Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for dyeing a cellulosic textile substrate with reduced indigo dye in a leuco-state in an inert atmosphere substantially isolated from oxidizing substances. A plurality of applicator faces that each apply a portion of the total dye application. The first foam applicator is spaced from the entrance of the chamber to allow air entrapped in the interstices of the substrate to escape. The applicators are spaced from each other to allow collapse of the foam and dispersion of the dye applied in the previous applicator before the substrate reaches the next applicator. Similarly, the exit is spaced from the last applicator to allow the foam to collapse and the dye to disperse prior to exiting the apparatus and entering the atmosphere in which oxidization of the dye occurs.
