Product type
Wool acid dyes are a type of dye specifically formulated for use on protein fibers such as wool, silk, and nylon. These dyes are typically derived from organic compounds and are known for their vibrant colors and excellent colorfastness. They work by forming ionic bonds with the amino groups in the protein fibers, resulting in strong and lasting coloration.
