Abstract:
In today's world, every industry is moving towards a more environmentally friendly surroundings. The use of natural dyes continues to rise as people become more conscious of ecology, the environment, and pollution control. This paper describes how cotton fabric is dyed using natural dyes extracted from pomegranate peel. The mordants used were alum, myrobalan and banana pseudo stem. The colourfastness properties and colour co-ordinates of dyed fabrics were evaluated and the fabric samples showed very fair to good ratings of colourfastness with slightly stained to no staining.
