The Relationship Between Polyester DTY Dyeing Failure And The Selection Of Titanium Dioxide

The Relationship Between Polyester DTY Dyeing Failure And The Selection Of Titanium Dioxide

Polyester DTY (Draw texturing yarn), that is, stretched textured yarn, is a finished yarn that is stretched continuously or simultaneously on a texturing machine and processed by false twisting. It can be directly used for weaving, so the dyeing uniformity of polyester DTY directly affects finished fabric quality. Among them, the dyeing M rate is one of the important indicators to test the quality of DTY. The uniformity of dyeing will directly reflect on the woven fabric. If the dyeing M rate is low, it means that the dyeing uniformity is poor, and there are many defective yarns, which not only cause polyester DTY manufacturers the excellent rate of DTY dyed yarn will cause hundreds of thousands of meters of fabrics to be degraded, which will seriously affect the economic benefits of enterprises. Analyzing and solving the causes of poor DTY dyeing will help improve product quality and reduce unnecessary losses.

The morphological characteristics of poor polyester DTY staining include F filaments (segmented filaments), K filaments (curled filaments), D filaments (deep filaments), and L filaments (light filaments).

Analysis of the causes of poor polyester yarn dyeing:

Polyeater DTY processing is the last process in the polyester fiber /synthetic fiber production process. There are many factors affecting the polyester dyeing M rate, including polyester raw materials, polyester spinning process conditions, polyester DTY process settings and polyester fiber production equipment. Among them, the fluctuation of Tio2 (titanium dioxide) concentration will also affect the polyester yarn dyeing performance.

The depth of polyester fiber dyeing is affected by the fluctuation of the concentration of matting agent in polyester raw materials. Increasing the concentration of matting agent increases the roughness of the polyester fiber surface. Since Tio2 acts as a nucleating agent, as the concentration of matting agent increases, the crystallization time of fiber formation is shortened, and the crystallization, the faster the speed, the greater fluctuation of Tio2 central value will affect the polyester dyeing rate and uniformity of polyester DTY dyeing. For example, when the concentration of Tio2 in the raw material fluctuates, the spun polyester fiber will show L silk when dyed at the part with high Tio2 concentration, and the part with low concentration will be D silk, F silk may appear if the concentration changes frequently.Therefore, all textile companies pay great attention to the choice of titanium dioxide.

Jinan Ogilvy Chemical Co., Ltd. has been focusing on the whitening research of recycled polyester staple fibers, polyester POY, and polyester DTY for many years. At present, in the whitening of recycled polyester staple fiber products, fluorescent whitening agents( optical brightener) or optical brightener masterbatche are used for whitening, or the method of combining fluorescent whitening agent optical brightener OB-1 with blue pigment together to achieve whiteness. In the whitening of polyester POY, polyester DTY and other products, the self-designed and developed titanium dioxide masterbatch (fiber grade Tio2 masterbatch) is widely used. The unique titanium dioxide Tio2 product and strict product control process enable polyester POY DTY to obtain excellent LAB value, and the blueness can be controlled while the whiteness is increased. At the same time, the polyester dyeing effect of the product is good, which has won praise from domestic and foreign customers from textile industry.
