Abstract
AbstractIn this study, functionalized polymer nanolatexes based on P(MMA‐co‐BA‐co‐MAA) are synthesized by semicontinuous emulsion polymerization. An evaluation of the effect of reaction parameters such as monomer composition and initiators type on the latex properties is performed. Consideration of these effects allows the synthesis of low surfactant concentration‐high functionalized polymer nanoparticles as small as 29 nm. Then, a functionalized nanolatex is used as a binder in dyeing process of soybean protein fabric (SBF) using the cationic dye, Basic Red 46. Colorimetric tests show that the previous functionalization of soybean fibers with the nanolatex improves the efficiency of dyeing process by up to 13%. In addition, washing and rubbing fastness tests revealed that dyed functionalized fabrics had better performance than the one without nanolatex.
