Cationic Surfactants in Textile Processing
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
Textile wet processing involves essential steps such as pretreatment, dyeing, printing, and finishing to improve the quality and functionality of textile materials. Surfactants, with their amphiphilic nature, play a pivotal role in these processes. This review highlights cationic surfactants' unique properties and wide-ranging applications in textile wet processing. It examines their types, mechanisms of action, and specific uses in enhancing fiber performance. Additionally, the discussion includes their advantages, limitations, and recent technological advancements, offering insights into how these compounds contribute to improved process efficiency and product quality. The environmental implications of cationic surfactants are also addressed, emphasizing the importance of sustainable practices and ecofriendly innovations in the textile industry. Cationic surfactants impart functionalities such as antimicrobial properties, moisture management, and self-cleaning capabilities. Structural correlation in terms of the function and the application performance of the quaternary ammonium compound-based products is elucidated. The economic implications of cationic surfactant usage in textile processing are significant. The economic implication can be derived based on the benefits of the efficient application, which can lead to reduced processing times, lower energy consumption, and improved product quality, all of which contribute to cost-effective manufacturing. Finally, the review explores future trends and potential research directions to balance industrial utility with environmental responsibility.
