dc.description.abstractThis work mainly addresses thermochromic (color changing by heat) textiles inspired by Hibiscus Flowers that changes color when the temperature changes. Similarly, the thermochromic finishes when applied to other materials also change colors with the change in temperature. One of the areas of this research is to explore the possibilities of this new surface design as a material. Besides exploring other possible options for the application of thermochromic textiles other the one most commonly used. Incorporating thermochromic inks / finishes in dyeing cotton fabric and yarn for weaving and knitting. Blending techniques for new outcome of designs like dyed cotton yarn and knitted fabric, etc were the bullet points. The idea behind conducting research in this section was to utilize thermochromic ink / finish in dyeing that has not been explored before. Using thermochromic inks / finishes for dying cotton fabric and cotton yarn and constructing knitted and woven structures with that dyed yarn by giving the fabrics water resistant surface and constructing a product by using that fabric is objective for this research.en_US
