Abstract

The use of natural dye has increased globally in order to prevent the environment from
pollution. Thus, the natural dye extract from Isatis tinctorialeaves which produces a vibrant indigo
shade and alum was chosen as the natural mordant. A novel attempt was made by choosing Nelumbo
nucifera and Citrus × sinensis the two different lyocell fabrics for the study of colourfastness effects
at various concentration of dye and mordant. Here the dye concentrations were taken in the ratio of
1:20 and 1:40, mordant at 10% and 20%, the values of colour efficiency (K/S) value and colour
fastness (Light, Washing & Rubbing) was analysed. From the observation made on the colour depth
on the natural dyed fabrics Citrus × sinensis has shown better result.
