Difference evaluation between plant dyed and industrial dyed cotton fabrics based on perceptual factors

An evaluation of UV protection imparted by cotton fabrics dyed with natural colorants

BACKGROUND The ultraviolet properties of textiles dyed with synthetic dyes have been widely reported in literature. However, no study has investigated the ultraviolet properties of natural fabrics dyed with natural colorants. This study reports the Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) of cotton fabrics dyed with colorants of plant and insect origins. METHODS Three cotton fabrics were dyed with...

Effects of Polycarboxylic acids on Untreated Cotton and Solubilised Sulphur Dyed Cotton

A number of polycarboxylic acids butane tetracarboxylic acid BTCA, polyacrylic-co-maleic acid PAMA, citric acid, maleic-itaconic MA-IA were examined, in combination with sodium hypophosphite SHP in order to give a similar high fabric crease recovery performance and whiteness index to traditional formaldehyde based crease agents. BTCA showed to be the best crease resist agent for crosslinking co...

Antifungal Activity of Natural Dye from Aerial Biomass of Barleria prionitisL. and Dyed Fabrics

Natural dye extracted from aerial parts of Barleria prionitis and different kinds of textile fabrics dyed with the natural dye were investigated for their antifungal activity. Antifungal activity of natural dye and dyed fabrics was assessed against standard strains of five fungi namely Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, A. parasiticus, Fusarium moniliforme and Penicillium canescens using agar-we...
