Can textile printing paste be used for garment dyeing?
Printing paste, also called water-based pigment printing paste, is mainly used for textile pigment printing. Water-based paint paste dyeing can save dyeing materials, save energy and water, has a simple process, is suitable for textiles of various fibers, and has good reproducibility. It is increasingly favored by textile printing and dyeing manufacturers. Can water-based printing paste be used for garment dyeing? The answer is: yes.
Here, let’s talk about some of the advantages of water-based pigment printing paste when used for garment dyeing compared with conventional dyes for garment dyeing:
1. Since the printing paste pigment particles have no affinity for any fiber structure and are not selective for various fibers, they are suitable for dyeing various fibers when paired with appropriate water-based binders, including glass fibers that cannot be dyed with dyes. Particularly suitable for dyeing blended and interwoven fabrics;
2. Based on the same reasons as above, since there is no dyeing problem when color matching pigments, water-based paint pastes are easy to match colors and have good reproducibility, and it is easier to control color differences when enlarging small samples;
3． Because pigments of various color development systems can be used as raw materials at the same time, the water-based pigment printing paste has a uniform color spectrum and good light and weather fastness. Unlike when dyeing with dyes, because the chromatography or color fastness properties of different types of dyes are often incomplete or unbalanced, there will be certain difficulties in selection;
4． It is easy to obtain special dyeing effects, such as double-sided dyeing, natural or silver dyeing, simultaneous processing of paint paste and dye or finishing agent, etc.;
5. The dyeing process of textile coating paste is short, saving energy, reducing sewage and reducing costs.
In addition, textile printing color paste is used in garment dyeing, mainly for denim clothing, shirts, casual wear, beach pants, corduroy clothing, cotton or silk cotton, linen cotton short-sleeves, cultural shirts, linen cotton clothing, etc. At the same time, it has an obvious washing effect. After being processed with cellulase, the whitening and retro feeling on the surface of the clothes will be more obvious, which is different from dyeing. The original dyeing effect will be maintained in the gaps between the fibers, giving people a clear-cut look. The three-dimensional effect not only has the style of denim, but also can achieve diversification of colors, which is unmatched by dye dyeing. <br /
