Structural Transformation and Dyeing Performance of Poly(Ethylene Terephthalate) Filament Using Dicationic Imidazolium Ionic Liquid

Development of Binder-Free Pigment Inks for Direct Inkjet Printing on Cotton Fabric without Pretreatment

“…Because of the single molecule existence of dye inks, the dye-based coloring process is simple, quick, and gives bright colors on the textile substrates. However, the single-molecule structure of dye colorants has problems, too, such as poor light fastness, weak acid/alkali resistance, color migration, and inadequate washing and rubbing fastness. , Scientists worldwide have been trying to develop new technologies to solve these problems, such as polymer-based microemulsions for improving light stability, rub fastness, and washing fastness . Macromolecular dyes also have been synthesized to enhance cotton fibers’ washing and light fastness .…”

Structural, energetic and dynamic investigation of poly(ethylene oxide) in imidazolium-based ionic liquids with different cationic structures

“…32 Only a few studies reported that DILs have great advantages over MILs in enhancing the mechanical properties and stability of the polymer electrolyte, due to the formation of polymer-dication networks. [33][34][35][36] However, there is still a lack of quantification studies on molecular interaction and dynamic formation of micro-structures in polymers/DILs especially in comparison with polymer/MIL systems, which is of great significance to both theoretical exploration and novel material design.…”
