Continuous Pad/Thermosol dyeing of polyester calls for high energy Orcocilacron™ disperse dyes and antimigrant to prevent migration of pre-cured disperse dye on the polyester fiber.

• Prepare and pre-scour polyester.
• Set a bath at 90°F(32°C) containing:
  • X% owg                                   Orcocilacron™ dye solution properly prepared
  • 13-0.25 oz/gal(1.0-2.0 g/L)      Orconol CHSA Conc™
  • 2-4 oz/gal(15-30 g/L)               Orco Antimigrant U-1300™
• Pad goods at 35-65% pickup at 90°-115°F(32°-46°C) and pre-dry goods before curing.
• Heat-thermosol at 375°-400°F (190°-204°C) for 75-90 seconds.
• Cool slowly and rinse.
• After-scour(after-clear) with:
  • 2 – 4% owg  Suitable Reducing Agent such as Sodium Hydrosulphite at a temperature of 140°F(60°C) and run for 15 -20 minutes.
  • Drop bath and rinse well.
