Pad dry method


Pad dry method:
Steps:
1)    Fabric is first padded in a padder with reactive dye in presence of an alkali.
2)    Padded fabric is then passed through a squeezing roller into a dryer. As a dryer cylinder, stenter etc may be used. During drying due to higher temperature fixation of dye in fibre increases and at the same time water is removed by evaporation. 
3)    After drying fabric is washed in a washing machine to remove unfixed dye.
