In this study, the influence of dyeing on the antibacterial efficiency of polyamide and polyester fabrics loaded with colloidal Ag nanoparticles and the influence of the presence of Ag nanoparticles on the color change of dyed fabrics were investigated. Dyes C.I. acid green 25 and C.I. disperse blue 3 were used for dyeing of polyamide fabrics, while dye C.I. disperse violet 8 was used for dyein...

BACKGROUND This paper reports the results of investigations carried out from 1977 to today in some areas of Italy (Latium, Marche, Abruzzo and to a limited extent in Sardinia) concerning traditional uses of dyeing plants in the household. RESULTS Twenty-nine plants are described, distributed in 23 families, and for each species the vernacular name, the way it is used and the locations of trad...

The dyeing of textile materials is the most critical process in cloth production because of the strict technological requirements. In addition to the technical aspect, there have been increasing concerns over how to minimize the negative environmental impact of the dyeing industry. The emissions of pollutants are mainly caused by frequent cleaning operations which are necessary for initializing...

pdates on yarn dyeing technology U were shared among the 83 participants in the AATCC symposium held at Southern Pines, N. C., in April. The symposium included 11 presentations, problem solving sessions and a discussion session on the challenges of package dyeing microfibers. Developed by AATCC‘s Committee on Yarn Dyeing Technology, the two-day program offered registrants ampleopportunity to co...

Biomass pigments have been regarded as promising alternatives to conventional synthetic dyestuffs for the development of sustainable and clean dyeing. This investigation focused on in situ dyeing of fabrics with biopigments derived from tea polyphenols via non-enzymatic browning reaction. The average particle size of dyed residual liquor with natural tea polyphenol was 717.0 nm (ranging from 61...

The textile dyeing units of Pallipalayam area of Namakkal District play a vital role in polluting the river Cauvery directly and spoiling the underground water levels indirectly by letting off their dyeing effluents. This leads to serious environmental hazards of aquatic organisms. In the present study, the textile dyeing effluents of six major textile dyeing units (ST1, ST2, ST3, ST4, ST5 and ...

BACKGROUND Hair graying is considered as a part of normal ageing process. Nonetheless, this process raises a significant cosmetic concern, especially among ethnic Korean elderly whose baseline hair color is black. For this reason, Korean elderly dye their hair with frequency despite the risk of dermatologic problems such as allergic contact dermatitis. OBJECTIVE In this study, the authors inv...

Liposomes are lipid-water systems that can carry hydrophobic and hydrophilic materials because of their amphiphilic structures. Application of liposomes in dyeing and finishing textiles is a new technology based on targeting and slow release which can lead to dyeing at lower temperature along with energy savings and lower environmental impacts. In this research work, a practical method for dyei...

The natural dyes separated from plants are of gaining interest as substitutes for synthetic dyes in food and cosmetics. Thespesia populnea (T. populnea) is widely grown plant and used in the treatment of various diseases. This study was aimed to separate natural dye from T. populnea bark and analysis of its dyeing property on different fabrics. In this investigation pharmacognostic study was ca...
