Dyeing of curcumin and durable press finishing with citric acid on cotton fabric using one step process

Cotton is an affordable and durable option for clothing. However, cotton garments tend to wrinkle easily. Therefore, fabrics were studied improve their resistance properties. In this work, curcumin was mixed in aqueous solution of citric acid its catalyst applied fabric using pad-dry-cure process both the dyeing finishing Aloe vera extract chitosan used compare reaction functional groups with carboxyl on fabrics. The mixture showed anti-wrinkle properties treated cotton. There no detected FTIR spectrum fabric. Furthermore, acetyl group methyl aloe found spectra each compound. It also that good UV protection antibacterial gram-positive This has physical potential be healthcare, hygiene medical textile products.
