Abstract:

Aiming at high pollution and high energy consumption in traditional printing and dyeing industry, this paper reviewed a new green and environmentally friendly method, i.e. the structurally coloration method. Chromogenic principle of the photonic crystal structure was introduced and the preparation of structured color fabrics based on photonic crystal was systematically reviewed, including the one-step method (photonic crystal was directly coated on fabrics) and the two-step method (fiber to fabric). The literature shows that the gravity sedimentation and the vertical deposition were simple and the thickness of the structurally colored film obtained by electrostatic self-assembled could be controlled. Inkjet printing was found able to achieve precise printing on fabrics. Atomization deposition might be applied to irregular surfaces, and magnetron sputtering could be wildly used in fabrics of various materials. Structurally colored fabrics prepared by the two-step process were firm in color but complicated in fabrication. Future work in developing structurally colored fabrics was discussed.

Key words: photonic crystal, opals, structural color, structurally colored fabric, angle-independent
