The aim of this course unit is to educate the students on the main aspects of fibre material colouration. A first part is dedicated to how colour can be quantified. A second part is dedicated to the thermodynamics and the kinetics of dyeing processes. A third part applies this knowledge to the most important textile materials including examples of novel applications. Finally, dyeing and printing equipment is discussed.
