A Study on the Mechanism of Cellulose Nanocrystals to Enhance the Stability of Hydrophobic Phthalocyanine Green in Water and the Functional Characteristics of Colour Pastes
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) prepared by sulfuric acid hydrolysis were added to phthalocyanine green colour pastes with a surfactant to improve stability. The particle size, zeta potential, absorbance, and microstructure of the colour pastes were analyzed and characterized. The mechanism of CNCs to...

description | Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) prepared by sulfuric acid hydrolysis were added to phthalocyanine green colour pastes with a surfactant to improve stability. The particle size, zeta potential, absorbance, and microstructure of the colour pastes were analyzed and characterized. The mechanism of CNCs to enhance the stability of hydrophobic phthalocyanine green in water was investigated. The functionalized application of the colour pastes was explored by mixing colour pastes with coating-forming substances to prepare phthalocyanine green paint. The results show that CNCs could enhance the stability of phthalocyanine green in water and form a binary system with non-ionic surfactants in colour pastes. The system could make phthalocyanine green colour pastes have very good dispersion and stability and mix well with coating-forming substances. The phthalocyanine green paint had excellent performance. As a renewable and naturally degradable biomass resource, CNCs have the potential to be applied for the dispersion and stabilization of hydrophobic pigments by compounding with surfactants. |
