    Dyeing - Wikipedia Page 1 of 5 Dyeing From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Dyeing is the process of adding color to textile products like fibers, yarns, and fabrics.[1] Dyeing is normally done in a special solution containing dyes and particular chemical material. After dyeing, dye molecules have uncut chemical bond with fiber molecules. The temperature and time controlling are two key factors in dyeing. There are mainly two classes of dye, natural and man-made. The primary source of dye, historically, has generally been nature, with the dyes being extracted from animals or plants.

Different classes of dyes are used for different types of fiber and at different stages of the textile production process, from loose fibers through yarn and cloth to complete garments. Acrylic fibers are dyed with basic dyes, while nylon and protein fibers such as wool and silk are dyed with acid dyes, and polyester yarn is dyed with disperse dyes. Cotton is dyed with a range of dye types, including vat dyes, and modern synthetic reactive and direct dyes. Cotton being dyed manually in contemporary India.

Abstract i Abstract "Physics Is A Function Of Size. " The aim of the research is to create a new interactive communication system by 're-cabling' fabrics for releasing fragrances in 21st century fashion design. A new development, taking inspiration from biology, conjures up Multi-Sensorial Fabrics - based around the sense of smell. Using the theory that 'Smell Is Nanotechnology' and that biology works by nano-machines, biological actions can be miniaturised (such as 'sensing' in the animal world) to create an integrated system called THE WELLNESS COLLECTION. Fragrances (and eventually medication, monitoring devices and digital information) will be actively 'pulsed' electronically through a cabling device system which will 'mimic' the human senses and in particular the scent glands in our bodies and be literally incorporated into the fabric structure.

    SPORTSWEAR COMPANY SPORTSWEAR COMPANY AN INTRODUCTION 1 HIstory OF an IDea 2 MANAGEMENT PROFILE: MR CARLO RIVETTI (PRESIDENT) 3 TWO BRANDS, ONE STYLE Sportswear Company HOW A NEW PRODUCT IS BORN 4 C.P. Company BranD PROFILE Stores Corporate IDENTITY GLOBAL PRESENCE 5 Stone ISLAND BranD PROFILE Stores Corporate IDENTITY GLOBAL PRESENCE THE HISTORY OF AND IDEA Its name belongs to the recent past but it draws on a history of entrepreneurial success that makes it one of the most well respected companies in the panorama of «made in Italy» informal clothing. Sportswear Company was first set up in Ravarino, a town on the border between the provinces of Bologna and Modena in 1974. At that time it was known as Chester Perry. In 1975, it changed its name to C.P. Company: this marked the start of a brand that was destined to revolutionize the whole idea of informal clothing, declining shape and content well beyond the traditional jeans and casual clothing and charting the unexplored territory of new fabrics, new lines and new functionality. It was during this process that Stone Island, the second brand destined to flank C.P. Company, took shape in 1982. Stone Island emerged surprisingly by chance, following a dye test on a typically industrial fabric, the cloth used for truck tarpaulins. The extreme originality of its design has been a hallmark of these unique garments at the forefront of innovative clothing. C.P. Company was taken over in the mid Eighties by the GFT Group and Trabaldo Togna. Under the guidance of the new managing director, Carlo Rivetti, one of the controlling shareholders of GFT together with his cousin Marco, the Ravarino-based company became the center of sportswear clothing production for the large group from Turin.
