Effect of Nano TiO2 Treatment on Disperse Dyeing and Self-Cleaning Properties of PET Fabric

Article Preview

Abstract:

This research studied the finishing process of nano TiO2 on PET fabric by thermal treatment. The effect of different curing temperatures of nano TiO2 treatment on yellowness, hydrophilicity, self-cleaning of red wine stains and disperse dyeing properties of PET fabric was investigated. The results show that curing of nano TiO2 on the PET fabric should be done at the temperature not less than 180°C. With nano TiO2 treatment, the hydrophilicity and self-cleaning properties of PET fabric were increased. The effect of nano TiO2 treatment on the dyeing properties of three disperse dyes, viz. C.I. Disperse Red 60, C.I. Disperse Violet 33 and C.I. Disperse Red 167, was examined. Nano TiO2 treatment influenced on the color strength of each dyes in a different way.
