“…For both oxides used it can be concluded from the results that the colour strength of cotton fabrics as well as cotton/polyester blend fabrics decreases with increasing of the metal oxides concentrations. This may be explained in terms of higher extent of side interaction among the printing paste ingredients on the fabric surface thereby: i) minimizing the extent of release of pigment particles from thickener film and ii) decreasing their holding within the binder film as well as adhering to and fixation onto the substrate surface [18,19], leading to the fading effect of the colour strength obtained.…”

The paper deals with the improvement of the antimicrobial properties of gamma pre-irradiated cotton and cotton/PET blend fabrics, by using of different metal oxides (ZnO and Al2O3) as antimicrobial agents, through the printing process. The antimicrobial properties of the fabrics were evaluated, in terms of the mechanical properties after burying in a soil reach with microorganisms. Moreover, the effect of antimicrobial finishing on the printing properties, in terms of colour strength was investigated. It was found that the antimicrobial properties were enhanced by addition of the metal oxides up to 1% to the pigment printing paste, under pre-irradiation of fabrics up to 5 (kGy) for cotton and blend fabrics. The colour strength (K/S) of printed fabrics was increased by addition of 0.5% of metal oxides and pre-irradiation dose up to 5 (kGy) for cotton fabric and up to (10 (kGy) for blend fabrics. The thermal stability of the printed fabrics was evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) technique, which it showed a decreasing in the thermal stability by addition of the metal oxides, varying according to the types of fabrics and metal oxides used.

“…Many methods have been described [2] for the satisfactory washingoff of prints that have been obtained using dyes with good fibre affinity. Some of these methods have also become established in commercial practice.…”

“…In the past many attempts were made and a number of methods have been developed for printing polyester-blended fabrics. Several authors, including Zimmermann [ I 1 and Glover [2], have discussed the printing of polyestercellulose blends. Blends of polyester-wool and polyestersilk which, in the last two years, have become increasingly important in textile printing have hitherto only been mentioned in passing in the literature.…”
