During subsequent processing, if the stentering temperature is relatively high, some disperse dyes may sublimate and re-migrate to the fabric surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Such changes may further affect the soaping color fastness, ironing color fastness and final appearance of the fabric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Especially for dark or sensitive colors,&nbsp;such as bright red, black and blue, if there is&nbsp;dye migration or sublimation, it will not only affect the quality of finished product, but also may increase dyeing mills&#8217;&nbsp;repair pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For export-oriented dyeing mills, it is particularly&nbsp;necessary to control such problem in advance, because customers usually not only focus on the initial color but also pay attention to the color fastness performance after subsequent processing and use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_the_Dyeing_Mills_Bosses_Care_about_Most_Is_Not_Just_Color_Fastness\"><\/span><strong>What the Dyeing Mills&#8217; Bosses Care about Most Is Not Just Color Fastness<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From a business perspective, choosing a fixing agent&nbsp;actually involves multiple aspects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first is the <strong>stability of finished product quality<\/strong>.&nbsp;If the color fastness of fabric decreases after stentering, it may need to be reprocessed, which will increase production time and energy consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The second is <strong>the production efficiency<\/strong>. If traditional finishing process requires&nbsp;additional intermediate processing steps, it means more equipment occupation, manual operation and energy consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The third is<strong>\u00a0the product compatibility<\/strong>. If the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluelakechem.com\/hi\/process\/fixing-agent\/\">fixing agent<\/a><\/strong> cannot be used together with existing <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluelakechem.com\/hi\/process\/softener\/\">\u0938\u0949\u092b\u093c\u094d\u0928\u0930<\/a><\/strong> or <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluelakechem.com\/hi\/process\/silicone-oil\/\">silicone oil<\/a><\/strong>, engineer may need to re-design the stentering process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The last is <strong>environmental compliance<\/strong>.
