Abstract
- The reaction of cyanoethyl cellulose with para-bromo diazonium chloride resulted in the creation of a novel bromo-containing cellulosic (MCPT). The dispersion stability of MCPT has been improved by its dispersion into 1% waterborne polyurethane acrylate (WPUA). TEM, particle size, and zeta potential were used to track the dispersion stability of aqueous MCPT and MCPT in 1% WPUA and particle size. The prepared MCPT has been utilized as a unique green colorant (dye) for the printing of cotton, polyester, and cotton/polyester blend fabrics using a silkscreen printing technique through a single printing step and one color system. Color improvement has been achieved by printing different fabrics with a printing paste of MCPT dispersed in 1% WPUA. The MCPT and MCPT in 1% WPUA printed fabrics were evaluated for rubbing, light, washing, and perspiration fastness, UV blocking activity, and antibacterial activity. These findings were established through structural optimization at the DFT/B3LYP/6-31 (G) level and simulations involving several proteins.<br /> (© 2023. The Author(s).)
