LIT UPDATE : Nanobubbles!! for fabric dyes

Our lit literature this week is from Dr. Mohsin and colleagues:  Mohsin, 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), 6055–6064.  They showcase awesome research on optimizing a nanobubble dye process for cotton fabrics! Tune in as we discuss more on this lit research! Other references:  Bauer Nanobubbles Very cool product!  Regan, Helen. CNN. (2020). Asian rivers are turning black.
