The Reactive Dyes are made from colored organic substances, primarily used for tinting textiles, which attach themselves to their substrates by a chemical reaction that forms a covalent bond between the molecule of dye and that of the fiber. The dyestuff thus becomes a part of the fiber and is much less likely to be removed by washing than are dyestuffs that adhere by adsorption. The effect of Reactive Dyes is less potent on polyester, due to the molecular structure, allowing only pastel through to medium shades. However full color can be achieved when transfer printing with the Reactive Dyes.
Attributes

• Long lasting
• Quick absorption
• Made from highly colored organic substances
