Abstract
silicone rubber is a well-known commercial water repellent, which is commonly applied on polyester fabrics. Herein, we are developing a simple approach toward imparting polyester fabrics' water-repellent and UV protection properties. Polyester fabrics are treated with RTV silicone rubber as a water-repellent finishing material and titanium dioxide nanoparticles as a UV protection finishing material using the pad-dry-cure technique. The treated fabrics are afterward printed with a photochromic dye. All the required measurements are investigated and discussed in detail.
