        abstract = {his study examines the technical performance of commercial photochromic pigments applied to textiles via screen printing. The results show limited photostability of the pigments, but incorporation of ultraviolet absorbers. The preparation technology of photochromic screen printing on the fabric. Which applying a special “photochromic pigment” to the substrate using a screen-printing technique, where the pigment change color when exposed to the ultraviolet (UV) light. They can also change from one color to a different color by combination with a permanent pigment. Essentially the design creating that appears or changes color depending on the light condition, it is achieved by using a light sensitive emulsion on the screen to create the desired stencil design for the pigment transfer. This research contributes to the growing interest in chromic textiles for creative design, functional, and smart applications, and provides a foundation for further investigation into photochromic pigments on textiles.},
