Blue dye (indigo) from Indigofera tinctoria leaves is a popular natural used worldwide. The lower light fastness of indigo dyes compared to that synthetic blue one the drawbacks former, limiting its utiliz

Cellulosic materials like cotton and linen are excellent textile substrates for dyeing with reactive direct dyes. Due to their cellulosic nature, exhibit good affinity towards This is the reason washing rubbing fastness. Chitosan a bio-based polymer gained by deacetylation of chitin. In contrast cellulose, chitosan exhibits also amino functional groups. The purpose this paper evaluate if based ...

In this study, 100% soybean and cotton suprem pique knitted fabrics were produced. Quality performance parameters, color fastness spectrophotometric results of the compared. The aim study is to reveal advantages weaknesses compared fabrics. When production test are examined, softer than Knitted protein fiber dimensional change worse cotton. Air permeability made from better therefore it can be ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the structure of reactive dye on cotton ink-jet printing. Cotton fabric was printed upon with three commercial cellulosic reactive dyes which are based on the similar chromophore and possess different numbers of reactive and anionic groups. Colour yield and absorbed dye fixation of the printed cotton were evaluated at various pHs. The i...

Nowadays, textile processing based on biotechnology has gained its importance in the view of stringent environmental and industrial safety conditions. The use of protease enzymes in protein fibers to improve some physical and mechanical properties is particularly interesting. In this research, wool yarns were first treated with different concentrations of protease enzymes in aqueous solution in...
