Iranian researcher Dr. Shila Shahidi and faculty member at the Islamic Azad University of Arak has introduced a new method by which polyester fabrics could be dyed more efficiently through plasma surface activation.
The method is aimed at tackling the problems in traditional dyeing methods, such as weak dyeability, high-temperature, excessive use of water, and discharge of several chemical additives.
The method introduced in this work comprises the formation of functional groups on the surfaces of the polyester fabrics by using atmospheric pressure plasma.
