General
The LANASET® dyeing system is a versatile and comprehensive system for dyeing wool and wool
blends. The LANASET® range comprises modified, tinctorially strong 1:2 metal complex, acid and
reactive dyes with high wet and light fastness. The dyes cover the shade spectrum systematically.
Almost all fashion shades can be produced economically using simple combinations of these dyes.
Nearly identical dyeing properties and high exhaustion result in excellent compatibility and reproducibility.
For all depths of shade LANASET® dyes are applied at pH 4.5 –the isoelectric region of wool–, leaving
the fiber in excellent physical condition. The auxiliary ALBEGAL® SET, designed especially for the dye
range, ensures safe and level dyeings. LANASET® dyes are suitable for dyeing wool in all forms,
especially loose stock, slubbing and yarn. In addition the LANASET® range is highly suitable for blends
of wool with numerous other fibers, including polyester, polyamide, silk, acrylics and cellulose.

. Recommendations for combination shades

LANASET® dyes possess similar dyeing properties and therefore have excellent compatibility.
It is recommended to use the dye closest in color to that required and to shade as appropriate.

The following LANASET® dyes are highly suitable for combinations in the more muted shade area,
allowing a wide range to be covered: LANASET® Yellow 2R, Red G, Brown B and Grey G.

Penetration accelerants
ALBAFLOW® CIR or ALBAFLOW® UNI-01 is added to the dyebath to de-aerate and rapidly wet out the
goods. These products also have a foam-suppressing effect.

Leveling agent
ALBEGAL® SET is amphoteric and has affinity for both dye and fiber. For all shade depths
1% ALBEGAL® SET is used at liquor ratios from 8:1 to 25:1. Below 8:1 the amount should be reduced
to 0.5%, above 25:1 it should be increased.

ALBEGAL® SET improves the compatibility of the LANASET® dyes, promotes their migration and
exhaustion, and greatly helps to ensure fiber and surface levelness. These effects can be improved
still further by an addition of 5–10% Glauber’s salt (particular recommended for dyeing yarn and
piece goods).

Dyeing accelerant
MIRALAN® TOP is a special dyeing accelerant for the LANASET® TOP process to accelerate diffusion
of LANASET® dyes inside the wool fiber and shorten the dyeing time. The LANASET® TOP process is
recommended only for dyeing loose wool and tops.

MIRALAN® TOP works also as low temperature auxiliary and allows dyeing temperatures of 85 – 90°C
(depending from shade depth).
A
Wool care product
MIRALAN® Q-01 improves the quality of the wool at all stages of processing. It reduces felting and
setting during dyeing and has a lubricating effect. Carding and spinning properties of loose material are
improved. In package dyeing, flattening on crossover points is reduced and bulk increased. In piece
dyeing, running marks and felting are prevented.

Dissolving the dyes

B
Paste the dye cold with soft water, add hot water (60–90°C) and boil up briefly with live steam if
necessary. Stir thoroughly (with rapid stirrer if necessary).

Auxiliaries and chemicals should not be added during dissolving. For further details on solubility of the
individual dyes, please see tables in the pattern section.

The temperature of dye solutions containing LANASET® Red 2B should not exceed 60°C/140°F.

Dyebath pH
LANASET® dyes are applied at pH 4.5, the ideal pH for wool as it minimizes fiber damage during
dyeing. The pH is best set with a buffer of sodium acetate and acetic acid or with ALBATEX® AB-45,
a pH controlling agent, which sets the pH at 4.5.

Process parameters
ool. Shading
ted LANASET® dyeings are highly reproducible. All LANASET® dyes can be used for shading. As a rule there
is no need to top up with chemicals. Before the shading dye is added, the dyebath should be cooled to
75–80°C. For loose wool and tops, the additions can be made with steam off.

Correction of faulty dyeings

Dyeings that have turned out too deep or slightly unlevel can be weakened by 10–15% or leveled by
treating in a fresh bath for 30 min at the boil with

Re-dye in a fresh bath.

Note:
LANASET® Violet B, Blue 2R and Blue 5G can only be weakened marginally.

Softening of wool by exhaust process

After dyeing, softening agents are applied, usually in a separate bath, to achieve a soft and pleasant hand.
Different softeners can be used, depending on the hand required of the specific end product, e. g. soft,
elegant, surface smooth, cool, warm, luxurious, drapy, bulky etc.

