Cotton towels are generally dyed with reactive dyes, dye molecules and cellulose molecules covalent bond, so that the dye is fixed in
On the fiber. In the reaction process, some dyes are combined with the fiber, and some dyes are hydrolyzed and adsorbed on the fiber surface, but there is no covalent bond, so it is easy to fall off. When dyeing dark towels, there are a lot of hydrolytic dyes adsorbed on the fiber, it is difficult to clean, so the first washing will have decolorization phenomenon, which is unavoidable. If the color of the light towel is fading more after the first washing or the color of the dark towel is still fading after repeated washing, it is caused by unqualified dyes or inaccurate dyeing process, which belongs to unqualified products.
