Printed textiles

Pigments. Pigment-printed textiles represent the highest percentage of all printed textiles, accounting for between 40 and 50% of all ceUulose and over 90% of polyester—cotton blend prints. This is primarily the result of the uncompHcated process, low cost of imparting colored patterns to textiles with pigment systems, and theh appHcabiHty to all fibers. 

Tubes and Perforated Tubes Electrodepositing nickel non-adherently all over the curved surface of a cylinder, and then sliding off the coating, produces a tubular nickel product. Some tubes manufactured in this way are plain, but most are perforated. They are used industrially for screen printing textiles, carpets and wall paper .

Printing on textiles is one of the major areas of pigment application and is usually considered separately from the graphics industry. Requirements to be met by pigments for this purpose depend especially on the expected performance of the final article, the printed textile (Sec. 1.6.2.4). 

Zinc sulfate (ZnSO ZH O) is also known as zinc vitriol or white copper. In addition to being used to make rayon, zinc sulfate is used as a wood preservative, a dietary supplement, an animal feed, and as a mordant to prevent dyes from running in printed textiles. It can also be used to stanch bleeding. 

Cadmium chloride (CdCy, a soluble crystal, is formed when cadmium metal is treated with hydrochloric acid (Cd + 2HC1 — CdCl + H ). CdCl is used in dyeing and printing textiles, in electroplating baths, in photography, and as the ingredient for cadmium yellow in artists oil paint. 

Barium acetate is used as a mordant for printing textile fabrics for drying paints and varnishes in lubricating oil in the preparation of other acetates and as a catalyst in organic synthesis. 

Cadmium acetate is used for glazing ceramics and pottery in electroplating haths in dyeing and printing textiles and as an analytical reagent for sulfur, selenium, and tellurium. 

Cerium(IV) sulfate is used in radiation dosimeters and as an oxidizing agent in volumetric analysis. The tetrahydrate is used in dyeing and printing textiles, and in waterproofing. 

Potassium thiocyanate is used in dyeing and printing textiles to make artificial mustard oil as a slimicide in paper production for controlling microbial growth in cooling water and in the preparation of organic thiocyanates. The salt also is used in analytical chemistry in Volhard titration. 

Sodium thiosulfate is a common analytical reagent used in iodometric titration to analyze chlorine, bromine, and sulfide. Other uses are in bleaching paper pulp, bleaching straw, ivory, and bones, for removing chlorine from solutions, silver extraction from its ores, a mordant in dyeing and printing textiles, and as an antidote to cyanide poisoning. 

Tin(lV) oxide occurs in nature as mineral cassiterite. It is used to make specialty glasses, in manufacturing enamels and pottery, for pohshing glass marbles, metals and decorative stones, as a mordant in dyeing and printing textiles, in perfumes, and nail pohshes. 

Acetate Aluminum acetate A1(C2H302)3, white crystals, soluble, by reaction of aluminum hydroxide and acetic acid and then crystallizing. Used (1) as a mordant in dyeing and printing textiles, (2) in die manufacture of lakes, (3) for fireproofing fabrics, (4) for waterproofing cloth.
