The fluorescence intensity of the acceptor is improved due to the introduction of the donors, and the largest enhancement is obtained to be 128% in the PM567:CV670 dye mixture system. Energy transfer parameters, including the radiative and nonradiative energy transfer rate constants (KR and KNR), critical distance (R0), and half quenching concentration ([A]1/2) are investigated using the Stern–Volmer plots, and the acceptor concentration dependencies of radiative and nonradiative transfer efficiencies are also obtained. The values of KR for PM567:CV670 and PM580:CV670 systems are 2032.0×109 L·mol-1·s-1 and 2790.4×109 L·mol-1·s-1, respectively, and the values of corresponding KNR are 3.3×109 L·mol-1·s-1 and 4.2×109 L·mol-1·s-1, respectively. The results indicate that the dominant mechanism responsible for the energy transfer in the dye mixture systems is of the radiative type.展开更多

Nowadays, the production of silica pigment is quite expensive, and therefore, it would be advantageous to find a cheaper raw material source. In this study, the raw material was Greek olivine from magnesite mine sidestreams. The silica pigment was produced at laboratory scale by using nitric acid as a solvent. The target of this work was to clarify how this produced silica pigment is suited for inkjet coating pigments. The coating colors were applied by a laboratory rod coater on fine base paper and white-top kraftliner, and the coated surfaces were printed with a home and office area inkjet printer. The results showed that the produced olivine-based silica pigment has a potential in matt inkjet coatings. The coating of the produced silica pigment increased the print density, decreased the print-through, and diminished the bleeding of fine paper and white-top kraftliner board. However, further development work is needed to improve the pigment brightness to a more acceptable level, and to control the particle size at the nitric acid dissolution.展开更多
