Grafting modification is a common method for improving the specific properties of polysaccharides. Herein, we synthesised sodium alginate‐g‐poly (acrylic acid) (NaAlg‐g‐PAA) as a novel printing thickener via catalysis of horseradish peroxidase and hydrogen peroxide in the presence of acetylacetone. The synthesised products were characterised by Fourier Transform–infrared spectroscopy and polar nuclear...
Wool is a natural biopolymer with special properties, including warmth retention and skin‐friendliness. However, its application in the textile industry is limited by the scale layer that covers its surface, which prevents the efficient diffusion of dye into the interior of its fibres, and increases wool's susceptibility to shrinkage during washing. Here, dissolution with sodium bisulphite is used...
