In this study, the dyeing kinetics of polyamide fabrics with acid dyes, Telon Blue M2R, under both conventional and microwave-assisted heating conditions were comprehensively investigated. While the conventional dyeing reaction was completed in 30 minutes, microwave-assisted dyeing was performed in the microwave device for 10 minutes. Dyeing kinetics were investigated as a function of reaction time, reaction concentration and dyeing temperatures. The K/S values (color depth) of the dyed fabrics were correlated with the concentration. A significant reduction in the dyeing process time for polyamide fabric was observed with microwave heating compared to the conventional method. Kinetic analysis revealed that the PSO kinetic model provides a better fit to the experimental data on the diffusion process of acid dye in polyamide fabrics, as evidenced by higher correlation coefficients (R²) compared to the PFO model. The activation energy of the reaction in dyeing was found to be 63.27 kJ/mol, and the Arrhenius constant was determined as 7,20 x 1010 L/g.min in conventional media and 18,70 x 1010 L/g.min in microwave media. The Arrhenius factor in the microwave medium was more than two times higher than in the conventional one.
