What are the advantages of reactive printing?

Nowadays, many consumers will choose active printed fabrics when they purchase home textile bedding products, but they don't know what the reactive printing is. What are the advantages of reactive printing? What other printings besides active printing? China National Textiles joined the network today.

Active printing is also known as reactive dyes. It contains reactive groups that react with fiber molecules. In the dyeing and printing process, the reactive groups of the dye form a bond with the fiber molecules such that the dye and the fibers form a unitary body. As one of the most popular printing technologies, reactive printing has been widely spread, and it is widely used in cotton and linen fabrics.

The advantages of reactive printing are reactive printing fabrics, environmentally friendly, low formaldehyde content, bright color and good color fastness. The hand feel is soft after printing, and the printed parts are not sticky. No azo and formaldehyde are added, no harmful substances are contained, and it does not fade or shrink when washed.

What other prints besides reactive printing?

There are two main methods for printing and dyeing home textile fabrics, one is traditional active printing and the other is paint printing and dyeing.

The difference between reactive printing and paint printing: reactive printing: using reactive dyes to penetrate into the fabric, and the printing of the printed coating: using the coating to cover the fabric, and the printing active printing is not added with azo and formaldehyde during the printing process, and does not contain A substance that is harmful to the human body and does not fade when washed. The impression of active printing and dyeing is soft, and the effect of printing and dyeing is good from both positive and negative aspects;

The paint printing process is simple and the cost is low. Disadvantages: poor color fastness, not resistant to washing; hard hand feeling, rough feeling with skin contact; poor environmental performance, higher formaldehyde content than activity; sticky part of printing, especially in summer Direct contact with the skin can be sticky and uncomfortable.

The paint printing is combined with the fabric in a physical bonding manner, and the reactive printing is directly combined with the fabric by Van der Waals force. In general, the reactive printing feel is softer, and the rubbing fastness of the coating printing is relatively inferior. In terms of price, reactive printing is generally more expensive.

4 ways to identify reactive printing and paint printing:

1, look at the color: paint printing color is not bright, the color is dim, giving a feeling that the color is floating on the cloth surface.

2, look at the gloss: the general paint printing fabrics have been "rolling" process before leaving the factory to cover the shortcomings of its cloth surface is not smooth, so if you see the oily feeling of the cloth surface, it may be paint printing It is. The finish obtained by calendering is one-off and will disappear after washing.

3. Ask the taste: The paint printing adds a lot of adhesive, and it is directly shaped without washing, so there will be a strong taste in the finished fabric.

4, feel the touch: paint printing feel hard, but this move may not work. This is because, in order to cover this shortcoming, the fabric manufacturer adds a lot of softener during the setting, and the finished product will be softer after being calendered. Only the softener will fall off after washing, and the final prototype will reveal a sentence:

Reactive printing: the use of reactive dyes to penetrate into the fabric, and the formation of printed paint printing: the use of paint to cover the fabric, and the formation of the printing.
