Acid Dyeing Specification Targets for Buyers
Setting Acid Dyeing correctly on a tech pack prevents most later disputes. Targets belong on the page before the first fabric sample.
Where to write it
Place Acid Dyeing next to composition and weight so all three are quoted as one package. Working figures for Acid Dyeing normally sit around 95-100 degrees with pH control in mainstream production. Note jet dyeing with levelling agents on the tech pack so nobody tests against an older revision.
Reference level
Typical activewear expectation: 95-100 degrees with pH control. Record elastane content alongside Acid Dyeing, because blends shift the measured value. A result outside 95-100 degrees with pH control usually points to process drift rather than to the fibre itself.
Tolerances that work
Allow a small tolerance rather than a fixed number, since normal process variation exists in every lot. Keeping reference values for Acid Dyeing lets suppliers quote without extra sampling rounds. Ask for conditioning details together with jet dyeing with levelling agents, since both affect the reading.
Verification method
Confirm with jet dyeing with levelling agents and keep the report against the bulk record. Working figures for Acid Dyeing normally sit around 95-100 degrees with pH control in mainstream production. Note jet dyeing with levelling agents on the tech pack so nobody tests against an older revision.
Commercial note
Tightening beyond practical need raises cost without improving garment life, so set the tightest target only where it protects the customer. Record elastane content alongside Acid Dyeing, because blends shift the measured value. A result outside 95-100 degrees with pH control usually points to process drift rather than to the fibre itself.
