Viscose fabric is not a
common fabric like as cotton. The hand feelings of this fabric are same as silk
& soft.
Viscose yarn is a kind of
yarn which made from cellulose base. Viscose is a type
of man-made fiber but it is not a synthetic fiber like as polyester,
because it is made from natural materials, but it is heavily processed.
Advantages of
Viscose
Fabric which is made from
viscose yarn is that takes dyes very well, so that, we can work with a wide
variety of colors. Viscose fabric is very shiny; also it stays bright and
colorful throughout the life of the products made with it. So, if you want to
work with various kind of bold and colorfast fabric then you can choose
viscose.
Disadvantages
of Viscose fabric
1)
Fabric tearing
possibility is very high during the dyeing process.
2)
If the fabric
remain wet for long times then some spot creates on it’s, which removal process
is very difficult. But in cotton fabric we can do this very easily.
3)
If the fabric
dyed uneven then it is very difficult to remove.
4)
During the
dyeing process if we fail to maintain the temperature & pressure properly
then fabric strength will be reduce.

Dyeing Process of 100% Viscose Fabric:
Actually viscose dyeing process is almost same as single jersey
cotton spandex fabric. However, please find below the dyeing process.

1st Step: Scouring (detergent wash) the fabric in
the dyeing winch and released the water for perform the next
process.

which increased the PH of fabric.

used brightener chemical in this step. And step 06 is not
require for white color fabric.
·

9th Step: Open compacting for control shrinkage
of fabric length.
Now the fabric is ready for cutting. Please test
the Shrinkage, Color shade, Gsm before start cutting.
However, I always suggest everybody to avoid the
order with viscose fabric. Because dyeing of this is very risky & costly
also.
Hope, it will be helpful for all of you
