The enhancement of wool reactive dyes ink-jet printing through air plasma pretreatment

TL;DR: In this paper , a green and efficient air plasma pretreatment method was proposed to improve ink-jet printing performance of wool fabrics using reactive dye inks, which showed that the wool surface was etched after plasma treatment, which led to the increased contact area between wool fiber and dyes.
