| Abstract: | The
term natural dye, cover all the dyes derived from natural resources such as
plants, insects and animals. The colour fastness of a coloured textile is
therefore defined as its resistance to changes when subjected to a particular
set of conditions. Walnut (Juglans regia Linn.) is a large deciduous,
monoecious tree, mostly grown in un-reclaimed and poor soil. In the present
study an attempt has been made to dye cotton yarns with walnut bark dye and to
test the colour fastness of dyed material against light, crocking, perspiration
and washing. It has been found that walnut dye can be successfully used for
dyeing of cotton. This dye may be useful in imparting number of fast shades on
cotton using common mordants like Alum, FeSO4, CuSO4 and
Chrome with good fastness properties. Thus, this dye may find its use in dyeing
of cotton fabrics. |
