However, for synthetic fibers manufactured by an extrusion process, such as polyester, polyamide, and polypropylene, there is another technology that uses no water and less energy than classic bath-dyeing: spin-dyeing. The colorant is in the form of concentrate pellets added to the polymer pellets during the extrusion and melting process.
