Advantages of the Reactive Dyes

Advantages of the Reactive Dyes :

·       Permanency of the colour :

Fibre Reactive Dyes can be easily said to be the most permanent of all dye types. This is because of an unique quality, unlike other dyes, it can actually form a covalent bond with the substrate (cellulose or protein molecule). After the formation of the bond, there is only one molecule, as the molecule of the is now part of the cellulose fiber molecule.

·       Easy washing :

The fibres that are dyed with reactive dyes can be safely dyed even with white garments without the danger of colouring it.

·       Chemical Binding :

The chemical bonds as explained above significantly improves the product’s colour stability and washability. Thus, no doubt reactive dyeing of cotton is presently the most popular textile dyeing process in the world.
