    This document outlines the process of printing cotton fabric with reactive dye. It describes preparing a stock paste with sodium alginate, urea, and water, then measuring viscosity. A print paste is made by adding reactive dye, oxidizing agent, and alkali to the stock paste. The cotton fabric is printed using a flatbed printing machine and stenter. Viscosity decreases with added urea but rubbing and washing fastness increases. The overall goal is to print cotton fabric using reactive dye.

    OBJECTIVES:-

     Preparation of stock paste.


     Preparation of print paste.
     To print given cotton fabric with the help of Reactive dye

    APPARATUS:-

     Beaker
     Stirrer
     Electric Balance

    CHEMICALS REQUIRED:- (FOR STOCK PASTE)

     Sodium alginate [3-12 %] 30-120g/l


     Urea 100-200g/l
     Ludigol 10g/l
     Water 1000 ml

    PROCEDURE:-

     First of all, one liter water was taken in a beaker.


     This was followed by the addition of sodium alginate 3% of the weight of
    paste to be prepared.
     It was then stirred vigorously using a high speed stirrer.
     The viscosity of the paste was then measured with the help of viscometer.
     The amount of Sodium alginate was optimized to obtain a viscosity reading of
    13,000 centipoises.
     Then urea was added to the paste followed by the measurement of viscosity.
     The change in viscosity was noted.

    OBSERVATIONS:-

    Viscosity of paste before addition of urea = 13500 centipoises


    Viscosity of paste after addition of urea = 12500 centipoises
    PREPARATION OF PRINT PASTE:-

    APPARATUS:-

     Beaker
     Stirrer
     Electric Balance

    CHEMICALS REQUIRED:- (FOR PRINT PASTE)

     Stock paste (prepared as above)


     Alkali
     Reactive dye [4%] 40 g/l

    PROCEDURE:-

     Reactive dye was added to the prepared stock paste and stirred for some
    time.
     Mild oxidizing agent (Ludigol) was then added to the paste.
     Alkali was added at the end.

    PRINTING OF FABRIC:-

    MACHINE USED:-

     Flat bed printing machine


     Stenter

    PRINT PASTE APPLICATION:-

     The fabric sample was laid on flat bed of the printing machine, with the
    printing screen over it.
     Print paste was put on one side of screen and applied with the help of a
    steel rod.
     Steel rod moves with the help of electromagnetic assembly and applies the
    print paste on the fabric.
     The fabric was then dried at 110oC for 1 min through Stenter.
     It was then cured at 170oC for 2 min.
     The fabric sample was then washed.
     Testing was carried out on the fabric.
    RESULT:-

    It has been observed that the viscosity of the print paste decrease with the addition of
    the urea, but also the rubbing and washing fastness increases.
