Abstract

Natural dyes are widely considered for their environmental properties and ease of use. In this study, Lyocell fabrics were dyed with natural dyes, extracted by peeling oranges, and evaluated comparatively based on color efficiency (K/S), CIE L*a*b* values, and fastness. Re-infer minerals using metal (II) sulfates and copper sulfate (II). In order to extract the dye, the standard technique of water extraction is used. The dyeing effect of Lyocell fabric was checked at 2% and 4% by the method of pre-immersion and post-immersion. The study found that this seasoning affects the efficiency of the color of the fabric dyed with orange peel. All dyed samples showed better, better color efficiency (K/S: 4.57) at 4% concentration levels during the post- mordanting processing (K/S: 4.57), color fastness of washing, light, and friction, and sweat. In general, the post- mordanting method at the 4% concentration level has a significant effect on color efficiency and color fastness characteristics.

Highlights

  • Since 1856, the use of synthetic dyes has opened enormous benefits to apply depth colors to the textiles due to their light weight, ease of processing, quite lower costs, and moderate-to-excellent color fastness properties [1]

  • Orange peel was used for dyeing Lyocell fabric with two types of mordants i.e., ferrous sulfate and copper sulfate, at two different concentrations (2% and 4%)

  • Lyocell fabrics were dyed with orange peel

Summary

Introduction

Since 1856, the use of synthetic dyes has opened enormous benefits to apply depth colors to the textiles due to their light weight, ease of processing, quite lower costs, and moderate-to-excellent color fastness properties [1] Their discarding process and petroleum source products have created severe hazardous to our environment due to their nonbiodegradable nature [2]. It improves the color application performance of dyes and fibers by increasing attractiveness [20] It gives different shades when applied in different percentages. The bright orange color extracted from OP generally originates from phenolic compounds and increases with its concentration [21] It has antimicrobial and UV-protection properties and for that reason, could be used as a natural dye or textile. Two agents (ferrous sulfate and copper sulfate) should be used to evaluate their excellent application in the use of Lyocell fabrics
