Polyester fabric is widely used in textile material though it has some problems such as low colour value, high refractive ratio(1.62) and etc. In order to give Z-black colour of polyester fabric, this study has selected several disperse dyes by measuring of absorbance, dyed in their optimum conditions and treated with 4 kinds of low refractive compounds such as silicone, fluorine, urethane and silicone-fluorine mixed compounds. The bathochromic effect of treated PET fabric evaluated as lightness(L) change by uv-visible spectrophotometer. This study also investigated that the effect of used bathochromic agents on the washing and lightfastness of treated PET fabric.

In order to study on the surface modification of the poly(ethylene Terephthalate)(PET) fabrics, low temperature plasma$(O_2)$ has been irradiated on the PET fabrics in various conditions. Experiments were carried out at pressure ranging from 0.5 tort to 3 tort. The properties of PET fabrics treated with low temperature plasma($(O_2)$, such as bathochromic, wettability, antistatic property were measured. Etching ratio was increased as the pressure and the output of discharge increased. When its were put on the cathode, the most efficient effect of etching according to the position of sample between anode and cathode was obtained. The bathochromic effect has more or less improved as pressure was getting higth in case of dyed fabrics treated with only low temperature plasma$(O_2)$ . And when it was treated with the low refractive index resin, the bathochromic of dyed fabrics treated with low temperature plasma$(O_2)$ was better than that of the dyed fabrics untreated.

Plasma polymerization in prepared glow discharge was carried out to improve the bathochromic of dyed PET fabrics by using silicon containing vinyl monomer in plasma polymerization equipment which consists of a pair of electrodes was connected to the 13.56MHz RF generator. The optimum condition for the bathochromic effect was investigated on various plasma polymeriztion parameters. By plasma polymerization used silicon containing vinyl monomer, the bathochromic of dyed PET fabrics was very enhanced. The optimum conditions on this equipment were as follows ; electrode distance : 3cm, discharge output : 60W, gas pressure : 0.3 Torr, monomer flow rate : 30㎤/min. plasma polymerization time : 60sec. The apparent strength of plasma polymerized PET fabrics was increased about 40∼47% with decreasing about 3 of L value.

Of all the ways that energy is consumed within textile industry, few are as high energy-expending as dyeing process. The energy consumption in dyeing process amounts to 77% of total fuel consumption, 54% of total electricity use. A technical development in terms of efficient saving energy and time as well is required in the process of dyeing textiles. Recently, dyeing experts are investigating new technologies can conserve energy grafting into microwaves, radio waves, infrared lights, etc. Dyeing industry in Korea, however, the research related to energy conservation has been rarely conducted. Accordingly, this study aims to examine the possibility where especially microwaves could be applied to reduce the energy use and enhance dyeing process skill. This study performs the experiment in which microwave is employed as heating condition in dyeing and figures out as color yield being promoted, bathochromic effect would be achieved. Applying microwaves in dyeing process is expected to lower the carbon emission, energy and time wasted, ultimately exalt economic efficiency.

Low-temperature plasma treatment or sputter etching is of interest as one of the techniques to modify polymer surface. In this study, poly(ethylene terephthalate)(PET), nylon 6 and cotton fabrics dyed three black dyes were subjected to low-temperature argon plasma and also sputter etching. In relation to bathochromic effect, the surface characteristics of the treated fabrics and films were investigated by means of critical surface tension, SEM and ESCA measurement. The depth of shade of fabrics more increased by the sputter etching technique than argon plasma treatment. Many microcraters on the fiber surface formed by the sputter etching resulted in increase of surface area of the fiber and wettability, but the hydrophobic group was increased by the results of ESCA analysis. In particular the change in reflective index of the fibers was much more effective than the chemical composition of the fiber surface on increasing of the depth of shade.

The Purpose of this study was to investigate spectrophotometric characteristics of Korean knotweed extracts. The properties were evaluated by it′s extracting solvent, effect of metallic ion, variations of pH values and effect of light exposure. The results were as following; The highest absorbance was found in methanol extract of Korean knotweed, while the lowest absorbance was carbon tetrachloride extract. The UV-vis. spectra of Korean knotweed colors in several solvents showed hypsochromic shift of n-π/sup ＊/ transition with the polarity of solvent. Absorbance and peak of UV-vis. spectra of Korean knotweed colors became lower and broader by addition of metallic ion. The light stability in irradiation with xenon ]amp of the color solution with Cu were higher than those of Al and Fe. The UV-vis. spectra of Korean knotweed extracts in various pH values showed bathochromic shift under alkaline condition, and their peaks disappeared after 5 hours exposure.

In order to study the modification of wettability, tactility, and bathochromicity of the poly (ethylene Terephthalate) (PET) fabrics, low-temperature plasma$(O_2)$ has been irradiated on the PET fabrics in various conditions. The results obtained from this study were as follows; 1) The weight loss rate of plasma-treated PET fabrics is proportional to irradiation time and internal gas temperature of treating chamber. Also, the effect of weight loss is remarkable at gas pressure ranging from 3 torr to 5 torr. 2) The bathochromic effect of PET fabrics treated with low-temperature plasma$(O_2)$ was improved.

Stabilities of purple sweet potato (PSP) anthocyanin pigment on pH, sugars, organic acids, metal ions, ascorbic acid and light were investigated to provide the basic information for utilization of PSP as a potential source of anthocyanin pigment. pH has a marked influences on the color of the PSP anthocyanin solution; i.e., at low pH the color of PSP was more intense and stable. It showed characteristic bathochromic shift as the pH of the solution increased. Among the sugars tested, glucose showed a protective effect on the color of PSP pigment to raise the color intensity and stability, while sucrose and fructose showed an adverse effect. Addition of organic acids greatly increased the stability of PSP anthocyanin pigment. Citric acid was found to be the most effective followed by malic. tartaric, and succinic acids. Most metal ions except $Al^{3+}$ and $Cd^{2+} were found to be detrimental effect on the stability of PSP pigment. Ascorbic acid degraded PSP pigment considerably, and had a synergistic effect with oxygen on the pigment degradation. The effect of light on PSP pigment was found to be very deleterious. The pigment degradation can be minimized by shielding the light from the pigment solution.

The excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) fluorescence in the 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole (HBO) derivatives with different electron donor and acceptor substituents was studied by spectroscopic and theoretical methods. Changes in the electronic transition, energy levels, and orbital diagrams of HBO analogues were investigated by the semi-empirical molecular orbital calculation and were correlated with the experimental spectral position of ESIPT keto emission. It was found that the presence of substituents, regardless of their nature, resulted in the red-shifted absorption relative to HBO. However, the spectral change of the ESIPT fluorescence was differently affected by the nature of substituent: hypsochromic shift with electron donor and bathochromic shift with electron acceptor.
