6.11 Dyes for Acrylic Fibres

The accompanying script for this lesson is provided in the Transcript Document

This extract from chapter 11 of the book, Physico-chemical Aspects of Textile Coloration by S.M. Burkinshaw is a good accompaniment for this topic.

This extract from chapter 4 of the book,  Synthetic Fibre Dyeing, edited by Chris Hawkyard is provided for additional reading regarding basic dyes.

This  extract  from chapter 18 of the book Basic Principles of Textile Coloration, by Arthur Broadbent provides an overview cationic dyes.

This  paper  (Cagerra, JSDC, 87(05), 1971), is provided for additional interest and background reading and examines some aspects of the physical chemistry associated with dyeing acrylic fibres with basic dyes.