SAPAMINE® CA NEW and ULTRATEX® EMJ achieve two of the most commonly requested effects.
More options are available.

Process:
pH 4.5–5.5 (adjusted with acetic acid)
Time 15–20 min
Temperature 30–40°C
Liquor ratio 3:1–20:1

The amount of softener ranges from 1 to 5%, depending on requirements.

The goods are hydro-extracted without subsequent rinsing and the fabric is dried at 110–130°C
(230–266°F).

agglomeration of dye and thickener, sticking on the backwasher, wrapping round rollers, dusting
during gilling or spinning. To be on the safe side, therefore, many mills prefer to use stock thickenings.

Wool / polyester blends
Outlets
with PES/wool blended fabrics are mainly used for apparel, i.e. suits. Blending wool with PES makes the
fabric cheaper and increases durability and wrinkle-resistance. Main outlets are worsted fabrics.

The most common blend ratio for PES/WO is 55:45 but a large variety of other blend ratios can also
be found in the market. PES/WO blends are dyed in piece form (solid shades) or as yarn on packages
(for pattern wovens).

Dyeing system
All LANASET® dyes are ideal for PES/WO blends. They are applied at pH 4.5, which guarantees
optimum wool preservation, and perfect conditions for the dispersion stability of TERASIL® disperse
dyes. LANASET® dyes are stable at 120°C and have excellent migration at this temperature, therefore
they can also be recommended for piece dyeing of PES/WO blends. All LANASET® dyes are noted for
very good reservation of PES. The selection of dyes follows the same rules as for pure wool.

Excellent technical behavior during dyeing and good fastness properties make the LANASET® dyes
the ideal range for dyeing PES/WO blends:
• coverage of a wide range of colors, including brilliant shades
• pale to deep shades attainable, including navy and black
• one-bath dyeing method
• shade stability at 120°C/248°F, no interference with wool protecting agents

of these cases wool then dyes to a darker shade than the polyamide blended with it.

Blocking agent
Blocking agents like ERIONAL® FRN consist of colorless anionic compounds having high affinity for
polyamide. They partially saturate the polyamide fiber and allow the dye to move onto the wool portion
of the blend. The amount of blocking agent has to be adjusted so that an even distribution can be
achieved between the fibers.

The required amount of blocking agent depends on the dyes used, dye concentration, fiber type and
blend ratio, and has to be determined in preliminary lab trials simulating bulk conditions as closely as
possible.

 LANASET®

Dye concentration
the The distribution of dyes between the two fibers depends strongly on the applied dye concentration. At
cks pale to medium depths below the saturation limit of polyamide, this fiber is generally colored deeper
than wool. Therefore dye uptake by polyamide must be retarded by ERIONAL® FRN.In medium to deep
shades an even distribution between the fibers is often encountered. In deep shades many dye classes
dye the wool darker. In such cases the polyamide has to be covered with dyes having high affinity for
polyamide.

s
Dye selection
Besides the dye selection based on end-use requirements such as wet and light fastness properties,
each individual dye has different affinity for wool and polyamide. This means that some dyes dye wool
darker and some dye polyamide darker. For dye combinations it is very important that the individual
dyes distribute more or less evenly between wool and polyamide and that they react similarly to the
same amount of blocking agent to give good solidity.

Dyes with low affinity for polyamide need less blocking agent than dyes with medium or high affinity.
For combination shades dyes should be selected if possible only from the group with the same affinity
in order to achieve best solidity.

Parameters influencing partition between wool and silk

Silk fiber type
The quality and type of silk fibers e.g. mulberry silk, tussah silk, weighted silk, influence the distribution
of dyes between silk and wool. The silk used in blends should be degummed before fiber blending to
avoid negative influence of the silk gum on dyeing performance and fastness.

Wool fiber
Quality and type of wool, fiber diameter and pretreatment all influence uptake and shade depth on the
fiber. If the wool has been treated by a shrink-resist process the dye affinity is increased appreciably.
In most of these cases wool then dyes darker than the silk blended with it.

Glauber’s salt is the major reagent to control the distribution of dyes between wool and silk. Salt retards
the dye uptake on wool in favor of silk.

Dyeing temperature A
Dyeing at a low temperature favors a deeper dyeing on silk. However too low a dyeing temperature
has a negative influence on the wet fastness on wool. The best temperature for LANASET® dyes for
this blend is 90°C.

