  Abstract

Free radical graft polymerization of diallyldimethylammonium chloride (DADMAC) on cotton was employed to substantially improve the dyeability cotton with reactive dyes under salt-free conditions. The effects of plasma-induced graft polymerization of DADMAC on cotton, followed by dyeing with different reactive dyes, was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. A color fastness wash test was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of cotton cationization on reactive dye fixing. The results show that the salt-free dyeing process with reactive dyes was effective after cationization modification, and the dye uptake rate and dyeing depth are higher than the conventional dyeing techniques.
