Two reactive dyes (P1 and P2) based on salicyladehyde‐4‐amino‐benzoylhydrazone, which show high sensitivity and selectivity in sensing Zn 2+ , were synthesized and used to modify nonwoven silk fabrics. The prepared silk fabric was then characterized by IR, UV‐Vis, and fluorescence measurements. The results showed that reactive dyes were chemically reacted with silk fibers, rather than physical absorption. Moreover, compared with raw silk fabric, functional silk fabric was bestowed the properties of Zn 2+ detection and improved absorption capacity of Zn 2+ . © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.
