The high production yields of pigments by Talaromyces spp. and their high thermal stability have implied that industrial application interests may emerge in the food and textile industries, as they both involve subjecting the colourants to high temperatures. The present study aimed to assess the potential application of the pigments produced by Talaromyces spp. in the textile area by studying t...

The dyeing of woolen yarn with eggplant peel, a natural colorant, has been studied. The main coloring component in this natural colorant is anthocyanin, which is an interesting class of dyes in the blue and red area. Eight mordants including alum, copper sulfate, ferrous sulfate, potash alum, nickel chloride, zinc sulfate, tin chloride, and potassium dichromate were used for mordanting the ...

The goal of this project is to assess the effect natural dye absorption from turmeric powder on cotton fabrics. At commencement, fabrics are mordanted with two different processes, one synthetic mordanting, and another bio mordanting. Both mordanting processes done at 100°C temperature for 60 minutes then dyed 80°C minutes. Application was made mordants. After completing dyeing process, color f...

In this work, dyeing properties of wool samples with Alkanna tinctorum root extract was investigated. For purpose, two different dyestuff extracts, red and blue are gained from its roots acetone ethanol solvents, as well. Wool fabrics (194 pieces) dyed AIK(SO4)·12H2O, FeSO4·7H2O, CuSO4·5H2O, AgNO3 CoCI2·6H2O mordants at pH 2, 4, 6 8, respectively. Unmordanting, pre-mordanting, meta-mordanting, ...
