Available, delivery time: 1-3 days
Soda / Sodium carbonate: a versatile product - not only for dyeing
Soda or sodium carbonate is an important helping agent for dyeing. It is needed to activate or fix reactive dyes (e.g. Procion MX) and to start indigo vats.
Of course, soda is also a wonderfully versatile and environmentally friendly household agent for cleaning and washing.
Soda/sodium carbonate for fibre reactive dyes
• For tie dye (pre soak method):
Use 250g of soda in 3,5 l of warm water. Soak the fabric in the mixture for 20 minutes. Squeeze/wring out excess solution by hand. Do not rinse.
• For dyeing of cellulose fibres* through immersion bath:
Use 55-75 g per 10 l of water. Add to the dye bath according to instructions.
• Dyeing of cellulose fibres* in the washing machine:
Dilute 50g to 75g per load in 1 l of hot water. Gradually add to the dye bath in the washing machine according to instructions.
*Cellulose fibres = cotton, linen, hemp, paper, viscose, grass etc.
Soda/sodium carbonate for indigo
Soda Ash/Sodium carbonate is slightly alkaline and is needed for the indigo vat.
To dye with indigo you need sodium carbonate in addition to sodium hydrosulphite.
It is added later to the vat (content of the dye bucket).
Sodium carbonate is meant for use with the pre-reduced Jacquard Indigo dye.
1 part of pre-reduced Indigo Dye & 2 parts of Sodium Hydrosulphite & 4 parts of Sodium Carbonate/Soda Ash (use 4 liters of water per 20g of dye).
Tip / Caution
Washing soda from the supermarket is of limited suitability for dyeing.
Washing soda available in the shops may contain additives such as detergent, salt and optical brighteners and is therefore not a good substitute for soda ash for dyeing. PATIN-A Soda consists of 100% sodium carbonate.
