Application of natural dyes on textiles

This paper reports the studies available on the characterization and chemical/biochemical analysis of natural dyes; extraction of colorants from different natural sources; effects of different mordants and mordanting methods; conventional and non-conventional methods of natural dyeing; physico-chemical studies on dyeing process variables and dyeing kinetics; development of newer shades and anal...

Dyeing of Textiles with Natural Dyes

Sonochemical co-deposition of antibacterial nanoparticles and dyes on textiles

The sonochemical technique has already been proven as one of the best coating methods for stable functionalization of substrates over a wide range of applications. Here, we report for the first time on the simultaneous sonochemical dyeing and coating of textiles with antibacterial metal oxide (MO) nanoparticles. In this one-step process the antibacterial nanoparticles are synthesized in situ an...

Technical Facts & Figures of Reactive Dyes Used in Textiles

Textile industry comprises of dry mechanical and wet chemical processing,wet chemical process comprises of bleaches, dyeing , printing, & finishing. Dyeing is art of colouration to textiles.Dye get transferred to textile during dyeing. Dyeing operation is performed by the reaction between fiber and dyes. Some dyes are water soluble and some are water insoluble. Some fiber has affinity to dye; s...

Exploring and exploiting plants extracts as the natural dyes/antimicrobials in textiles processing

The large number of publications in the field of extraction, purification, modification, and process optimization of natural dyes and their application on textiles demonstrates the revival of natural dyes on textile coloration. The use of natural dyes is growing in popularity because of the quality of the natural dyestuff obtained, the environmental compatibility of the dyes and the substantial...
