Effect of nano-sized silver/zinc particles in pigment printing paste on color performance [Pi̇gment baski pati i̇le basilmiş nano boyutta gümüş/çi̇nko parti̇külleri̇n renk performasi üzeri̇ne etki̇si̇]

In this study,it is aimed to obtain functional fabric by adding nano-sized silver/zinc metal basis particle into pigment printing paste. at the stage of printing,nano-sized silver and zinc were mixed and the paste was printed by hand screen technique on cotton fabric. the nano metal particles on the surface of pigment printing were determined with electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray technique (edx). the color properties of treated fabrics; cie l * a * b * color coordinates,k/s color strength and rubbing fastness were investigated. when the effect of nano metal particles on the surface of printed fabrics was examined it was found that the color coordinates has changed and rubbing fastness has decreased. antibacterial functional properties of the printed fabric will be determined in future studies.
