Dye Extraction from Mango Peel and Dyeing of Cotton, CVC and Viscose Fabric Using Extracted Mango Peel Dye and Natural Mordant

Natural dyes are environmentally suitable due to their ecology, minimum impact on the environment and pollution. It can bea substitute of chemical dyes which have some serious concerns about the environmental impact. The objective of this studyis to extract natural dyes from mango peel and apply them on three different fabrics (cotton, Chief Value Cotton, Viscose) tocompare which fabric is more suitable. Tannin extracted from tea leaf was used as natural mordanting agent. Both dye andmordant were extracted using a hot aqueous extraction method. Results shows that mango peel dye can be an effective andsustainable alternative to synthetic dyes with promising potential for application in textile processing. Moreover, the tanninextracted from tea leaves enhanced the dye's adherence to all three fabric types that shows good color fastness and durability.
