This research work involves the synthesis, the characterization, and the dyeing application of some reactive dyes between polyamide fibers. All the dyeing parameters have been studied, pH 4 was registered as the optimal pH value of dyeing polyamide fabrics with the synthesized dyes. The color depth as measured by the K/S value, the colorfastness to washing and light were also evaluated. Under UV exposure, intense emission of orange red was observed for dyed polyamide. Potential applications of this technology include protective clothing, textile-based sensors, and smart tagging.
