Laccase-catalyzed polymerization of syringic acid for eco-friendly cotton dyeing: Mechanism, optimization, and multifunctional performance
With the growing emphasis on environmental sustainability, the development of eco-friendly dyeing and finishing processes has become a focal point of research worldwide. In this study, cotton fabric was selected as the substrate, chitosan was employed as a modifier, and laccase was utilized to catalyze the polymerization of syringic acid, leading to the formation of colored polymers. This approach innovatively integrated monomer polymerization, fabric dyeing, and functional finishing into a single process. The structural characteristics of the polymerized products were analyzed using UV–Visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry, and the polymerization mechanism was systematically elucidated. The dyeing performance of the fabrics was evaluated based on K/S values, color fastness, and fiber surface morphology, while different dyeing methods were compared and optimized reaction conditions were determined. Additionally, the mechanical and functional properties of the dyed fabrics were investigated. Molecular dynamics simulations were employed to analyze the affinity and interaction modes between chitosan and the colored polymers. The results revealed that under laccase catalysis, syringic acid monomers underwent dehydrogenation, forming phenoxy (Ph-O) and phenyl (Ph-Ph) linkages, leading to the synthesis of polysyringic acid (PSA) with distinct coloration. Notably, Ph-Ph-linked PSA exhibited a stronger affinity with chitosan, primarily via CN bonding. Furthermore, the one-step dyeing process proved superior performance compared to the two-step process, yielding fabrics with uniform coloration, high color depth (K/S = 11.57), excellent color fastness (grade 4–5), and enhanced mechanical properties relative to undyed cotton fabrics. Moreover, the dyed fabrics demonstrated outstanding antioxidant, ultraviolet resistance, and antibacterial properties. This study provides a theoretical foundation and technical support for the advancement of green and sustainable dyeing and finishing technologies.
期刊介绍:
Dyes and Pigments covers the scientific and technical aspects of the chemistry and physics of dyes, pigments and their intermediates. Emphasis is placed on the properties of the colouring matters themselves rather than on their applications or the system in which they may be applied.
Thus the journal accepts research and review papers on the synthesis of dyes, pigments and intermediates, their physical or chemical properties, e.g. spectroscopic, surface, solution or solid state characteristics, the physical aspects of their preparation, e.g. precipitation, nucleation and growth, crystal formation, liquid crystalline characteristics, their photochemical, ecological or biological properties and the relationship between colour and chemical constitution. However, papers are considered which deal with the more fundamental aspects of colourant application and of the interactions of colourants with substrates or media.
The journal will interest a wide variety of workers in a range of disciplines whose work involves dyes, pigments and their intermediates, and provides a platform for investigators with common interests but diverse fields of activity such as cosmetics, reprographics, dye and pigment synthesis, medical research, polymers, etc.
