Waxes Dyes

What is Wax Dyeing?

Wax dyeing is a traditional textile dyeing technique where wax is used to create patterns on fabric before dyeing it. The wax is applied to the fabric in a design or pattern using a tool such as a tjanting or a brush, creating areas where the dye cannot penetrate. When the fabric is then immersed in a dye bath, the areas covered in wax resist the dye and remain the original colour of the fabric. The wax is then removed, revealing the dyed fabric with the original design or pattern created by the wax. This technique is commonly used in batik and other textile art forms.

Now let us understand how dyes used in Waxes industry plays an important role in dyeing applications.

Types of Dyes used in Wax Dyeing

Reactive dyes
Reactive dyes are commonly used in many wax dyeing applications, including shirts, dresses, scarves, pillow covers, tablecloths, wall hangings, bags, purses, wall hangings, quilts, and crafts. These dyes are known for their ability to create bright and vibrant colours that are long-lasting and have excellent colourfastness. Reactive dyes are so named because they chemically react with the fabric, forming a strong bond that ensures the colour will not wash out easily. The dyeing process involves dissolving the dye in water and then immersing the fabric in the dye bath. The fabric is then steamed or washed to set the dye. Reactive dyes work well on natural fibers such as cotton, silk, and wool, and can produce a range of colours and shades. They are also environmentally friendly and easy to use, making them a popular choice for wax dyeing applications.

Acid Dyes
Acid dyes are commonly used in wax dyeing applications for bags and purses. These dyes are designed to work with protein fibers such as wool, silk, and nylon, which are commonly used in bag and purse construction. Acid dyes are so named because they require an acidic environment to bind to the fiber. The dyeing process involves dissolving the dye in water and adding an acid, such as vinegar or citric acid, to create the acidic environment. The fabric is then immersed in the dye bath, and the dye penetrates the fiber, creating vibrant and long-lasting colours. Acid dyes offer excellent colourfastness and can produce a range of colours and shades, making them a popular choice for wax dyeing applications. They also work well with wax-resist techniques, creating intricate and unique designs on bags and purses.
