As global supplier to the automotive industry, Ciba Specialty Chemicals offers a wide variety of high-performance products which are used in all parts of the car: the exterior, the interior and under the hood. For car interiors, lightfast dyes for colouring fibres such as polyester, polyamide and wool by various methods, dyeing and printing auxiliaries that ensure trouble-free processing, and finishing products that confer specific properties on the textile are offered. A new, heat-stable light fastness improver and fibre stabiliser has been developed to enhance the durability of colours and prolong the life of fibres under the critical conditions to which they are exposed. Problems encountered by dyers and fabric makers during the manufacture of automotive fabrics, such as shade reproducibility in production, shade consistency under different light sources, light fastness of various substrates and the effect of foam backing material will be described. Ways of minimising these problems will also be discussed. The light fastness is constant issue during the development of automotive fabrics and is affected by all steps of processing. The light fastness can be improved by the TERATOP HL dyes. TERATOP HL gives better results because they lose less colour strength when exposed to light and heat. TERATOP Orange HL is a recent addition to the TERATOP HL selection including Yellow HL-G, Red HL-R, Blue HL-B and Navy HL-N. This cost-effective azonic dye has good dyeing and overall fastness properties, including excellent build-up and heat stability, lower sensitivity to temperature, good fastness to washing and contact as well as high stability in an alkaline medium. TERATOP Orange HL is recommended for exhaust and continuous dyeing in both the automotive and non-automotive segment.
