Journal Textile Coloration and Finishing Year / Vol., Issue, Month 2019 / V.31,no.2,Jun Title Investigation on Rubbing Fastness of Pigment Ink with Polymer Binders having Various Comonomer Composition Authors Minwoo Han, Woong Kwon, Euigyung Jeong* and Jin-Seok Bae** Institution/Affiliations Kyungpook National University Pages/Total page pp.77 ~ 87 / 11 Language Korean Abstract To improve rubbing fastness of the printed fabrics, the binder polymers for Digital Textile Printing(DTP) pigment inks were synthesized with miniemulsion polymerization using various acrylic monomers, which are MMA(Methyl methacrylate), BA(Butyl acrylate), and Self-crosslinking monomers, such as NEA(N-Ethylol acrylamide) and MAA (Methacrylic acid). The acrylic monomer compositions were varied when synthesizing the binder polymers and their particle size distributions, average molecular weights, and Tgs were investigated. The prepared binder polymers were applied to prepare Cyan, Black, Yellow and Magenta pigment ink for DTP and the prepared inks were used to dye cotton fabrics. Then, color strength, and rubbing fastness were also investigated to study the effect of the comonomer compositions of the binder polymer on the color strength and rubbing fastness of the resulting pigment inks.
