Colorfastness properties of persimmon dye on cotton and wool substrates
Altmetrics
Abstract
Persimmon dye is a natural dye that imparts unique properties, including fungal resistance and water resistance. This study investigated persimmon dye's performance on cotton and wool fabric. Color strength and appearance of dyed cotton and wool fabrics at various dyeing conditions (mordanting order, dye concentration, and dyeing time length) were evaluated. Dyed fabrics had high color strength when using a mordant. Color strength on dyed cotton and wool increased with increased dye concentration and dyeing time. In this study, post-mordanting, 200% dye concentration, and 60 minutes dyeing length ...
