FIELD OF INVENTION

The present invention relates to cloth dyeing technical field, in particular, a process for dyeing ramie slivers.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Ramie is a fiber crop having good quality, high yield and characteristic of China, and the gross output of ramie in China occupies 90% of that of the world. Ramie fiber has the advantageous features of strong hydroscopicity, fast heat dissipation, corrosion resistance and bacterial inhibition, soft luster, recyclability, environmental friendliness and the like, as well as excellent wearability.
As production technology develops and people's living standard raises, ramie is used more and more, mainly for manufacturing ramie cloth, such as Chinese linen. Now, dyeing of ramie mainly lies in ramie yarn dyeing and stock (refined dry flax) dyeing, both of which have succeeded. However, the style of the colored fabric weaved with the dyed ramie yarns is relatively fixed, and dyeing of refined dry flax has a low yield, resulting in severe waste. Although dyeing of ramie slivers exists currently, and it greatly increase yield and achieve a varying colorful effect, which is difficult to be achieved by yarn dyeing, by coalescing ramie slivers having different colors and blend spinning into yarns, the existing ramie sliver dyeing technology generally uses the top dyeing technique conventional in wool or cotton spinning industry; moreover, the dyed fiber slivers are likely to break in coalescing and drawing, and the fibers are likely to harden due to no curling and poor cohesion of ramie fibers, readily leading to poor drawing, needle breakage and missing stitches during carding and coalescing in post-procedures, thus it is difficult to spin smoothly.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Directing to these disadvantages, the present invention provides a process for dyeing ramie slivers, by which the ramie slivers dyed is not liable to break and harden and enables smooth yarn spinning.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the invention provides the following technical solution: a process for dyeing ramie slivers, comprising

1) pretreatment: steaming ramie slivers for 8-12min at a bath ratio of 1:4-10 with a 1-3g/L aqueous solution of a penetrant as a steaming agent;
2) dyeing: dyeing the steamed ramie slivers in an active dye at a bath ratio of 1:4-10.

Preferably, the dyeing in step 2) comprises the following process: adding ramie slivers to a dissolved active dye at atmospheric temperature, stirring for 5-10min; adding a salt solution, increasing temperature to 60°C-70°C, running for 5-8min, adding sodium carbonate solution, and running for 40-60min while holding the temperature; taking the ramie slivers out, and sequentially performing washing with clear water, neutralizing with diluted acid, soaping, and washing with cold water.
Preferably, the dyeing process further comprises 3) post-treatment: subjecting the dyed ramie slivers to color fixing and oiling.

Said oiling is carried out by immersing the color-fixed ramie slivers in an aqueous solution containing 2-3g/L of an oil agent at 60°C-70°C for 20-30min.
Preferably, said soaping is carried out by washing the ramie slivers in a solution of 1-2g/L of detergent at 90°C-100°C for 10-15min.
Preferably, the ramie slivers in step 1) are set to have a coiler shape.
The present invention further provides a preparation method of ramie spun yarn, and the technical solution thereof is as follows: a method for preparing ramie colored-spun yarn, comprising the following steps:

(1) preparing ramie fibers into ramie balls having a coiler shape;
(2) steaming ramie balls for 8-12min at a bath ratio of 1:4-10 with a 1-3g/L aqueous solution of a penetrant as a steaming agent;
(3) dyeing the ramie balls steamed in step (2) in an active dye at a bath ratio of 1:4-10;

Main process parameters:

Penetrant JFC 1g/L
Bath ratio 1:4-10
Temperature 100°C
Time 10 min
Circulation completely internal flow
Key points: completely-internal-flow is adopted in the circulation for temperature increase, where the rate of temperature increase is set to be the fastest, and the pump speed is 90%. After pretreatment is finished, washing with cold water is conducted once for 5 min, and the tank is opened for checking.

2) Dyeing

Dye: active dye, the amount thereof varies according to colors
Bath ratio: 1:4-10

Dissolved dye is added at atmospheric temperature, followed by running for 5min; dissolved salt is added and then temperature is increased to 60°C, followed by running for 5 min; dissolved sodium carbonate is added, followed by running for 40-60min while holding the temperature at 60°C, and then a sample is taken. The color is checked. If the color is correct, water is discharged, and washing with clear water is conducted once for 5min; subsequently, glacial acetic acid is added for neutralization (HAC 2-4g/l), and water is discharged after running at atmospheric temperature for 5 min. Soaping is performed once (detergent 1-2g/l, temperature 90-100°C, time 10min), then water washing and overflow water washing are carried out sequentially, followed by washing with 80°C water once for 5min (washing with hot water is performed again if the color is very deep) and washing with cold water for 1-2 times each for 5min. Lubrication treatment is carried out (color fixing agent is added if the color is deep) at 40°C for 10min, and then water is discharged out of the cage.
In the steps in which the ramie balls are disposed in the dyeing vessel, the rates of temperature increase and decrease are set to be the fastest, expect for that the rate of temperature increase in dyeing is controlled at 2°C/min, so that the retention time of the ramie balls in the dyeing vessels is shortened as much as possible, and the impact of liquid flow on the ramie balls is reduced, thereby avoiding tangle.
Key points of dyeing: the dyes having low substantivity and better migrating property (especially dyes of medium and light color) should be used. The dyes and aids should be substantially dissolved before addition. Feed speed should be controlled severely, and dye is fed at a speed of 50% for 10min; and the aids are fed at a speed of 70% for 5min. Dyeing is performed for 40-60min with rate of temperature increase controlled at 2°C/min. Bidirectional circulation is adopted in dyeing, comprising external flow at a pump speed of 60% for 2min and internal flow at a pump speed of 90% for 4min, and internal-flow starting is adopted.

3) Post-treatment

The purpose of post-treatment is to fix color for improving color fastness of dyeing and to oil for enabling smooth carding. Post-treatment is performed under the environment bidirectional flow comprising internal flow at a pump speed of 80% for 4min and external flow at a pump speed of 40% for 1min.
Main process parameters for color fixing:

Temperature 40°C
Time 10min
Color fixing agent 2-4%
Softener 2-5%

Main process parameters for oiling:

Temperature 60°C
Time 20min

An oil content of 0.5-1.5% is required after drying.

8. Standing and incubating the treated ramie fiber slivers for more than 24h to eliminate partial internal stress of fibers and keep internal-external equilibrium of the regain.
9. Coalescing and drawing the dyed ramie fiber slivers subjected to standing and incubating on a double-apron drawing frame by using a low-speed, light-weight and small draft process, to achieve the purpose of reducing fiber hardening and loosening the fibers, so as to benefit the yarn spinning process.
10. Coalescing and drawing the dyed ramie fiber slivers treated with the double-apron drawing frame again on a needle-plate drawing frame to improve the evenness of the ramie slivers.
11. Removing part of flaws and short fibers from the coalesced dyed ramie fiber slivers on a ramie comber by using a process of "low speed, fine combing and light weight", so as to satisfy the requirement of high-quality yarn. A smooth roll is used instead of a grooved roll at the sliver outlet to improve cohesion of fibers and thereby facilitate the subsequent production. Different process schemes may be made based on different raw materials, for example, this procedure may be canceled to meet any requirements for the style and the like of product.
12. Coalescing and drawing the combed dyed ramie fiber slivers on a drawing frame for 3-5 times. The coalescing process is performed at a low speed and a light weight by using a trumpet with a perfect pressurizing automatic stopper, smooth passage and small diameter, to improve the evenness and smoothness of the fiber slivers, to ensure uniform mixing and to enable the slivers to shape well.
13. Treating roving according to a process principle of low speed, light weight and appropriate twist factor.
