The extent of the dye fixation
as well as the fastness properties of the obtained dyeing are determined by the
mode of interaction between the dye molecules and the textile fibres by one or
more of the following mechanisms:
1.
Ionic bonding – Protein fibres with acid and basic dyes
2.
Covalent bonding – Reactive dyes with cellulosic fibres
3.
Hydrogen bonding – Direct dyes with cellulosic fibres
4.
Insolublisation of pre-dissolved dyes following their entry into fibres –
Vat and Sulphur dyes with cellulosic fibres
5. Adsorption of dye-vapour –
volatile disperse dyes with polyester
