Sustainable Microwave-Assisted Extraction of Santalin from Red Sandal Wood Powder (Ptrecarpus santalinus) for Bio-Coloration of Mordanted Silk Fabric

The coloring behavior of santalin, a natural reddish-brown dye derived from sandalwood, has been investigated in this work for the dyeing silk fabrics while being heated MW radiation. Microwave (MW) radiation up to 5 min employed isolate colorant (Santalin) red sandalwood (Ptrecarpus santalinus) selected medium, and bio-mordants competing with salts as chemical-mordants have included. Statistical analysis was made variables were getting dark shades though mordants. treatment 3 min. both extract fabric mild conditions optimized statistically get shades. On applying chemical mordants, amount Al+3, Fe+2 T.A. before after dyeing, given good results. Comparatively, extracts plant based sources shown colorfast high strength. excellent potential form plants using optimum medium through less time energy, application along sustainable developed
