| Article Name : | | | DYING COTTON AND SILK WITH SOME NATURAL DYES USING SINGLE POT METHOD CONTAINING ENZYMES | | Author Name : | | | Rajendra Kumbhar | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | GRT-5238 | | Article URL : | |  | Author Profile View PDF In browser | | Abstract : | | | The synthetic dye industries are most polluting industries in modern days. The dyes, use of chlorine for bleaching, caustic soda for scoring and heavy metal salts for mordent are main causes of the pollution. The synthetic dyes can be replaced by the natural plant based dyes, scoring can be done by soft soaps mixed with natural surfactants, chlorine for bleaching is replaced by hydrogen peroxide and metal mordents are replaced or minimized by use of enzymes. The enzymes are extracted from natural sources to make the process economical. The present work deals with the dying of cotton and silk using plant based dyes as pomegranate, babool and Manjishtha. The enzymes used are Amylase, cellulase, protease and pectinase. Dye uptake and fastness study has also been carried out. | | Keywords : | | - experimrntal and control groups,
