REACTIVE H SERIES DYES are monochlorotriazine reactive dyes having a low reactivity and low substantivity. Since these dyes have low reactivity, they require more severe conditions for fixation with cellulosic materials. They are readily soluble by pouring water of 80-85oC on powder & stirring well. They are applicable on cellulosic materials by both dyeing as well as printing methods.

In comparison with cold brand dyes, the `H’ series dyes require either a long steaming time or a high thermofixation temperature (with urea) for optimum fixation. H dyes of low to medium substantivity may lead to migration problem in dyeing prior to fixation.

When low concentration of highly substantive dyes are used, tailing becomes evident. Tailing is avoided by selecting dyes of low or medium substantivity, using small padding troughs fed to constant level and operating at the highest running speed commensurate with the needs of the rest of the process

Though `H’ dyes are of major interest for printing applications, a variety of dyeing methods are used for `H’ dyes.

i) Exhaust dyeing method (Jigger Machines)

Set the dye-bath with required amount of water at 40oC and add half the amount of dyestuff solution with 1-2 g/l resist salt, run for 1 turn and add the remaining half amount of dyestuff solution and run for another turn.

Then add half of the salt and start raising the temperature slowly. (such that 65 to 85oC temperature could be attained after two turns). Run for I turn and then add the remaining amount of the salt and give it another turn.

Now add half the amount of predissolved alkali and give one turn. Temperature is maintained at 80oC. Add remaining half amount of alkali and give another three turn for better fixation give two more turns and then drain the jigger.

Washing off procedure

In order to obtain maximum wet-fastness properties, brightness and purity of shades with consistent dyeing results. It is essential to give a through ‘Soaping’ to clear off unreached hydrolyzed dye from the dyed fabric.

The dyed fabric is rinsed repeatedly in cold water to remove of the alkali, salt and unfixed dye present and rinsed again in warm water not higher than 60oC then run in a bath containing:

Anionic detergent – 1/2 gms/liter for 15 minutes at the boil. Then rinse in warm water (up to 60 oC) and finally in cold water. The most satisfactory results in Washing off, particularly for piece goods are obtained by employing an open soaper or perforated Beam-washing machine. If such equipments are not available, conventional ones like jig or winch may be used. For yarn in the hank form open-vat is employed and for yarn in packaged form the package-dyeing machine itself used.

(B) Printing Methods

Due to low reactivity of thesedyes the print paste stabilitycontaining alkali is verygood. Secondly due to lowsubstantivity the hydrolyzeddyes have the least tendencyto stain adjacent white materialsand thus these dyes are morepopular for use by printingapplications, the differentprinting methods are as under:
