Abstract:

The present of this study aims to the use of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) improving the ability of fiber in the dyeing process. Carboxymethyl cellulose was synthesized from cellulose of banana leaves by esterification method. The effect of carboxymethyl cellulose contents on the structure, thermal properties and dye absorption were also investigated. Then, the CMC/PP composite fibers were obtained from single screw extruder at various contents of CMC (1wt%, 3wt% and 5wt%). The results from XRD showed that CMC were good compatibility with PP composite fibers. The results of thermal analysis showed that the incorporation of CMC into PP did not affect the melt temperature of the composite fibers. After dyeing, the dye however was absorbed by the CMC/PP fibers more than the pristine PP fibers. The results of absorption of dye on the CMC/PP fibers from spectrophotometer showed that dye absorbability were significantly increased with CMC contents.
