One-Step Pad Dyeing and DP Finishing of Cotton: Part 1. Reactive Dyes with DMDHEU. Issue 3 (May 2015) - Li, Shiqi
One-step dyeing and durable press (DP) finishing offers potential advantages such as energy savings, reduced production time, and quick response to the market. In the present research, six reactive dyes were used in combination with DMDHEU, a DP finishing agent, in one-step and conventional two-step dyeing and finishing processes. Colorfastness properties and DP ratings of fabrics treated by the one-step dyeing and finishing process were comparable to those fabrics dyed and finished in separate steps.
