| Abstract | ||
| The environmental aspects of manufacturing are gaining more attention in today's world, especially in the textile industry. However, converting industry to green technology is a critical necessity in the present day to protect our environment from the poisonous effects of industrial effluents; thus, it will be a significant beneficial contribution to safe and healthy living on the planet. Using natural polymers with a variety of desirable characteristics such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, low toxicity, and high biological activity is gaining popularity year after year. Until now, a variety of synthetic chemical compounds have been used to functionalize textiles, that are harmful to humans and aquatic ecosystems and are difficult to degrade. Natural materials, on the other hand, match the current need for industrial applications due to their never-ending sources and advantages over synthetic products. In this study, natural cationic biopolymers such as chitosan, and amino-cellulose have been used to help in increasing dye absorption while improving fabric performance characteristics such as antimicrobial function. The optimum dyeing conditions were (polymer concentration, 2 %;75°C; 45 min.; L: R 1:50) with pH 6 for wool, 4 for acrylic and 8 for cotton fabric using two different dyes natures (basic and natural (moringa extract)). | ||
