3. It has excellent chlorine resistance and wet fastness.

To compared with vat dyes and reactive dyes, the former one has better chlorine resistance, no matter the fastness of chlorine water(20ppm) or chlorine(500ppm).In addition, Vat dyes have excellent washing fastness etc, so vat dyes are applicable for the occasions with high requirements of chlorine disinfection and washing resistance, for example, printing and dyeing for fabrics, bedding, covers, bed sheets, clothing, etc. in hotels and hospitals. Especially for the product of the requirements of washing treatment which needs to be washed for many times, the advantage of using vat dyes is more obvious. In addition, vat dyes are also applicable for dyeing and printing of textiles requiring the highest wet fastness. For example, dyeing with reactive dyes and textile fabric dyed with vat dyes.

Also in order to reduce the use of washing water in the United States and Europe and other countries and regions, using strong detergent is putting Four acetyl Ethylenediamine(TAED) into oxide so that could make New detergent or Use a large amount of detergent and wash with warm water in the washing water, through these we can see, Vat dyes also have an advanced fastness.

4.The excellent stability of post processing on printing and dyeing fabric

Besides, vat dye has a very good stability developed in recent years during the improvements of the functional changes in the fiber of the functional processing, such as shape memory processing, morphological stability processing, deodorant processing, antibacterial processing, etc.
