Quiz 3 Power Points Flashcards
how many colors can the human eye see
22 million
how many color receptors does the eye have
3 (red, blue, greeen)
is the perceiving color unique or the same per human
unique
what are different categories of color perception can you have
color normal and color blind
How can textile fabrics alter their perceived color
through the structure
What do color depend on
nature of incident light and the interaction with object
Light striking can be…
reflected, absorbed, and transmitted
What color causes all light to be absorbed
black
What are colors mixtures of
monochromatic light of varying wavelengths
When visible light strikes fabric, what is absorbed
every other color but the color of the fabric
What are factors influencing color
- Light source
- Age
- Gender
- Fatigue
- Texture
What does RGB Stand for
Red, green, blue
What color mixing property is used by a computer monitor
RGB
If you increase the intensity of RGB, what color does it make
White
What does CMY Stand for
Cyan, Magenta, Yellow
If you increase the intensity of CMY, what color does it make
What does Hue mean
color sensation
What does Value mean
lightness or darkness
What does Chroma (saturation) mean
purity of color
What color remains constant no matter what light source hits it
white
Color Difference
The smallest difference in color that a normal observer can see
What colors are harder to see small differences
deep red or deep violet
What colors are easier to see small differences
green or yellow
what light intensity is hard to see small differences
very bright and very dark
Hoe to minimize color differences
standardized, light sources, viewing angles, and viewing boxes
Dyeing
Process of adding color to textile materials - Absorbs
Printing
Localized application of colorants to produce patterned areas - May stay on surface OR Diffuse
How can dyes be applied
fiber, yarn, or garment form
What are the compounds for adding color to textile materials
dyes or pigments
components of dyeing
- HIGH water solubility
- ORGANIC compounds
- CANNOT be dyed the same
- DIFFUSED into fibers
- Costly
- NO binding agent
components of pigment printing
- water INSOLUABLE
- INORGANIC
- CAN be printed the same
- DONT diffuse
- Cheap
- YES binding agent
What do you have to do before dyeing and printing
prepare
Bleaching
Removing color impurities
Scouring
Removing dirt
What does bleaching do to luster
makes it brighter
What does bleaching do to the color of fabric
makes it whiter
half bleach
partial whitening
What types of bleaching can you use
half and full bleaching
full bleach
as much whitening as possible
Factors that influence dyeing
- Liquor Ratio
- Fiber character
- Macheine
- temp
- dye concentration
liquor ratio formula
LR = amount of water (L) / weight of fabric (kg)
What does liquor ratio affect
dye uniformity, environmental and energy usage
what liquor ratio is best for dye uniformity
Higher LR
What liquor ratio is best for environmental and energy usage
lower LR
What is the difference between dyeing VS Staining
Dyeing - Intentional and Permanent
Staining - Accidental or Intentional, temportary
The different stages of dyeing
- Solution
- Fiber
- Yarn
- Fabric
- Product
Solution Dyeing
dyeing manufactured fibers and are used for fibers that are difficult to dye
Tow Dyeing
dyeing fibers before they are cut
