This paper provides a general framework for studying the yellowing tendency of ozonated cotton fabric. Yellowing tendency of ozonated cotton fabric and ways to prevent this situation was examined extensively. For this purpose, five different treatments (hot/cold rinsing, washing, reductive washing, catalase treatment) were performed after ozonation. It was found that performing any kind of treatment was significantly important for preventing yellowing of ozonated cotton fabric during storage.
