We{ Shrey Dye Chem Ind} is one of top manufacturer and exporter of Direct Dyes in Korea. Direct dyes are a class of synthetic dyes that are commonly used to color textiles, fabrics, and, in some cases, certain types of paper. Unlike many other types of dyes, direct dyes are capable of directly coloring the substrate without the need for additional chemicals or mordants to fix the color. Direct dyes are water-soluble, which means they dissolve in water, making them easy to apply to fabrics during the dyeing process. Direct dyes are primarily used for dyeing cellulosic fibers, such as cotton, rayon, and linen. The dyeing procedure using direct dyes normally entails soaking the fabric in a dye solution containing the dye, followed by rinsing and washing to remove any excess dye.
We are Well-known manufacturer and suppliers of all types Acid Dyes in Korea like, acid black dyes, acid blue dyes, acid brown dyes, acid orange dyes, acid red dyes, acid violet dyes etc. Acid dyes are a type of synthetic dye that is especially useful for dyeing protein-based fabrics like wool, silk, and nylon. They are dubbed "acid dyes" because their use necessitates an acidic atmosphere. These dyes are water-soluble and include anionic (negatively charged) groups, which allow them to interact with cationic (positively charged) sites on protein fibers. The dyeing process with acid dyes involves immersing the fibers in a dye bath containing the dye and an acid, heating the mixture, and allowing the dye to penetrate and bond with the fibers. Acid dyes are commonly used in the textile industry for dyeing wool and silk fabrics, as well as nylon fibers used in the production of carpets and synthetic textiles.
We are leading manufacturer, supplier and exporter of Solvent Dyes in Korea. Solvent dyes are a type of dye that dissolves in organic solvents but not water. These dyes are frequently used to color non-polar substances like polymers, hydrocarbon-based waxes, oils, and synthetic materials. In contrast to water-soluble colors, solvent dyes do not require a water-based medium for application. Instead, they are usually dissolved in organic solvents before being applied to the intended substrate. Solvent dyes are especially designed to dissolve in organic solvents such as alcohols, ketones, and hydrocarbons, but they are not water soluble. Solvent dyes are versatile and find applications in various industries. Common uses include coloring plastics, waxes, oils, synthetic resins, and other .
