Blending of two or more different types of fibres is of
crucial significance to the textile industry. The yarns and fabrics produced
display a range of desirable properties that otherwise could not be achieved by
a single textile component. The technical and commercial requirements of blended
fibres place great demands on dyers and colourists to achieve high-quality,
reproducible results under production conditions. The range of substrates
available and the multitude of variables that dyeing technologists have to
consider make blends dyeing a complex subject.