Dyeing pH
The distribution of dyes between the two fibers depends on the pH used. A lower pH favors a
deeper dyeing of silk. In order to obtain reproducible results, the use of a buffer like sodium acetate is B
recommended.

LANASET® dye selection

er. With most LANASET® dyes solid shades can be achieved on wool/silk blends. Therefore the normal
recommendations including the trichromatic system LANASET® Yellow 2R, Red G and Grey G can be
followed with the following exceptions:
LANASET® Red 2B, Blue 2R, Blue 2RA and Navy R dye silk lighter than the other LANASET® dyes.

Dyeing at pH 4.5 and using higher amounts of salt can improve the depth on silk.

Blue shades: Good partition is obtained by a combination of LANASET® Blue 5G and Violet B.
Navies: Solid shades can be achieved by a combination of LANASET® Navy R and Black B.
Alternatively navies could be based on LANACRON® Navy S-G 150%.
Blacks: Dyeings with LANASET® Black B need less salt and only 0.5% ALBEGAL® SET.

Notes:
In order to establish the best dyeing conditions for solid shades, lab trials under identical conditions are
recommended. Wet fastness on silk is generally lower than on wool. If necessary an aftertreatment in a
fresh bath with 2% ERIONAL® ECS at pH 5–6 for 20 min at 40°C can be given to improve wet fastness.

Wool / cellulose blends
Outlets Dyei
Wool/cellulose blends are mainly used for apparel in woven or knitted form. A large variety of blend
ratios can be found ranging from 80/20 to 20/80. WO/CEL blends are dyed in piece form or as yarn
on packages and hanks.

Dyeing system
LANASET® dyes have excellent reservation of cellulosic fibers. Therefore they are ideal for this blend.
There are no restrictions on LANASET® dye selection therefore the same rules as for pure wool can be
followed. The two major methods to dye WO/CEL blends are a one-bath dyeing method using
SOLOPHENYL® direct dyes and a two-bath method using NOVACRON® EC or AVITERA® SE reactive
dyes for the cellulose portion.

LANASET®/SOLOPHENYL® dyeing method

This economical one-bath dyeing method is recommended for pale to medium shade depths because
of the typical wet fastness level of direct dyes. A dyeing pH of 5.5 is used to ensure good exhaustion of
the LANASET® dyes on wool and minimize staining of the wool by the SOLOPHENYL® dyes. Blocking
agent ERIONAL® FRN is mandatory, otherwise SOLOPHENYL® dyes will mainly dye the wool portion.

SOLOPHENYL® dye selection

A
The selection of SOLOPHENYL® dyes is governed by minimum staining of wool under dyeing
conditions and stability to reduction in presence of wool.

The following SOLOPHENYL® dyes are recommended:

Orange TGL 182% •

LANASET /NOVACRON EC dyeing method

Prop
For higher fastness requirements in medium to deep shades the cellulose portion of the blend is
preferably dyed with NOVACRON® EC reactive dyes. The dyeing has to be done by a two-bath- Broa
procedure, dyeing first the cellulose and, after soaping and rinsing, the wool portion in a fresh bath.

NOVACRON® EC dyes always stain the wool somewhat. This staining is fast and the wool recipe has
to be adjusted accordingly. In order to minimize damage to the wool only soda ash should be used for
fixation (see table below) and the temperature should not exceed 60°C. The amount of soda ash and Com
salt should be calculated for the amount of NOVACRON® EC dye based on pure cellulose. For
selection of NOVACRON® EC dyes, see corresponding pattern card.

LANASET®/AVITERA® SE dyeing method

AVITERA® SE dyes are predestinated to dye WO/CEL blends, offering additional benefits in terms of
sustainability compared to classical reactive dyestuffs.
Key benefits :
has • saving 50% of water consumption
for • saving 50 % of energy consumption
nd • reducing CO2 emmissions by 50%
elec- • Increasing productivity by 25%

The wash-off takes place at 60°C and with 3 wash baths only, preserving the precious wool quality
while reducing significantly process time, leading to enhanced productivity.
The high speed low temperature wash-off takes place in a slightly alkaline medium, ensuring a good
wool reservation. Slight staining on wool is fast and therefore no problem. The final shade on wool is
achieved in the second bath.
