Le chinage de pièces par teinture est un procédé de teinture en pièces des tissus, des articles finis tels que les vêtements. Les pièces à teindre sont pliées et munies de ligatures ou d’attaches assez nombreuses. Lors de l’immersion des pièces dans le bac de teinture, la matière colorante recouvre les parties libres; les parties attachées sont à peine (ou pas du tout) teintes. On défait ensuite les nœuds et les chinés diversement nuancés apparaissent sur la pièce. Les parties restées libres dans le bain de teinture sont complètement teintes, donc foncées; et les autres qui étaient préservées sont claires ou ont gardé leur nuance première. Le dégradé existant entre ces deux extrêmes (foncé et clair) produit le chinage. 2, record 1, French, - chinage%20par%20teinture
