  • Staining Wood and Natural Materials Using PRO Washfast Water Based
    Staining Wood and Natural Materials using PRO WashFast Water-Based Dyes Please read directions carefully before starting. Many materials, whose surface is only slightly wettable, may be colored with water-based (water soluble) dyes resulting in colored surfaces that do not hide the grain of the wood or the character of the substrate. This process is also suitable for the coloration of feathers, retouching wool tapestries and wool or nylon carpeting. Basically anything that does not have the high wash fastness requirements of wearable clothing fabrics. Wet fastness is good. Always do test samples before working on a large project. For additional information visit our web site at www.prochemicalanddye.com. Wear rubber gloves, apron, or old clothes. Utensils used for dyeing should never be used for food preparation. Procedure: 1. Dissolve the PRO WashFast Acid dye by placing 1 tsp (2.5 gm) of the dye in a one cup (250 ml) Pyrex container. Add 1 or 2 tsp (5 or 10 ml) of boiling water to make a paste. Gradually add more boiling water with continuous stirring to the 2 cup (125 ml) mark. Set aside to cool. 2. When cooled to room temperature, fill to one cup (250 ml) mark with denatured grain alcohol or Isopropyl rubbing alcohol (90%). Store in re-sealable glass container. 3. Apply to surface of substrate with foam brush or immerse object into dye solution for several minutes. Air dry and repeat procedure as often as needed for deeper color allowing previous coat to dry thoroughly. 4. After thorough drying, wood and similar materials may be coated to seal in the color and give lasting protection to the wood itself.

  • Dyeing of Polyamide Fibres
    Dyeing of Polyamide Fibres Polyamides • Nylon a Polyamide, it is a condensation polymers. The formation of a polyamide is same as the synthesis of a simple amide. One prominent difference is that both the amine and the acid monomer units each have two functional groups ‐ one on each side of the molecule. In this polymer, the repeating units are identical. • Nylon is made from 1,6‐diaminohexane and adipic acid by elimination of water molecules (‐H from the amine and ‐OH from acid as shown in red on the graphic). • A simple representation is ‐[A‐B‐A‐B‐A‐B]‐. Nylon 66 • Nylon 66, was discovered in 1931 by Wallace Cruthers at DuPont. It was the first fully synthetic fiber produced. It was introduced to women in nylon stockings in 1939 with huge success. During World War II, nylon production was used to make parachutes and other items needed by the military. • Nylon is very similar in structure to the protein polyamides in silk and wool as shown earlier, but is far stronger, more durable, more chemically inert, and cheaper to produce as compared to the natural fibers. Polyamide Fibres • It’s a Nylon fibre we generally know. • It consists of multiples of six carbon chains, in which half the end of carbon being converted to carbonyl and other half to imino nitrogen. • It is thermoplastic , is sensitive to heat and tension applied in various texturizing processes. • Total temperature‐tension history of yarn determines the degree of orientation in textured yarns. Dyeing of Polyamide Fibres • Acid, metal complexes, disperse reactive and disperse dyes are the important classes of dyes used in dyeing of nylon.

It has stood the test of time as the standard stain for histologic examination of human tissues since it was independently introduced in 1865 and 1875, by Böhmer and Fischer respectively. Common problems, pitfalls and troubleshooting tips. H & E is the primary diagnostic technique for evaluation of morphology in the histopathology labs. One of the best nuclear stains. H & E provides easier identification of histological features than T-blue. It is easy and simple to use. Stains are inexpensive, yet reliable and informative. It is stable and durable stain, lasting years without fading Hematoxylin is a natural dye extracted from the heartwood of logwood trees which is indigenous in Central America, Caribbean and other tropical countries. It is misleading to call hematoxylin stain as it alone does not stain. It has to convert to hematein. Hematein is what we call hematoxylin. It is a basic dye and carries a (+) charge. Affinity for basic dye is called basophilic.

  • ABSTRACT YI, DING. a Comparison of Mordant and Natural Dyes In
    ABSTRACT YI, DING. A Comparison of Mordant and Natural Dyes in Dyeing Cotton Fabrics. (Under the direction of Dr. Harold S. Freeman and Dr. Peter J. Hauser). Mordant dyes constitute a class of synthetic colorants that are applied to textile fibers mainly through the aid of transition metal ions such as Cr3+. The resultant dye-metal complexes are key to the fastness properties produced on wool. In the same way, most natural dyes require the use of a mordant to have coloring power on textiles such as cotton. Unlike mordant dyes on wool, the fastness properties of natural dyes on cotton are generally quite low. Consequently, they have largely been replaced by synthetic dyes that are more cost effective, brighter, and more durable under end-use applications. Interest in green technologies has led to renewed consideration of natural dyes for textile coloration because they are biodegradable and do not involve manufacturing processes requiring genotoxic aromatic amines. Interestingly, such a shift would bring dyeing technology full circle to a family of colorants lacking the vibrancy and technical properties of most synthetic dyes. However, similarities between the dyeing method for mordant and natural dyes brought to mind the potential for reducing the level of synthetic dyes used commercially by combining suitable dyes from these two classes for dyeing textiles. This thesis research was devoted to stage 1 of this idea, namely the evaluation of mordant dyes as colorants for cotton fabric. With this in mind, dyes such as Mordant Blue 13, Mordant Brown 40, Mordant Orange 6 and Mordant Yellow 8 were applied to cotton using various dyeing times, temperatures, dye bath concentrations and mordants.
