“…Moreover, as the aqueous dyeing of PET fibres using disperse dyes has been extensively studied 8,47,48,50,55,83,86,90,323,457,520,[558][559][560][561][562] and disperse dyes also enjoy usage on CA, CTA and PA fibres (eg, 50,83,462,463,561,[563][564][565][566][567] ), the following is intended to serve as a very brief, introductory overview of this quite large topic. Exhaust dyeing processes utilised for aqueous disperse dye/PET fibre and disperse dye/carrier/PET fibre systems comprise three temperature-regulated stages, namely, a heating up stage, an isothermal stage and a cooling down stage, as represented by the simple graphic displayed in Figure 23.…”
