Sažetak
The paper examines the influence of cotton cationization on the print quality in terms of penetration, colour yield and colour depth, which have been analysed in comparison to cotton untreated and pretreated with conventional acrylate binder. The process of cationization during mercerization was performed with a cationizing agent Rewin DWR (CHT Bezema). Standard (noncationized) and cationized fabric, with and without additional layering of binder have been printed by digital inkjet pigment printing method. Moisture management testing (MMT) and dynamic contact angle measurement (drop shape analyzer– DSA30S) were performed on standard and cationized fabric, with and without binder, both with and without pigment layer. After printing, the objective values of colour depth (K/S) and colour parameters L*, C* and h° were analysed. The samples were also analysed by the method of microscopic imaging using a DinoLite microscope. Printed samples were tested to washing fastness, and the results are presented in terms of total colour difference (dECMC), according to CMC(l:c) equation, after the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th and 10th washing cycles. Results showed that the cotton cationization will improve the uniformity and coverage of the printed area as well as increase the K/S value. For the samples with binder, the positive effect of cationization on the stability and bond strength between the polymer layer as a pigment carrier with the cotton fabric was confirmed.
