Bioinspired Catechol‐Functionalized Zwitterionic Waterborne Polyurethane for Enhanced Wet Rubbing Fastness and Color Fixation of Denim Fabrics
Inspired by the adhesive chemistry of mussel foot proteins, two catechol‐functionalized polyamine chain extenders (NCA1 and NCA2) were synthesized via reductive amination and incorporated into zwitterionic waterborne polyurethane (WPUIP) systems for enhancing the wet rubbing fastness of denim fabrics. Structural charac...
