Term
| During WWI, synthetics were cut off from the U.S. in Europe so... |

| What are the Stages of Dyeing? |
|
Definition
Fiber Dyeing
Yarn Dyeing
Piece Dyeing
Product Dyeing |
|
|
Term
| What are some types of Fiber Dyeing? |
|
Definition
Solution Dyeing
Stock or Fiber Dyeing |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Add color to the solution or the dope before the fiber is spun out
Because of this, the color becomes an integral part of the fiber
Color fast to most color degradants |
|
|
Term
| What are some other names for Solution Dyeing? |
|
Definition
Mass Pigmentation
Solution Dyeing
Dope Dyeing |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The dye is added to the loose fibers before they are spun into yarn
putting color into the solution, the dope, or the loose fibers
good dye penetration, but quite expensive
Use this when you want a heather effect (a gray sweatshirt or t-shirt(gray and white mixed in)) |
|
|
Term
| What are three characteristics of fiber Dyeing? |
|
Definition
Best penetration
Most expensive
More permanent |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
less costly than fiber dyeing but more costly than piece or product dyeing
This is when you dye the yarn at yarn stage |
|
|
Term
| What are some examples of yarn Dyeing? |
|
Definition
Tapestry (yarns are one color, not printed on)
denim
gingham
chambray |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
When a bolt or roll of fabric is dyed
usually produces solid colored fabrics
Biggest advantage is that you can delay color decisions in order to follow fashion trends prcisely and you will wait till a lot of gray goods come in to dye them |
|
|
Term
| What are the two types of dyeing? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
You have different fibers which results in different colors (you get different colors)
(velvet: acetate and rayon-- purple warp yarns and a gray surface) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
You have different fibers but you get one color
(Broadcloth- Polyester and cotton are both dyed as the same blue color which results in one solid color) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
If you decide to hold off the dye once product is made up, such as pants or blouse or towel, you can use this process
Have to be really careful so you get a level, uniform color throughout the product
Another concern is that you have to really experiment with any components you're using in the garment so they all react the way you want them to. Have to do textile testing ahead of time (buttons, threads, trim) |

|
Term
| What are 2 characteristics of product dyeing? |
|
Definition
Worst penetration
least expensive
(towels, pants, tops, gloves) |

| Types of Printing Processes |
|
Definition
Direct Printing
Warp Printing
Discharge Printing
Resist Printing
Screen Printing
Stencil Printing
Heat Transfer |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Apply color directly to the fabric in the pattern and at the location that's desired in the finished fabric |
|
|
Term
| What are the three kinds of direct printing? |
|
Definition
Block
Direct Roller
Duplex Printing |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
hand process
oldest technique
seldom done commercially because it's costly and slow |
|
|
Term
| Examples of Direct Roller Printing |
|
Definition
Houndstooth
Pinwheel Pique
Moire Taffeta
Faille
(process: heat transfer of printing are competing with the roller printing market) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When they print on both sides of the fabric |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Done to the warp yarns
warp yarns are printed
You identify warp prints by their hazy effect (not clean cut, if you ravel off adjacent yarns, the warp yarns are printed but the filling yarns are the color of the background (which is usually just one color) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Piecedyed fabrics where the design is made by removing the color
Usually done on dark backgrounds
Process:
They put on a discharge paste (a chemical) and will print it on the fabric in the design that they want and the chemical will take the color out of the fabric
You can tell it's discharge printing by looking at the back of it (black showing through) |

| Piecedyed fabrics where the color is prevented from entering the fabric |

Term
| What are the kinds of Resist Printing? |
|
Definition
Batiking
Ikating
Tie-Dyeing |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Piece-dyed fabrics where the color is prevented from entering the fabric |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Hand process where you take hot wax, pour it onto a fabric in the form of a design, and when the wax is set, the fabric is Piece dyed. What happens is that the wax prevents the color from penetrating into the wax portion. The wax will crack and break and leak onto the pattern sometimes, though
Add more than one color but start with light colors first so you can build up in colors
one of the harder processes

Definition
old method of resist printing
tie yarn, die it, weave it
Can do to only warp, only filling, or both
don't have a precise edge, have wicking look to them |

Definition
Resist print
hand process where yarn or fabric is wrapped
piece-dyed then remove the string
remove string |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Done by hand
build a frame, design is in the open screen and the other part is some resist solution
is a hand process but can be a machine process too
t-shirts
printing duffle bags with a sports team logo
Design is applied to mesh of screen, take a squeegee to the dye and pull across |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Precursor of screen printing
hand work; slow process |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Use heat and pressure which transfers the print onto the fabric
Advantages:
Better penetration
clarity of design
lower production costs
elimination of pollution problems
Disadvantages:
Disposal of waste paper |
