Liposomes in wool dyeing - the stability of dye-liposome systems and their application to untreated wool fibres

Lipid Role in Wool Dyeing

The textile industry uses different fibers obtained from various animals, of which the wool from domesticated sheep Ovis aries is commercially the most important. Dyeing is one of the most important finishing procedures of wool processing. It almost invariably involves absorption of water-soluble colorants from aqueous solutions by the fibers. Diffusion is the process by which the colorant mole...

Dyeing Wool with Metal-free Dyes – The Use of Sodium Borohydride for the Application of Vat Dyes to Wool

Dyeing of Indian wool with reactive dyes

Wool fibres have been chemically modified by reduction I chlorination under acidic pH Ipre-swelling in conc. formic acid prior to their dyeing with indigenous reactive dyes of different molecular configurations to enhance the reactive dye uptake on wool fibre substrate. The pretreatment processes are inexpensive, less harmful and less time consuming as against the use of imported special wool r...

Utilization of MLV Liposomes as a Carrier in Dyeing of Wool/Polyester

Liposomes are lipid-water systems that can carry hydrophobic and hydrophilic materials because of their amphiphilic structures. Application of liposomes in dyeing and finishing textiles is a new technology based on targeting and slow release which can lead to dyeing at lower temperature along with energy savings and lower environmental impacts. In this research work, a practical method for dyei...
