly wet out the goods. They also have a foamsuppressing effect. The penetration accelerants recommended here, CIBAFLOW CIR and CIBAFLOW JET, have specific applications. CIBAFLOW CIR achieves a balance between wetting out, de-aerating and defoaming. It is mainly used in circulating liquor dyeing (beam dyeing). CIBAFLOW JET has a durable antifoam effect and is used in jet dyeing.

Leveling agents for acid dyes


These retard exhaustion of the dyes, promote migration and thus improve levelness. UNIVADINE PA NEW and UNIVADINE NT NEW have affinity for the fiber and are used in dyeing with TECTILON, ERIONYL and POLAR dyes. UNIVADINE PA NEW fulfils highest standards of levelness with balanced migration, covering of barriness, and retarding effect.

Leveling agents for LANASET dyes


ALBEGAL SET, which has affinity for the dye and the fiber, is used with LANASET dyes. UNIVADINE MC NEW is especially suitable for promoting coverage of barriness caused by physical differences in the fiber structure (crystallinity, cross section). The products are suitable for use in dyeing polyamide fibers in all forms at the boil and under HT conditions.

Crease prevention
CIBAFLUID U and CIBAFLUID C are used for crease prevention in piece dyeing. They prevent cracks, creases and abrasion marks in winches and jets without impairing the quality of the dyeing. These products also enhance the running properties of elastic fabrics, resulting in less tension during dyeing and therefore better preservation of the elasticity.

only for medium shades to ensure full exhaustion:

(C) Notes

diluted acetic acid or acid donor

Very high requirements for wash fastness at higher temperatures (60C/140F) force the dyer to switch to high fastness dyes for shade areas where acid leveling dyes are normally used. High fastness dyes tend to be unlevel and to accentuate physical affinity differences in polyamide fabrics, resulting in barriness. The reason for this is the very fast first strike of such dyes if applied under slightly acid conditions. Their migration properties are limited; this means that during heating and boiling there is not much chance to correct initial unlevelness. Experience has shown that dyeing at an alkaline pH is a very practical method of slowing down the exhaustion rate and of greatly improving levelness. Typical pale underwear shades (skin shades) are dyed at pH 8 to 8.5. This ensures outstanding slow tone-in-tone build up during heating, and full exhaustion at the boil, resulting in excellent reproducibility.

Improving wet fastness properties


Aftertreatment with CIBAFIX PAS can improve wet fastness properties of the dyes. This is best performed in a fresh bath. Aftertreatment can be performed in the exhausted dyebath, but this procedure is not really recommended as the pH and the presence of nonionic leveling and wetting agents and detergents can severely impair its efficacy.

With very deep shades as well as with black and navy (dyed with premetallized dyes) on polyamide / elastane blends, a further aftertreatment enhances fastness still more. After anionic fixation with CIBAFIX PAS the cationic fixing agent CIBAFIX ECO is applied. Thorough rinsing after application of CIBAFIX PAS is essential; residues in the bath will cause precipitation with cationic fixing agents. As a time-saving alternative, CIBAFIX ECO can also be applied together with a softener in a final pad treatment before drying on the stenter.

High comfort in wear and easy care make woven and knitted goods of polyamide microfibers popular for functional leisure and sports wear. Polyamide microfibers, which are supplied by numerous manufacturers, vary widely in fineness, degree of delustring, fiber profiles and surface modifications. Brand names include Supplex/Tactel (Du Pont), Meryl Micro (Rhne-Poulenc, Viscosuisse) and Siks Micro (Snia Fibres). Microfibers are polyamide filament yarns whose individual filament fineness is less than 1 dtex. Fabrics are labeled micro if at least one system, warp or weft, consists of microfibers. Fiber Coarse Medium fine Fine Micro Super fine Fineness > 7 dtex 72.4 dtex 2.41 dtex 10.3 dtex < 0.3 dtex

Fastness properties
Light and wet fastness properties of polyamide microfibers are often considerably poorer (1/2 ~ 1 rating) than those of conventional polyamide fibers. Fastness depends closely on the type of fiber.

Dyeing
On account of their extreme fineness, microfibers have several special dyeing characteristics, and these are discussed below. For other information, please see the general section. Microfiber filament yarns require higher amounts of dye than conventional filament yarns to achieve a given shade depth. Fastness properties required of functional clothing are high and not always easy to achieve. TECTILON and ERIONYL A dyes are suitable for pale and medium shades (procedures described on page 14Dyeing procedures). For good build up and high fastness with medium and deep shades, LANASET dyes are usually required.

Continuous dyeing of narrow fabrics


General
Elastic tapes and ribbons constitute a very important segment in the field of narrow fabrics. They are mainly made from PA/EL in various blend ratios and patterns. The majority of these narrow fabrics are dyed by the continuous method, as this increases productivity and allows orders to be fulfilled at short notice. The pad-steam procedure comprises the following steps: padding fixation washing off aftertreatment (if required) drying

Fastness requirements depend on the end product. As narrow fabrics are frequently used for underwear, fastness to perspiration and washing are essential. Fastness to rubbing is important with deep dyeings. Products from the TECTILON, ERIONYL A, LANASET and POLAR ranges are suitable for dyeing. TECTILON dyes are recommended for pale shades, ERIONYL A and POLAR for medium and deep shades. LANASET dyes meet very high wet fastness requirements. The most important criterion for dye selection is adequate solubility at room temperature. Good build up in the shortest possible steaming time is a major factor too.

Steaming
The fixation of the dyes takes place during steaming. Steaming temperature and time are the key factors for achieving sufficient build-up and fastness, but too high a steaming temperature can affect the handle. The usual steaming conditions are 36 min. with superheated steam at 100102C/212216F, very deep shades and black and navy need up to 8 min. at a temperature of 102106C/216223F.

Washing off and aftertreatment


Deep shades need efficient aftertreatment. Typical procedure: acid shock with 3 ml formic acid at 80C/176F /L hot rinse at 80C/176F with 2 g/L ERIOPON OS hot rinse at 80C/176F 30 g/L CIBAFIX PAS, pH 4.5 (acetic acid) at 70C/158F 30 g/L CIBAFIX PAS, pH 4.5 (acetic acid) at 70C/158F softening

Notes on the pattern section


Standard dyeings
TECTILON, ERIONYL A, LANASET and POLAR dyes were applied on polyamide/elastane tricot (80/20) at 2 or 3 different shade depths by the methods described, at 98C/208F, liquor ratio 20:1.

Fastness properties
Fastness properties were tested in accordance with SN-ISO 105 or international standards. Fastness ratings refer to the material illustrated with and sometimes without aftertreatment. Where multifiber strip is specified as adjacent fabric, such as in wash test C06 B2, adjacent fabric not mentioned in the table attained rating 5 for staining. Light fastness was tested at the given depths, wet fastness at 1/1 standard depth (SD) or as light navy (N/L) and deep black (B/Dk). Standard depth 1/1 was determined colorimetrically in accordance with ISO 105-A06 (edition 1995, Instrumental determination of standard depth 1/1). Results can differ, depending on fiber material, and for special requirements preliminary trials are advisable. Polyamide microfibers frequently have considerably lower fastness properties than conventional varieties.
