Abstract
Jute is generally not dyed with reactive dye though it is a cellulosic fiber. While jute is dyed with basic dye, but cotton, viscose, and other cellulosic fibers are frequently dyed with reactive dye. In this study, a novel method for dying blended jute fabrics with reactive dye after bleaching them is presented. Two different reactive dye colors were used to treat this blended jute fabric. By contrasting samples of non-dyed grey blended jute fabric, the GSM, Water uptake percentage, and FTIR of dyed fabric were examined. It has been observed that the dyed sample's GSM (average 76) is higher than the grey fabrics GSM (average 65) due to the chemical modification of grey blended jute fabric. Blended jute fabric has a lower water absorption percentage while dyed sample has a higher absorption percentage such as 150% in 40 min and 145% in 140 min. Due to chemical modification of the surface of the blended jute fabrics, the FTIR spectrum report reveals that –OH group peak appeared in the wave number of 3291 cm−1 and the dyeability of the fabric is significant based on peak analysis.
