Inorganic Effect Pigment-binger System: Pigment Pickup% of Sol-gel Processed Cotton Textile

Abstract

Cotton plain-weaved woven fabric has been treated with inorganic effect pigment-binder system in water following the sol-gel process. Thickener and dispersing agent have been added to the solution. The fabric was then coated with the prepared solution using the sol-gel process. The pigment-coating was carried on Hochschule Niederrhein, Mönchengladbach, Germany Laboratory Padder by the help of squeezing roller. After coating, pigment pick up% was measured and compared with each other. In this work, the pickup% of effect pigment coated cotton textile will be measured and compared with each other.
