TS 111 Lecture Notes - Lecture 8: Dry Cleaning, Dye, Pantone
Document Summary
Color-management systems: pervasive and necessary for large-scale dyeing production. Dyes: using chemical dyes called dyestuffs and the treatment of textile material in aqueous (water) solutions. Pigments: microscopic sized, insoluble colored particles made to adhere to a fabric. Depth if shade: darkness or lightness of color in dyeing. Affinity: when a particular dye is capable of combining with a fiber and can impart to it. Spectrometer: capable of analyzing the color of an input sample. Lab dip: a sample swatch of the dyeing. Metamerism: when two colors match each other under one light contraction, but look different from each other in a different light: color flare: indicates a fabric that has changed color because of the change in light source. Stock dyeing: refers to the dyeing of fibers, or stock, before it is spun into yarn. Top dyeing: dyeing of fiber before it is spun into yarn and serves the same purpose at stock dyeing- to produce soft, heather-like color effects.
