1. Principios básicos de la impresión reactiva

Reactive technology achieves coloration through a chemical reaction between reactive dyes and fiber molecules. Unlike traditional methods that use thickeners with low penetration, reactive dyes form a covalent bond with the fibers. This ensures that the dyes are firmly fixed, significantly improving color fastness.

The process typically involves heating, allowing dye molecules to permeate the fibers. This results in vibrant, stable color effects, making it especially suitable for natural fibers like cotton, linen, and mulberry silk used in custom garments.

Respeto del medio ambiente y sostenibilidad

Reactive printing reduces pollution with lower wastewater emissions and higher efficiency, aligning with global sustainability goals.

Mayor durabilidad y resistencia a las arrugas

Since the printing process has minimal impact on fibers, the natural softness and elasticity of silk are maintained. This extends the lifespan of high-end items like scarves and ties.

Despite its advantages, challenges remain. The process requires precise control of temperature and pH values; improper operation can lead to uneven results. Additionally, large-scale production still consumes significant water resources, and costs are higher than traditional methods. Docsun continuously optimizes these processes for our Docsun Design Pattern offerings.

4. Conclusión

Reactive technology has become the ideal choice for dyeing mulberry silk fabrics, preserving natural luster and softness while enhancing durability. As technology advances, its role in the high-end textile industry will only grow.
