Batik Technique

Originally batik was made on white material made of cotton called Mori cloth. Today batik is also made on other materials such as silk, polyester, rayon and other synthetic materials. Batik motifs are formed with liquid wax using a tool called canting for fine motifs, or brushes for large motifs, so that waxy liquid seeps into the fabric fibers. Fabrics that have been painted with wax are then dyed with the desired color, usually starting with young colors. The dyeing was then carried out for other motifs with an older or darker color. After several coloring processes, the cloth that has been batik is dipped in chemicals to dissolve the wax.

蠟染技術

最初的蠟染是用棉花製成的白色材料製成的,稱為Mori布。 今天的蠟染也是用其他材料製成的,如絲綢,滌綸,人造絲和其他合成材料。 蠟染圖案由液體蠟形成,使用稱為傾斜的精細圖案工具,或用於大圖案的刷子,使蠟質液體滲入織物纖維。 然後將塗有蠟的織物染成所需的顏色,通常從年輕顏色開始。 然後對具有較舊或較深顏色的其他圖案進行染色。 在幾次著色過程之後,將已經蠟染的布浸入化學品中以溶解蠟。
