AI Technical Summary
In traditional dyeing and finishing processes, the organic fastness of polyester spandex and pure polyester fabrics is insufficient, resulting in poor dye penetration and fixation. Furthermore, it is difficult to completely remove unbound dyes and impurities from the fabric surface and inside the fibers, leading to problems such as uneven dyeing and easy fading.
We employ a strictly controlled pre-treatment process, optimized dyeing, and a combination of acid and alkali post-treatment. This process, along with high sublimation, high molecular weight dyes, and low-temperature fixation, ensures the stable fixation of the dye within the fiber. This includes temperature control at 180-210℃, 130-135℃, pH value of 4, 95℃ acidic reduction treatment, and 85℃ alkaline cleaning to avoid high-temperature sublimation and migration.
It significantly improves the organic fastness of polyester spandex and pure polyester fabrics, reduces fading, staining and overflow problems, and enhances the overall quality and dyeing uniformity of textile and footwear materials, reaching level 4-5 of GB/T7074-1997 standard.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of textile dyeing and finishing technology, and more specifically to a dyeing and finishing process for improving the organic fastness of polyester-spandex fabrics or pure polyester fabrics. Background Art
[0002] In the field of footwear and clothing, especially in the field of shoe materials, spandex is often selected as a key material due to its excellent elasticity and durability. However, in the traditional dyeing and finishing process system, pre-setting treatment is often treated in isolation, and its operating parameters such as temperature and time are mostly dependent on empirical rules or broad fiber type classification, lacking in-depth analysis and fine adjustment of specific fabric characteristics and dyeing requirements. This extensive pre-setting treatment method leads to uneven heat setting effects of fibers, which directly weakens the penetration ability and fixation effect of dyes into the fiber during the subsequent dyeing process, making organic fastness a major hidden danger; In addition, in the post-dyeing treatment stage, the industry generally tends to adopt the traditional single or mixed treatment method of glacial acetic acid combined with hydrosulfite. However, this method is often difficult to completely remove the unbound dyes and impurities remaining on the surface of the fabric and inside the fiber. These stubborn residues not only damage the visual beauty and tactile experience of the product, but more importantly, they seriously weaken the organic fastness, making the textile footwear very easy to fade, stain and other quality problems during subsequent wearing and washing; What is even more troublesome is that during the finishing process, due to the deficiencies in the aforementioned processing links, the dyes are very likely to sublimate and migrate under high temperature conditions. This phenomenon not only destroys the uniformity and clarity of the dyeing, but also further reduces the dyeing quality and overall performance of the textile footwear materials. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above technical problems and provide a dyeing and finishing process for improving the organic fastness of polyester-spandex fabrics or pure polyester fabrics.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The present invention proposes a dyeing and finishing process for polyester-spandex and pure polyester fabrics, by strictly controlling pre-setting (polyester-spandex 180-210°C, pure polyester 160-180°C), optimizing dyeing (130-135°C, 20-50 minutes, pH4, using high sublimation, polymer dyes), implementing one acid and one alkali post-treatment (95°C acidic for 30 minutes, 85°C alkaline for 20 minutes), and low-temperature setting (≤130°C).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0015] The present invention provides a dyeing and finishing process for improving the organic fastness of polyester-spandex fabric or pure polyester fabric. The steps of the dyeing and finishing process include pre-setting, dyeing, post-treatment and setting of the polyester-spandex fabric or pure polyester fabric. The polyester-spandex fabric is a mixed textile of polyester and spandex. In the case of the polyester-spandex fabric, the temperature during the pre-setting process is 180-210°C; in the case of the pure polyester fabric, the temperature during the pre-setting process is 160-180°C. The pre-setting temperature should be determined according to the fiber composition and tissue structure of the fabric. Generally speaking, the temperature should be higher than the highest temperature in subsequent processing, but cannot exceed the fiber The specific duration of the pre-setting depends on the thickness, width and heating efficiency of the polyester-spandex fabric or pure polyester fabric. The pre-setting time needs to be long enough to ensure the dimensional stability of the fabric and the heat setting effect of the fiber. However, too long a time will increase energy consumption and reduce production efficiency. Therefore, the pre-setting time of polyester-spandex fabric or pure polyester fabric is usually between 20 and 80 seconds as the best, and the polyester-spandex fabric is preferably 60s to ensure the dimensional stability of the fabric and the heat setting effect of the fiber. The temperature during the dyeing process is 130-135°C, the duration is 30-60 minutes, the pH value is 4, and high sublimation and polymer dyes are used for dyeing; the purpose is to further open the polyester fiber molecules and better allow the dye to be adsorbed and fixed inside the fiber; In the post-treatment process, a two-step method of one acid and one base is adopted, specifically including an acid reduction treatment with a high-potential acidic reducing agent at 95° C. for 30 minutes and an alkaline reduction cleaning treatment with a mixture of sodium hydroxide and sodium dithionite at 85° C. for 20 minutes; a high-potential acidic reducing agent is a chemical substance with strong reducing properties under acidic conditions, and such reducing agents are usually able to lose electrons in a chemical reaction, thereby being oxidized, and reducing other substances to a lower oxidation state; the acid treatment uses a high-potential reducing agent to reduce the fabric at a specific temperature and time, which helps to further open the fiber structure, allowing the dye to more easily enter the fiber and firmly bind, while the subsequent alkaline treatment uses a specific reduction washing formula to further remove unbound dyes and other impurities while controlling the temperature to avoid affecting the color of the fabric, thereby consolidating the fixation effect of the dye; The temperature in the setting process is ≤130°C, and a polyester-spandex fabric or pure polyester fabric with improved organic fastness is obtained. Due to the key role played by the pre-setting treatment and the acid-base treatment in the subsequent intermediate steps, the temperature can be controlled below 130°C (not higher than the dyeing temperature) in the final setting process. This temperature setting not only avoids the sublimation and migration of the dye at high temperature, but also ensures the stable fixation of the dye inside the fiber, thereby significantly improving the organic fastness of the textile shoe material. According to GB / T7074-1997, the organic fastness of the material is measured to be level 4-5.
[0016] Wherein, the shrinkage rate of the polyester-spandex fabric or pure polyester fabric after the pre-forming process is ≤±3%.
[0017] Among them, when it comes to polyester-spandex fabrics, the temperature during the pre-setting process is 210°C, and the temperature during the setting process is 130°C.
[0018] Wherein, the shrinkage rate of the polyester-spandex fabric or pure polyester fabric after the pre-forming process is ≤3%.
[0019] Among them, when it comes to polyester-spandex fabrics, the temperature during the pre-setting process is 210°C, and the temperature during the setting process is 130°C.

[0023] Among them, the pre-treatment in the dyeing process needs to fully deal with oil stains and other impurities, usually using a degreasing agent for treatment, which is beneficial to the uniform adsorption and fixation of the dye in the subsequent dyeing process.
