Acid Green 25 performs best on protein fibres (wool, silk) and on polyamide (nylon) under acidic dyeing conditions. It gives the most reliable, even shades on pre-scoured fibres with proper acidification of the dyebath.
To improve leveling on nylon, prewet the fabric thoroughly, add a small amount of a non-ionic wetting agent and introduce the dye slowly at a controlled temperature rise. Using a mild leveling agent and holding the temperature at the dyeing plateau for sufficient time reduces streaking and patchiness.
Acid Green 25 generally shows moderate lightfastness—adequate for indoor textiles, garments, and decorative items. For outdoor or high-exposure applications, consider post-dye UV stabilizers, protective topcoats, or selecting a dye with higher rated lightfastness.
Common compatible auxiliaries include non-ionic wetting agents, mild leveling agents, acidifying agents (acetic or citric acid for pH control), and mild dispersants for ink formulations. Always test compatibility at lab scale before scale-up.
Prepare small lab dyebaths using pre-scoured swatches, control pH with acetic/citric acid, and run incremental temperature increases to the target dyeing plateau. Record liquor ratio, temperature profile, and time to replicate successful runs at larger scale.
