What is it about?
To match the reflectance profile of desert colors including dark brown, light brown and olive green in the visible-near IR (Vis-NIR) bands, five selected colored pigments were utilized to print woven cotton/nylon fabrics. Multi-walled carbon nanotube particles (MWCNT’s) were also added to some of the printing pastes.

Why is it important?
In dark brown sample, adding MWCNTs to the pigment printing pastes could tune the overall reflectance in order to match the standard reflectance profile accepted for use in concealment color of desert areas.
