Abstract
Tamarind gums from different areas in Thailand (Uthaithani, Ang Thong, and Nakhon Sawan) as a thickening agent were used for printing on polyester fabric with disperse dye in comparison to the commercial tamarind gum from India as presently used in textile printing. All tamarind gum samples presented high polysaccharide and protein contents. The obtained results indicated that the properties as colour values, colour strength (K/S), overall fastness properties, handling, and sharpness of printed polyester fabric were good to very good levels. Only slight differences were observed between our tamarind gum samples and commercial one.
