Abstract

Abstract : Two derivatives of 3-amino-4-arylazo-1-phenylpyrazol-5-one have been used for dyeing un-irradiated and irradiated polyester and nylon fabrics using different absorbed doses of Co-60 gamma irradiation to study the effect of radiation treatment on the color strength of dyed fabrics. The data color report is used for the evaluation of un-irradiated and irradiated dyed polyester and nylon using GretagMacbeth spectrophotometer (CE 7000a) in CIE Lab system. The color strength K / S of the dyed polyester and nylon fabrics was increased by increasing the absorbed dose to 80 kGy. It is found that gamma irradiation has a potential to improve the fastness properties such as light, rubbing, perspiration, and washing.
