Light is made up of bands pf varying wavelengths
![Page 4: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Reflection
• White can only be broken up by prisms or by colorants such as pigments and dyes
• This surface has no colorant so the light is reflected
![Page 5: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
It can be fully absorbed by the surface
![Page 6: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Or a transparent surface may let all of the light pass through or a colored surface
may absorb part of the spectrum
![Page 7: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Bands of light mix together to produce lighter colors
![Page 8: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
A “blue” surface absorbs red, orange, and yellow light
![Page 9: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
A “yellow” surface absorbs blue and violet light
![Page 10: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The pigment primaries absorb and reflect different combinations of colored light
![Page 11: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Interference: the kind of surface light hits can affect the way light waves behave
![Page 12: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Structural Color
• Iridescence• Luminescence• Refraction• Diffraction• Fluorescence• Phosphorescence
• Materials that light hits can cause a multitude of effects
![Page 13: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The nature of fiber affects the way light appears
![Page 14: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Fiber reflects, refracts, absorbs and diffuses
![Page 15: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The unique color properties of fiber depend on the interaction of fabric structure, dye application, and light
“Humidity” (2002)
![Page 16: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Pigments and Dyes
• A dye is a colorant that goes into solution or dissolves. Dye particles break apart into single molecules
• Pigment particles remain clustered together in suspension
• Dyes have a chemical affinity for fiber but pigments do not
Pigmentparticles
Dyemolecules
![Page 17: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Pigments and Dyes
• Pigment molecules carry their own color
• They do not unite with fiber molecules chemically and must be fixed to the fibers with bonding agents
• In man made fibers pigments can be mixed into the fiber solution before it is formed
• Dyes migrate out of the solution, are absorbed into the fiber, and diffuse from the surface of the fiber toward its center. There they either:– Bond chemically with fiber
moleculesOR
– React chemically with fiber molecules to produce permanent, enlarged colored fiber molecules
• Both situations are permanent
![Page 18: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Dye molecules must be firmly fixed to fiber
Chain fiber molecule
Dye molecules
![Page 19: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
A negative dye molecule links with a positive fiber molecule at a dye site. The process is affected by surface charge, temperature, and agitation. Different fibers have different numbers of dye sites. Wool fiber has 1000 dye sites, silk has 100, and cotton has less than 10
![Page 20: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Assembly of dye molecules at the fiber surface
• When soaked in water all fibers acquire an electric potential or surface charge
• Cellulosic fibers acquire negative charges• Protein fibers acquire both positive and negative
charges, depending on the pH of the water• Acid solutions help break down protein fibers to
allow dye sites access to the dye• Cellulose fibers must be soaked in alkaline
solution• Salt is used to set up electrical movement that
initiates the movement of dye molecules in search of a resting place on the fiber
![Page 21: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Once the dye molecule enters the fiber, it has a a chemical reaction with it. It is
enlarged, which prevents its exit.
![Page 22: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Color is produced when a divided molecule is united.
![Page 23: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Acid Dyes
• Used mainly on wool, silk, and nylon*• They have acid chemical groups in their dye
molecules• They use an acid dye bath to produce the
chemical reaction• Reaction involves acid, salt, heat, agitation, and
time– Amount of acid and rate at which it is added affects the
rate at which the dye bonds– Salt slows the bonding process, helping the dye color
the fiber evenly. It attaches to the dye first.
![Page 24: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Gradually, dye replaces the salt and bonds with the fiber. Leveling is achieved
when this happens at an even rate.
![Page 25: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• Heat affects the leveling of the dye bath by speeding up the chemical reaction
• Generally the dye bonds slowly until 160° F
• Agitation helps keep both chemicals and heat evenly distributed
• The full immersion time is necessary to allow the dye to be light fast and wash fast
![Page 26: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Structural Orientation
• Structural orientation is the arrangement of parts relative to one another within a fiber piece– Molecules in a fiber– Fibers in a piece of yarn– Yarn in a piece of fabric
• It affects moisture and dye absorption• Textile polymers are chains with a monomer for
each link• Fiber polymers have the same structure that fibers
do
![Page 27: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Chromophores and auxochromes
• The ability of dye to create color comes from chromophores in the dye molecules
• Auxochromes regulate the intensity of color. They are chemical groups that make dyes water soluble. They also provide chemical groups that form bonds between the dye and fiber
• A dye bath must contain both chromophores and auxochromes, either from the dyestuff alone or a mixture of dye and other added chemicals
![Page 28: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The structural orientation of the polymers within a fiber varies, It affects dye results
and other fiber properties
![Page 29: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Dye and molecular orientation
• Amorphous areas of a fiber take more dye than highly oriented areas
• They will be darker in the dye bath
• A fiber’s character depends on the color changes that take place from amorphous areas to crystalline or oriented areas
• All fibers contain all three areas in different degrees
![Page 30: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Fibers
• Fiber molecules are arranged in fiber filaments
• Loose arrangement of fibers allows good penetration
• Fibers are often dyed before they are made into yarn for this reason
• Fibers are combed before they are made into yarn
Cotton fiber
![Page 31: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Different fibers have different surfaces
![Page 32: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Yarn staples
Lightly combed = good penetration
Carded and combed= fairly good penetration
Tightly packed = poor penetration
![Page 33: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The shape of the fiber filament affects appearance
Wool fibers are crimped and create an absorbent surface
![Page 34: Dyes and Fibers Carol LeBaron Chemistry and Art February 15-17, 2004.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649cf95503460f949cabb6/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
