- Abstract
Rubiadin dye extracted from Swietenia mahagoni has been applied onto silk fabric and its dyeing properties are evaluated using metallic mordants MgCl2 and FeSO4 as a function of dye concentration, dyeing temperature, dyeing time and pH. It is observed that the dye exhaustion significantly increases in case of FeSO4 as compared to that in case of MgCl2. Colour shades of dyed silk fabrics are found to be dark dull red, dark bright yellow and too dark red for unmordanted, MgCl2 mordanted and FeSO4 mordanted dyeing respectively. The colour strength of FeSO4 mordanted dyed fabric is found to be 3.19 times higher than unmordanted and 1.11 times higher than MgCl2 mordanted dyed fabrics. Dyed fabrics show good fastness properties. FeSO4 mordanted dyed fabric shows more resistance against light, washing, rubbing and perspiration as compared with the other mordanted and dyed fabrics.
