Found as the active component in agricultural lime and formed naturally in hard water, it plays a useful role in helping fibres absorb and develop colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn dyeing, calcium carbonate can assist with increasing dye uptake, allowing certain natural dyes to bond more effectively with the fibre. It can also subtly influence the dye bath environment, supporting improved yield and more consistent results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGentler than stronger alkaline agents, it is particularly useful where a softer adjustment to the dye process is needed, making it a helpful addition to both traditional and experimental natural dye work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBenefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps improve dye uptake and colour yield\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActs as a mild mordant and pH modifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports more consistent natural dye results\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGentle alternative to stronger alkaline additives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural dyeing processes requiring improved colour uptake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorking with dyes that benefit from mild alkalinity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTextile studios and experimental dye work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kraftkolour","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51912859746568,"sku":"L.ND.CALCARB","price":4.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0961\/2345\/3704\/files\/mordant.calciumcarbonate1.jpg?v=1773835974","url":"https:\/\/winghamwoolwork.co.uk\/products\/mordant-calcium-carbonate","provider":"Wingham Wool","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
