Application of natural dyes on textiles

TLDR
In this paper, the authors have reported the studies available on the characterization and chemical/biochemical analysis of natural dyes; extraction of colorants from different natural sources; effects of different mordants and mordanting methods; conventional and non-conventional methods of natural dyeing; physico-chemical studies on dyeing process variables and dyeing kinetics; development of newer shades and analysis of colour parameters for textiles dyed with natural dye.
Abstract
This paper reports the studies available on the characterization and chemical/biochemical analysis of natural dyes; extraction of colorants from different natural sources; effects of different mordants and mordanting methods; conventional and non-conventional methods of natural dyeing; physico-chemical studies on dyeing process variables and dyeing kinetics; development of newer shades and analysis of colour parameters for textiles dyed with natural dyes; and test of compatibility for application of binary mixture of natural dyes. The chemical modification of textile substrate for improving dyeability, attempts for improvement in overall colour fastness properties and survey of some traditional processes of natural dyeing in different parts of India have also been discussed.

Acceptability of cotton fabric treated with dye extracted from Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) calyces based on its phytochemical composition and evaluation of organoleptic attributes

TL;DR: Organoleptic attributes of cotton fabric treated with dye extracted from roselle calyces identified include: Fairly warm maroon colour hue, fairly light value, fairly brilliant chroma, smooth and fairly soft textures, odourless and even shade colour which were all accepted as good attributes of dye on fabrics by both categories of evaluators.

Dyeing of Wool with Anthraquinone based Natural Colorants from Cassia fistula fruit

TL;DR: In this article, the dyeing potential of Cassia fistula as a source of natural dyes has been explored and the results showed that it has the potential to be used as a new source of dyes.

Application of natural dyes by padding technique on textiles

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the findings from investigations into adapting the padding process for dyeing cotton and wool using natural dyes, and the aim was to apply traditional dyes employing current and emerging technologies of textile colouration.
