Abstract
Cotton textiles tinting of by direct and reactive dyes using consumption method has been done by nanoparticles technicality. Gadolinium doped Zinc oxide nanoparticles ( Gd3+/ZnO) were successfully coated onto the surface of the cotton fabrics. ZnO and 2%wt ( Gd3+/ZnO) nanoparticles are synthesized by precipitation method. The morphology, microstructure and functional groups were characterized for both of them through X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) , energy-dispersive analysis X-ray spectra (EDX), and FTIR spectroscopy. The diameter distribution of ZnO and 2%wt ( Gd3+/ZnO) nanoparticles were confirmed by (TEM ) analysis, the average size of particles was found to be 100 nm, 50 nm respectively .The dye exhaustion percentage (E%) and color strength (K/S) of direct orange 85 and reactive red 195 onto treated cotton fabrics is generally better than that obtained by using untreated samples under the same conditions . The overall fastness properties to rubbing, light, perspiration, washing for the colored samples are ranging from very good to excellent. Nano treatment improves the cotton surface and decreases the environmental impacts and fabric damage.
