Investigation on dyeing mechanism of modified cotton fiber.

Cotton fabrics have been chemically modified with two cationic compounds. They were 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride and the copolymer of dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride and allyl glycidyl ether, respectively. Under the conditions of no inorganic salt, two modified cotton fabrics were dyed with reactive dyes.
