Abstract

This study was aimed at identifying the color sensibility factors of cotton fabrics dyed with immature persimmon powder. The relationships of these factors with objective color characteristics, including tone, CIE color attributes, and mordanting, were determined and their prediction models, using the related objective parameters, were established. Fourteen dyed specimens, in a range of shades, were prepared as stimulus by dyeing cotton fabric with persimmon powder; some specimens were also subjected to iron-mordanting. Thirty-nine female college students evaluated these specimens based on 17 color image terms, using IRI color image scales. As a result, four color sensibility factors viz. clearness, vivid & dynamic, dignity, and natural & warmth were selected. Clearness, vivid & dynamic, and natural & warmth were more strongly perceived in non-mordanted fabric specimens. Pale increased the feeling of clearness while soft contributed to a stronger perception of natural & warmth. CIE <TEX>$L^*$</TEX> was positively related with clearness while <TEX>$b^*$</TEX> was a positive explainer for natural & warmth. All significant prediction models for the color sensibility factors were suggested for use in persimmon dyeing for textile and fashion products.
