Properties of Wool and Cotton Fabrics Dyed with Eucalyptus, Tannin and Flavonoids

Fabrics made from wool and cotton were dyed with eucalyptus leaf extract, rutin, querecetin and tannin dyes by the pad-dry technique. In this experiment, ferrous sulfate was used as a mordant. The dyeing properties were evaluated by measuring K/S values and CIELAB. The different fastness properties were also evaluated. The effect of dyes at different concentration levels with respect to their colour strength was also studied
