ITRI developed the Functional Dyeing Synchronized with CO2 Supercritical Technology, a single-bath supercritical fluid dyeing (SFD) process for PET or blended elastic textiles and give wicking performance. The technology uses supercritical carbon dioxide as the dyeing solvent instead of water, thereby eliminating water consumption and pollution. Without any water usage, it also optimizes textile manufacturing since textiles no longer need drying.
