LIT UPDATE : Nanobubbles!! for fabric dyes
Our lit literature this week is from Dr. Mohsin and colleagues:
\nMohsin, M., Sardar, S., Hassan, M., Akhtar, N., Hassan, A., & Sufyan, M. (2020). Novel, sustainable and water efficient nano bubble dyeing of cotton fabric. Cellulose, 27(10), 6055\u20136064.
\nThey showcase awesome research on optimizing a nanobubble dye process for cotton fabrics! Tune in as we discuss more on this lit research!
