These types of thickeners are categorized as nonionic associative thickeners. The HEURs were prepared in two steps. Initially an ethoxylated urethane prepolymer was synthesized through a reaction between a polyethylene glycol (Mn=6000) and hexamethylene diisocyanate using the step growth polymerization technique, then modification was carried out by reaction of cetyl alcohol with the obtained prepolymer. HEURs were characterized using 1H NMR, FTIR and GPC techniques.

The nano composite resin was prepared via miniemulsion polymerization of acrylate monomers in the presence of silver nanoparticles. The water fastness properties of the prints were assessed by using the ASTM /F2292-03 water fastness test.

X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope as well as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were performed to characterize the obtained samples. X-ray diffraction patterns revealed that in the case of citric acid a calcination step was needed to obtain the desired phases. Moreover, the ratio of rutile/anatase phases varied from 25/75 to 0/100 as the fuel type changes from urea to glycine and citric acid. The crystallite size of the as-synthesized samples calculated by Scherer formula was 8-15 nm. From scanning microscopy images thick and thin flaky particles were detected for citric acid and urea samples and porous spongy morphology for glycine sample.

It is more than half of a century that Principal Component Analysis PCA method has been applied to find the number of independent basis vectors of spectral dataset and representing spectral reflectance with lower dimensions. Recently, a new Interim Connection Space ICS named LabPQR was introduced, which contains three colorimetric dimensions and additional black metamer space. In the present study, the performance of PCA method in comparison to LabPQR was investigated for representation of spectral reflectance. For this end, different color datasets including Munsell, Glossy Munsell, GretagMacbethColorChecker, Esser test chart and two printing datasets were evaluated. The results show that, the performance of PCA and LabPQR, depends on the applied dataset. Based on spectral metrics such as RMS and GFC values, PCA has better results than LabPQR. Considering color difference errors, LabPQR is a better space even based on the color difference under second illuminant. Moreover, the used dataset for obtaining PQR vectors affects the representation results. For some datasets, the PQR components of the other sets perform better. However, obtaining PQR bases from the same data source, gives better results. Comparing Cohen and Kappauf based and unconstrained LabPQR methods showed that Cohen and Kappauf-based performs better for all the datasets.}, keywords = {Principal component analysis,LabPQR,spectral representation,metameric black}, url = {https://pccc.icrc.ac.ir/article_75781.html}, eprint = {https://pccc.icrc.ac.ir/article_75781_13d43b2117b49b40dc10b3006243da7e.pdf} } @article { author = {Khosravi, A. and Gharanjig, K. and Moradian, S. and Hosseinnezhad, M.}, title = {A Kinetic study on the dissolution of two naphthalimide based synthesized disperse dyestuffs in the presence of dispersing agents}, journal = {Progress in Color, Colorants and Coatings}, volume = {4}, number = {2}, pages = {107-112}, year = {2011}, publisher = {Institute for Color Science and Technology (ICST)}, issn = {2008-2134}, eissn = {2383-1790}, doi = {10.30509/pccc.2011.75785}, abstract = {The controlling kinetics of the water solubility of two synthesized mono azo naphthalimide based disperse dyestuffs in the presence of two different dispersing agents namely Irgasol DAM and lyoprint EV agents at various temperatures were investigated.
