Textile Processing


TP-2031 Textile Chemical Processing (3 3 4)
The objective of this course is to introduce the students to different areas of textile chemical processing, including Pre-treatment of textiles, textile dyeing, textile printing and textile finishing.

TP-3031 Pre-treatment of Textiles (2 3 3)
In this course, the students will study in depth different preparatory processes to which textile materials are subjected before dyeing, printing and finishing. These preparatory processes include, singeing, desizing, scouring, bleaching and mercerization. Both conventional and bio preparation methods are covered in the course. Students will learn in detail, the preparation of natural, manmade and blended textile materials in all forms. The emphasis will be on the rationale, principles, mechanisms, effect and control of various process parameters, most common problems, and their preventative and corrective measures. The course also includes lab practice.

TP-3032 Textile Colorants and Auxiliaries (2 0 2)
In this course the student will study various types of colorants and auxiliaries used for textiles, their chemical constitution and properties. Auxiliaries are the assistant chemicals used in wet processing.  The major emphasis is to create the students ability to select dyestuff for a particular textile on the basis of its chemical and physical characteristics and end uses.

TP-3033 Dyeing Theory and Practice (3 3 4)
In this course the students will study the application of different dyestuff on natural and synthetic fibers keeping in view the fastness properties required by the end-product. The main emphasis will be on the rationale, principles, mechanisms, effect and control of various process parameters, most common dyeing problems, and their preventative and corrective measures. The course also includes lab practice.

TP-4031 Color Science (2 3 3)
In this course the students study fundamentals of color perception, description, notation, communication and measurement. The course covers topics such as elements of color perception, standard illuminants, specification of color, Munsell system, CIELAB system, color difference, pass/fail system, shade sorting, strength analysis of dyes from solution, relative dye strength and tone analysis, assessment of whiteness and degree of yellowness, anatomy of color measuring instruments, and principles of computer color matching. The course also includes lab practice exercises in color matching.

TP-4032 Textile Printing (3 3 4)
In this course students will study principles and practice of different methods and styles of printing including block printing, flat screen printing, rotary screen printing, direct style, resist style, discharge style, burn-out printing, flock printing, transfer printing and ink-jet printing. The course covers print design studio, screen making, print paste preparation & rheology, printing process and fixation. The students learn printing of fabrics of natural, manmade and blended fibers with pigments and other dyestuffs, role of auxiliaries and the working principles of machinery used for printing and fixation. The course also includes lab practice.

TP-4033 Textile Finishing (3 3 4)
In this course, the students will study the classification, rationale, principles, mechanisms, and methods of different mechanical and chemical finishing processes. The students will cover finishes like chemical softening, hand-building finishes, drying and setting, easy-care finishes, water- and oil- repellent finishes, flame retardant finishes, soil release finishes, anti-static finishes, UV protection finishes, antimicrobial finishes, finishes for color fastness improvement, calendaring, energizing, raising, compressive shrinkage, bio-polishing and other novel finishes. The course also includes lab practice.

TP 4034 Textile Coatings (2 0 2)
In this course the students will study in detail the principles and practice of coating various type of textile materials. The students will study coating techniques, coating chemicals and polymers. The course will cover scope of textile coatings, coating machinery and most common problems associated with the coating of different textile materials with different types of coating auxiliaries and polymers and their preventative and corrective measures.
