Common problems and cause analysis of color fastness to rubbing

Common problems and cause analysis of color fastness to rubbing

2021-04-12

The color fastness to rubbing is the most basic evaluation index for the color fastness of textile products.


The main problems of SME products in terms of color fastness to rubbing are:

1. The color fastness to wet rubbing of medium and dark cotton, linen and their blended products is mostly below 2-3, which is lower than the requirements of general standards.

2. The color fastness to dry rubbing of some dark, thin and fuzzing products containing wool is much lower than that of wet rubbing.

3. The color fastness to dry rubbing of some rough or raised fabrics, including paint dyeing and printing products, does not meet the minimum requirements of the standard.


1.1 Color fastness to wet rubbing

Direct dyes are used for the dyeing of cellulose fibers, and the color fastness to wet rubbing and the color fastness to washing are not ideal.

Causes:

The affinity of direct dyes to cellulose is mainly based on dipole attraction and dispersion. The combination of this adsorption is not strong, especially in the wet state, the hydrogen bond may be stronger.


Insoluble azo dyes dye cellulose fiber products, and their color fastness to rubbing is not ideal.

Causes:

AATCC Electronic Crockmeter

Factors Affecting the Color Fastness of Reactive Dyes to Wet Rubbing

1. The structure and characteristics of reactive dyes themselves

2. The properties of cellulose fabrics

3. Pre-treatment effect, cloth surface damage and smooth surface

4. Dyeing process and the effect of soaping after dyeing

5. The effect of fixing treatment after dyeing the fabric

6. The effect of dyeing fabric finishing and the effect of cellulose fiber degradation


Fiber fabrics dyed with reactive dyes will cause color transfer in the wet rubbing fastness test.

major factor:

The water-soluble dye fades the original color and stains the rubbing cloth during rubbing. Part of the dyed fiber breaks when rubbed, forming tiny colored fiber particles, causing staining.

The color fastness to wet rubbing of fabrics dyed with reactive dyes is closely related to the depth of dyeing. Among them, the supersaturation of the dye is the most important factor.


How to effectively improve the color fastness to wet rubbing of fabrics?

Proper pre-treatment of cellulose fiber before dyeing, such as mercerizing, singeing, cellulase finishing, desizing and scouring, bleaching, washing, and drying, can improve the surface finish and hair effect of the fabric, and reduce friction resistance. , Reduce floating color.


1.2 Color fastness to dry rubbing:

Some specific fabrics (lightweight fabrics, rough surface or sanded fabrics, raised fabrics) do not meet the standard requirements.

Lightweight fabrics fail to meet the requirements for dry friction resistance.

Causes:

Because the fabric structure is relatively loose, during dry friction, the sample will partly slip with the movement of the friction head under the action of pressure and friction, which increases the friction resistance and improves the friction efficiency.

The color fastness to dry rubbing of velvet or napped fabric is decreased.

Causes:

The fluff on the surface of the fabric and the surface of the friction cloth are at a certain angle, not parallel, so that the friction resistance of the friction head increases when it reciprocates.

Moisture absorption and quick drying test
Moisture absorption and quick drying testSep 22, 2023

Moisture absorption and quick drying test

Under the high temperature weather in summer, many regions have activated the "steaming and baking mode". In this extremely hot and rainy climate, various heat resistant products have been favored by consumers, and the moisture absorption and quick drying properties of textiles have attracted much attention. It is crucial to evaluate the moisture absorption and quick drying performance of summer functional textiles. These characteristics play an important role in ensuring comfort and performance under hot and humid conditions. Moisture absorption and quick drying performance refers to the characteristic of a fabric that can quickly absorb moisture and timely discharge it, thereby maintaining a dry and comfortable human body. Various methods can be used to test the moisture absorption and quick drying performance of textiles. Here are some commonly used techniques: 1. MMT (Moisture Measurement Tester): The MMT method involves placing fabric samples between a warm, moist container and a dry, cool container. Measure the moisture transport through the fabric by monitoring the changes in temperature and humidity over time. This test can provide information about moisture absorption and rapid drying properties. 2. Spray test: in this test, spray the specified amount of water onto the surface of the fabric sample. Record the time required for water absorption and fabric drying. The faster the drying time, the better the water management performance. 3. Drying time test: In this simple test, wet fabric samples are suspended in a controlled environment and the time required for complete drying of the fabric is recorded. Fabrics with fast drying properties will dry faster. 4. Absorption test: This test determines the speed and amount of liquid absorption by the fabric. Apply a known amount of liquid to the fabric sample and measure the absorption rate. Fabrics with high water absorption often absorb moisture more effectively. These tests can provide quantitative data on the moisture absorption and rapid drying properties of fabrics. It is convenient for us to use these results to evaluate and compare various fabric formulations and finishes, which can help develop high-performance textiles for summer and sportswear applications.
