Optimization of Solvent Based-Dyes by Using Lady’s Mantle and Zinc Borate

This study aimed to improve the physical properties of dyes by adding various additives in solvent based dyes for some sectors such as metal industry and wood preservation. The physical tests as viscosity, hydrophobicity, drying time, hiding power/transparency were applied on surfaces. Taguchi optimization method was used to determine the most effective parameters and the characterization of molecular bonds was investigated with FT-IR. It is observed that the lady’s mantle develops the hydrophobic property and the pumice increased the adhesive effect of dye. According to the test results the additives did not affect the glossiness, color availability and drying time as a negative result. When the dyes prepared were compared reference dyes, it was seen that hydrophobicity and hiding power/transparency effects were increased. FT-IR spectra showed that the dyes prepared had similar bonds with reference dyes.
