| Abstract | ||
| Natural sources, whether plant-based or animal-based, are considered one of the richest sources that can be utilized in textiles field due to their renewable and sustainability. They are also environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and biodegradable. These natural sources contain numerous compounds that are beneficial for textile wet processing, such as dyeing and finishing. Examples of these compounds include flavonoids, organic acids. Purslane, tomato leaves, and bee propolis are from these natural sources. Previous studies have shown that the extracts from purslane and tomato leaves can be used in wool dyeing and to obtain various types of metal nanoparticles. Bee propolis can also be utilized in medical textile finishing, such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and in wound healing. | ||
