Jacquard Idye Poly: Black

Product Information

It’s essential to follow safety measures while dyeing and always read and adhere to the product instructions. Also, make sure you’re working in a well-ventilated area and wearing protective clothing where necessary to minimize these risks. Color Fading: Even when dyed successfully, polyester tends to lose its vibrancy faster than natural fibers do. The color may fade over time or lose intensity after washing.

The dye most frequently used to color synthetic fabrics after they have been produced is known as “disperse dye.” They can also be found in their own formulae, however, they are frequently found in multifunctional dyes like Rit, Dylon, and iDye.

Dyeing solid, uniform colors has never been easier than with iDye for Natural Fabrics from Jacquard! For synthetic fibers, use iDye Poly, which is formulated specifically for polyester, nylon, poly/cotton blends, plastics, and more synthetic options. It can also be used for sublimation transfer techniques and to dye polyester threads used in commercially manufactured garments. Chemical Reactions: Some dyes designed for synthetics contain disperse dyes, which require carrier chemicals when used domestically. These chemicals can pose health risks if not handled correctly.

Damage from High Heat: Dyeing polyester usually requires high temperatures (often boiling) for the dye to penetrate the fabric properly. This intense heat could potentially damage delicate polyester items or cause shrinkage. But what if you have a cotton-polyester blend? Don’t worry! Our versatile fabric dye is also the best choice for dyeing cotton-polyester blends. The blend of polyester and cotton fibers can be challenging to dye evenly, but with our product, you’ll achieve vibrant and consistent color every time. The Poly iDye is formulated by the experts at Jacquard to work perfectly with Polyester, nylon, poly/cotton blends*, plastics & more synthetic options. It may also be used for sublimation transfer techniques and to dye the polyester threads that are used to sew many commercially manufactured garments.

Synthetic fabrics can be harder to dye, so this dye has to be used on the stovetop to maintain heat throughout the dying process and cannot be used in the washing machine as other Rit dyes can for all fabrics (cotton; silk; wool; linen and rayon (402-431)) and polyesters and nylons (447-462)). Inconsistent Results: Synthetic fabrics vary significantly in manufacturing processes and treatments, which can affect how the material absorbs the dye. This can lead to uneven color distribution or unexpected color outcomes. Environmental Impact: Dyeing processes—particularly with synthetic dyes—can have a significant environmental impact due to chemical runoff in water waste. Works well with hand-dying techniques, vibrant colors, can be used on natural fabrics and cotton/polyester blendsA hot water dye that produces brilliant colors on any natural fabric, iDye may be used on the stovetop or in the washing machine on the hottest cycle. Great for over-dyeing techniques and reviving faded garments! A cookie set by YouTube to measure bandwidth that determines whether the user gets the new or old player interface. Highly concentrated powdered hot water dyes that produce level, uniform colour when immersion dyeing. Polyester and poly blends can be hard to dye. Sometimes the dye will bleed or won’t hold fast. In that case, consider using a dye fixative, which can be used in conjunction with other dyes. This fixative helps prevent the dye from bleeding, and fading over time and can be used to enhance the color of the dye. Although these dyes are intended to be used with synthetic fibers, the wide diversity of synthetic fiber types makes it challenging to ensure a consistent outcome. For optimum results, search for a dye that says it is developed for synthetics while you are purchasing, such iDye Poly. Advice:
