Full text | Abstract: This paper deals with the surface properties of dyed cotton fibres, which were analysed by measuring the streaming potential. Diversified values of the potential were obtained for samples of fabrics dyed with model direct dyes 1-10. Changes in the streaming potential in water solutions of the model dyes were also analysed in order to determine the impact of polar functional groups of the dyes on their anion character. For a broader view of the phenomenon discussed, the analysis of the surface properties of fibres was supplemented with a description of the relative dye content in the fibre, using the K/S ratio. |
