Learning outcomes	Study the different application processes of dyes suitable for dyeing of different textile materials (single and mixed) in the various stages of processing. Acquisition of knowledge in terms of machines used, quality control and dyeing costs. Understand the influence of different physical and chemical and thermodynamic parameters on dyeing processes and its influence on the quality of the final product. Describe and analyze the various dyeing processes with the most important class of dyes for each textile fiber and fiber mixtures. Select the most suitable dyeing process for each type of material. Identify and characterize the different constituent parts of the various machines used in dyeing, as well as relate their action on the dyeing process. Perform experimental work that simulates industrial dyeing operations and discuss the results obtained. Evaluate the quality of the dyeing process, costs and environmental implications.
Syllabus	Fundamental aspects of pre-treatment of the main textile fibers. Dyeing processes using different classes of dyes in the main textile fibers: cellulosic, protein, artificial and synthetic. Dyeing of mixed fibers. Analysis of different dyeing processes. Study of the different factors that influence the dyeing processes. Control of dyeing processes and quality of dyed materials. Machines used in pre-treatment and dyeing processes. Discontinuous, continuous and semi- continuous processes. Exhaustion dyeing machines: characteristics, theoretical model of package dyeing. Pad dyeing machines: fundamental aspects of padding and fixation process of dyes applied by padding. Production planning and cost calculation. Environmental aspects in the dyeing process.
