“…The surface energy of the cotton fabric was calculated using the geometric theory with the following equations :

\sqrt{{italicγ}_{S}^{normald} \times {italicγ}_{L}^{normald}} + \sqrt{{italicγ}_{S}^{normalp} + {italicγ}_{L}^{normalp}} = 0.5 \times {italicγ}_{normalL} \times false(1 + cos θ_{L} false)

{italicγ}_{normalS} = {italicγ}_{S}^{normald} + {italicγ}_{S}^{normalp}

where θ is the contact angle, the subscripts S and L refer to the solid and liquid phases respectively, γ d is the dispersive component of the surface energy, and γ p is the polar component of the surface energy. The surface tension (Table ) of the probe liquids and their contact angles were substituted into Eqn .…”

Ink dot distribution on cotton fabrics determines the colour performance of reactive dye inkjet printing, and ink drop spreading is one of the important factors influencing the ink dot distribution. In order to reveal the relationship between fabric pretreatment and ink drop spreading, two pieces of cotton fabric were pretreated respectively with sodium alginate and sodium alginate plus high fatty acid derivative solutions. Results indicate that the surface energy of the cotton fabrics was reduced from 73.79 to 69.45 and 58.49 mJ m−2 after the pretreatment with sodium alginate and sodium alginate plus high fatty acid derivative respectively. Correspondingly, the spreading area of cyan ink drops on these fabrics was reduced from 104.9 to 92.5 and 72.3 mm2. Furthermore, on the fabric treated with sodium alginate plus high fatty acid derivative, the strip‐like ink dots were narrow and short, which means the dye was concentrated in an area on the fabric surface. Colorimetric values of the inkjet‐printed fabrics demonstrated that the high fatty acid derivative would enhance the ability of sodium alginate to control ink droplet spreading, thereby improving the colour performance.

In this work, physical, chemical and morphological modifications of three different polyamide 6.6 (PA6.6) fabrics were investigated using double barrier dielectric (DBD) plasma treatment. Several techniques of characterization were used to study the effects caused by the interaction between plasma discharge and polyamide fabrics, such as: contact angle, water drop adsorption, Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), whiteness by Berger degree and tensile strength. All analyses performed in this study showed that DBD plasma discharge, when applied on PA6.6 fiber, produces significant modifications on the surface of this substrate, without altering its intrinsic properties, thus proving the effectiveness of this important technology to the textile industry.

“…This can react physically and chemically with other parts of the fabric to a depth of ten nanometers because of high reactivity. As a result, new functional groups on the surface are created, or as a result of the destruction, some functional groups are destroyed 61 . FTIR used to show which functional groups added or removed from the surface after treatment such as plasma.…”

In this paper, cotton fabrics were washed, bleached and then treated with low-temperature plasma of nitrogen then dyed with direct dyes. Some properties of the samples such as zeta potential, weight loss, crystal intensity, dyeability and washing fastness were investigated. The relative color strength and reflection properties of dyed samples were measured by using reflective spectrophotometry. The morphological changes of cotton samples after nitrogen plasma were studied by scanning electron microscope. Also chemical changes and zeta potential of samples have been investigated by using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and zeta sizer respectively. The results show that zeta potential of cotton fabrics influenced by plasma treatment and also dye, plasma treatment cause to improve color strength near 20%.
