Dispersing Properties
KAYACRYL™ Basic ED Dyes are dispersed basic dyes that can be dispersed readily in water even in high concentrations. When dispersing KAYACRYL™ Basic ED Dyes, it is recommended to use lukewarm water around 120ºF (50º C). Pasting with acetic acid is not recommended.
The dispersed solution of KAYACRYL™ Basic ED Dyes displays an anionic character, making them compatible with other anionic compounds.
KAYACRYL™ ED Basic Dyes have considerably good stability in a wide dye bath pH range.
Dyeing Behavior
The transition point of cationic dyeable polyester fibers is 220º-230ºF (105º-110ºC), when quick exhaustion suddenly occurs. This means that careful control in raising the temperature near the transition point is required in order to obtain level dyings. Ordinary cationic retarders cannot be used because of the anionic nature of KAYACRYL™ Basic ED Dyes.
KAYACRYL™ Basic ED vs Conventional Basic Dye
- The positively charged dye is naturally attracted to the negatively charged fiber.
- This attraction is controlled by a negative retarding agent surrounding KAYACRYL™ Basic ED dyes.
- As the temperature rises, the retarding agent gradually moves away from the dye.
- KAYACRYL™ Basic ED dyes bond with the fibers slowly to produce even, level dyeings without assistance from compatabilizers or leveling agents.
