fiber-reactive dyes
Fiber-reactive dyes are a type of dye designed to bond chemically with natural fibers like cotton, wool, and silk. When applied, they form a strong, permanent covalent bond, creating vibrant, long-lasting colors that resist washing and fading. These dyes work best with cellulose fibers and require a chemical reaction facilitated by alkalinity. Their durability and vividness make them popular for dyeing textiles at home or professionally. Because of their chemical bonding process, fiber-reactive dyes produce bright, stable colors while maintaining the natural feel of the fabric.
