We investigated the color and chemical characteristics in a radial direction of partially black-streaked heartwood samples. Color properties （pH value, inorganic element, extractive content and extractive characterization） were measured in the color co-ordinates CIELAB system. The results show that the black streak part was 12-15 brightness （L^＊） value units less than the normal heartwood. Furthermore, the black streak part had more red （a^＊） but less yellow （b^＊）, hue （h） and chroma （C^＊） than the normal wood. The pH value, ash content and calcium contents of the black streak part were slightly higher than those obtained for the normal wood. The content of the low-polar extractive （n-hexane and ethyl acetate） of the black streak part was considerably higher than that for the normal wood. The blackening process was speculated to be a kind of defense mechanism indicated by remarkable amount ofbioactive compound called tectoquinone.展开更多

The obtained cationic cotton was dyed with reactive dyes in the ab-sence of electrolyte. The effects of the characteristics of the cationic agent and the pretreatment conditions on dye-ability of reactive dye were investigated. The results showed that the fixation and K/S values of the reactive dyes on the cationic cotton were improved compared with those on the untreated one in the presence of salt. Tests on fast-ness properties of the dyed cotton and fabric quality of the pretreated cotton were carried out and the results showed that wash and rub fastness of the salt-free dyeing were both satisfactory. And anti-crease property,tensile and tear strength,and handling of the cationic cotton were also good compared with that of the untreated one.展开更多
