Poor dyeing performance has been a major defect of polylactic acid (PLA) fibers, which is caused by the lack of active chemical groups in PLA, and hinders the widespread use of this biodegradable material. Most of the existing chemical modification methods are not environmentally friendly and produce effluents. Herein, we report a green, efficient and continuous method to process PLA fibers surface diffuse atmospheric plasma for the improvement of its hydrophilicity and dyeing performance. PLA fibers were processed atmospheric plasma for grafting oxygen-containing functional groups, such as carboxyl, to achieve hydrophilicity and, meanwhile, strengthen the binding interactions with various dye molecules covalent bonds, ionic bonds, or hydrogen bonds. In addition, different mechanisms of improving the dyeing performance on plasma-modified PLA fibers with different kinds of dyes have been discussed. This approach of material modification involves no chemical additives and has high processing efficiency, showing the potential applicability of green treatment to products in various fields.

Printing and dyeing wastewater (PDW) is characterized by various pollutants, making it one of the most difficult industrial wastewaters to treat and poses a serious threat to the natural environment and public health. This study investigated the use of an anaerobic-aerobic system combined with bioaugmentation using Ochrobactrum anthropi S1 to treat PDW. The results indicated that after three rounds of inoculation, Ochrobactrum anthropi S1 successfully colonized the system, achieving final removal efficiencies of reactive black 5, Cr(Ⅵ), COD, and ammonia nitrogen of 95 %, 65 %, 90 %, and 85 %, respectively.

Development of supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO) dyeing technology for natural fabrics and their blended fabrics is essential for the textile industry due to environmental and economic considerations. Wool (W), polyester (PET) and nylon (N) fabrics and their wool/polyester (W/PET) and wool/nylon (W/N) blended fabrics were dyed in SC-CO medium with a synthesized reactive disperse dye containing a vinylsulphone (VS) reactive group, which behaves as a disperse dye for synthetic fibers and a reactive dye for protein fibers. The SC-CO dyeing performance of all fabrics was investigated in terms of color strength, fixation, colorimetric and fastness measurements and compared with the conventional aqueous dyeing method.

Optical filters are essential components for a variety of applicative fields, such as communications, chemical analysis and optical signal processing. This article describes the preparation and characterization of a new optical filter made of polyvinyl alcohol and incremental amounts of crystal violet. By using distinct solvents (HO, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and HO) to obtain the dyed polymer films, new insights were gained into the pathway that underlies the possibility of tailoring the material's optical performance.

Unlabelled: The heterogeneous sonocatalysis is considered as an impressive remediation approach to eliminate the dyeing wastewaters. Among the efficient sonocatalytic remediation, nanocomposite sonocatalysts have grabbed special attention in recent years. In the presence research, the novel MIL-101(Fe)/ZrO/MnFeO nanocomposite as a magnetically retrievable catalyst was elaborated using the ultrasound-assisted hydrothermal route and its sonocatalytic performance was tested applying the methylene blue (MB), rhodamine B (RhB), congo red (CR), and methyl orange (MO) organic dyes under US/HO system.

Knit fabric is one of the dominating fabric types for wearable textile across the whole world and during the production of knit fabric, faults created by different reasons cause difficulties in the subsequent process. The existing fault detection process in the knitting industry is done manually by the human naked eye. To detect faults automatically, deep learning-based models are very efficient and can reduce the workload for fabric inspection.
