Dope dyeing, also known as solution dyeing, is a process used to add color to synthetic fibers during their production rather than after they’ve been spun into yarn
Process : In dope dyeing, the color is added to the polymer melt before the fibers are extruded and spun into yarn. This means the dyeing occurs at the fiber level rather than the yarn or fabric level.
Benefits : This method integrates the color into the polymer matrix, leading to superior colorfastness and less environmental impact compared to traditional dyeing methods.
Home Textiles : Used in items like upholstery, curtains, and bedding where a deep black color and durability are desired.
