[0002] In the textile field, blended fabrics are widely used because they combine the advantages of different fibers. However, heterochromatic dyeing of blended fabrics has always been a challenging problem.

[0003] Traditional dyeing methods for blended fabrics usually have many limitations. In the single dyeing process, due to the different affinity and adsorption capacity of different fibers to dyes, it is often difficult to achieve the ideal dyeing effect of two fibers at the same time, resulting in dull, uneven colors or poor color fastness.

[0004] Moreover, the existing dyeing process may have an adverse effect on the performance of the fabric, such as reducing the strength of the fabric, making the hand feel worse, etc. This not only affects the quality and use value of the product, but also limits the application of blended fabrics in the high-end market.

[0005] In addition, some dyeing processes are complex, requiring multiple steps and strict condition control, which increases production costs and production cycles. At the same time, traditional processes are also insufficient in terms of environmental protection, and the chemical reagents used may cause significant pollution to the environment.

[0006] With the increasing demands of consumers for color diversity and quality of textiles, as well as the enhancement of environmental awareness, there is an urgent need for an innovative hybrid dyeing process for blended fabrics, which can not only achieve excellent dyeing effects, ensure color fastness and fabric performance, but also have the advantages of easy operation, reasonable cost and environmental friendliness.

[0016] Preferably, the pretreatment liquid is composed of JFC penetrant, silicone softener and water in a volume ratio of 3:1:6.

[0017] Preferably, the concentration of the JFC penetrant is 10 g / L, and the concentration of the silicone softener is 6 g / L.

[0018] Preferably, during the dyeing process, the pH value of the dye solution is controlled to be 5.5-6.0, and the pH is adjusted using an acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer solution. The concentration of the buffer solution is calculated using the formula: C=0.05×(δ×V) / (Ka×V1), wherein C is the concentration of the buffer solution, δ is the pH variation range, V is the volume of the dye solution, Ka is the dissociation constant of acetic acid, and V1 is the volume of the buffer solution added.

[0075] The dyed blended fabrics in the above three embodiments were subjected to performance tests, including color fastness (washing color fastness, rubbing color fastness), strength (breaking strength, tearing strength), hand feel and other indicators, and the test results were organized into the following table:

[0076]

[0077]

[0078] By analyzing the table data, the following conclusions can be drawn:

[0079] In terms of color fastness, Examples 1 and 3 performed relatively well, especially the color fastness to washing reached level 4-5, and the color fastness to rubbing was also relatively good.

[0080] In terms of strength, the breaking strength and tearing strength values ​​of the three embodiments are relatively close, indicating that the dyeing process has little effect on the strength of the fabric.

[0081] In terms of hand feel, the fabrics of the three embodiments all have good hand feel, among which Embodiment 1 has the best hand feel.

[0082] First, from the specific process of the embodiment, each step of this dyeing process has a clear purpose and function. The pretreatment step improves the surface properties of the fiber through the pretreatment liquid of specific temperature and composition, lays a good foundation for the subsequent dyeing process, and helps to improve the permeability and uniformity of the dye. In the dyeing process of cotton fiber and polyester fiber respectively, suitable dyes and optimized dyeing conditions are selected for the characteristics of the two fibers to ensure that each can achieve a desired dyeing effect. The color fixation treatment link further enhances the binding fastness of the dye on the fiber, improves the color fastness of the dyed fabric, and enables it to maintain stable color during use and washing.

[0083] In terms of performance testing, color fastness, strength and feel are important indicators for evaluating dyeing effects and fabric quality. From the test results, this process can achieve good color fastness at different blending ratios. The performance of washing color fastness and rubbing color fastness shows that the fabric after dyeing has a strong ability to retain color in daily use and is not easy to fade or fade due to friction. In terms of strength, although the values ​​in different embodiments are different, they are generally kept within a reasonable range, indicating that the dyeing process has little effect on the basic mechanical properties of the fabric and can meet the requirements of actual use. The good performance in feel reflects the focus of this process on the softness and comfort of the fabric during the processing, which is of great significance for improving the quality and user experience of the fabric.

[0084] Further analysis of the influencing factors shows that the ratio of blended fabrics is a key factor. Different ratios of cotton fiber and polyester fiber not only affect the difficulty and effect of dyeing, but are also directly related to the final performance of the fabric. For example, blended fabrics with a higher cotton fiber ratio have advantages in water absorption and breathability, but may be relatively weak in strength and wear resistance; while fabrics with a higher polyester fiber ratio perform better in strength and wear resistance, but may be slightly inferior in moisture absorption. Therefore, in practical applications, it is necessary to select the appropriate blending ratio based on the specific use and performance requirements of the product.

[0085] Optimization of pretreatment conditions is crucial to improving dyeing results. Reasonable selection of pretreatment liquid temperature, component concentration and immersion time can significantly improve fiber wettability and dyeability, allowing dyes to penetrate more evenly and deeply into the fiber, improving dyeing uniformity and depth.

[0086] Precise control of dyeing conditions is the key to achieving ideal dyeing results. The proper combination of dye concentration, dyeing temperature and time needs to be determined based on the characteristics of the fiber, the performance of the dye and the desired dyeing effect. Too high or too low parameter settings may result in uneven dyeing, insufficient color fastness or adverse effects on fabric performance.

[0087] The proper selection of fixing conditions is the key to ensuring color fastness. The reasonable combination of fixing agent concentration, temperature and time can effectively enhance the binding force between dye and fiber and improve color fastness, while paying attention to avoid negative impact on other properties of fabric.

[0088] In summary, the "a blended fabric heterochromatic dyeing process" of the present invention has strong practicality and operability. Through the verification of multiple embodiments, its adaptability and stability under different blending ratios are demonstrated. In actual production, this process can provide an efficient and reliable solution for the heterochromatic dyeing of blended fabrics, meeting the market demand for diversified and high-quality dyed fabrics. However, it should be pointed out that although this process has achieved good results under experimental conditions, in large-scale industrial production, it is necessary to further consider factors such as production efficiency, cost control, and environmental protection. In the future, on the basis of existing processes, in-depth research and optimization can be continued, such as exploring more environmentally friendly pretreatment agents and color fixing agents, optimizing process flow to improve production efficiency, reduce energy consumption, etc. At the same time, combined with advanced detection technology and equipment, the dyeing process and product quality are more accurately monitored and evaluated, so as to continuously improve the process level and product quality, and promote the development and innovation of blended fabric dyeing technology.

[0089] The embodiments of the present invention are given for the purpose of illustration and description, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the disclosed forms. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art. The embodiments are selected and described in order to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present invention and to enable those of ordinary skill in the art to understand the present invention and thereby design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for specific uses.
