Delipidisation of wool fibres and the subsequent beneficial properties of delipidised wool fibres
Coloration Technology, EarlyView.Abstract Wool fibres are complex matrices of proteins and fatty acids/lipids found both internally and externally. 18‐methyleicosanoic acid (18‐MEA) is covalently bound to the surface of the fibre via a thio‐ester link, and is considered one of the most important lipids as it is responsible for the hydrophobic properties of wool fibres.

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the electrochemical decolorization of waste acid dye baths and evaluates their potential reuse in subsequent textile dyeing processes. Four different anode materials (iron, aluminum, stainless steel and graphite) were examined to optimize color removal efficiency and assess the influence of electrochemically generated ...

Investigation into the dyeing of pre‐mordanted & cationised woven cotton fabric with cochineal
Coloration Technology, EarlyView.Abstract Dyeing cotton with natural dyes typically requires the pre‐application of a mordant, which enables better dye exhaustion from solution and ‘fixes’ the colorant in the fibre. The most common application system for cellulosic fibres is a combination of plant‐derived tannins and aluminium salts, such as aluminium sulphate.

Investigation of factors affecting ozone yellowing in denim products
Coloration Technology, EarlyView.Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the source of ozone yellowing observed in denim trousers and to identify the most appropriate process flow to minimise it. For this purpose, standard pre‐washing, stone washing, and hypochlorite bleaching processes were applied to denim trousers.

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.Abstract Textile wet processing generates dye‐containing effluents that require effective recovery and valorisation strategies. Halloysite nanoclay was used to capture Reactive Red 195 from a model aqueous solution, and the resulting dye‐loaded solid (REDHA7) was subsequently applied once to cotton by exhaustion dyeing and pigment‐type printing ...

Fungal infection affects sexual signalling and mate choice in the sugarcane borer
Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Fungus‐infected Diatraea saccharalis females exhibit enhanced attractiveness to males in wind tunnel assays. Fungal infection alters the pheromone profile of females, increasing the relative abundance of Z9‐16: Ald, a minor but behaviourally active component of the species' sex pheromone blend.
