- Abstract
Application of natural dyes for textile is increasing due to the awareness of ecology, environment and pollution control. The objective of this study is to dye Tencel fabric with pomegranate peel natural dye for comparative analysis of colour efficiencies (K/S), CIE L*a*b* values and the colour fastness properties. The mordants used were ferrous (II) sulphate and copper (II) sulphate. For the extraction of dye, aqueous extraction method was used. Pre-mordanting method was used and dyeing effect on tencel fabric was analyzed at temperatures 80°C and 90°C. It was found that mordant type has an influence on color efficiency and the color coordinates of fabric dyed with pomegranate peel dye. The colour efficiency (K/S: 4) and color fastness to washing, light, rubbing and perspiration were better and outstanding (grade 4-5) at 90°C temperature in all dyed samples. In overall results, pre-mordanting method at 90°C temperature gives best results of color efficiency and color fastness properties.
