Abstract

The objective of this research paper is to establish a suitable reactive dyeing process for banana fiber and comparison between dyeing behaviors of banana fibers with cotton fibers. Ambon (Cavendish type) banana variety was selected for this research study. Data accumulation is done by quantitative research methodology and experimental research strategies for this investigation; 5% enzyme and 6% H2O2-, 2% Na2SiO3-, and 3% NaOH-treated banana fibers were dyed with reactive dye. Banana fibers were dyed with three standard colors (red, blue, and yellow) each with four different concentrations (0.25, 1%, 4%, and 6%) of reactive dye. Testing was conducted to assess the color properties between pretreated banana fiber, dyed banana fiber, and cotton fiber. Color measurement was performed by using a Datacolour 600 spectrophotometers. The ΔE* values were used to determine the degree of color deterioration. Results showed that pretreated fibers become brighter (whiteness) than the raw banana ...

Cotton Fabric Dyeing with Natural Colorants Extracted from Banana Peel
Yasser Abdelhady

Egyptian Journal of Agricultural Research, 2009

This Work aimed to use pigments extracted from banana peel as natural waste source to dye some Egyptian cotton fabrics. Alkaline extracted solution using 0.1% NaOH was analyzed by high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC), analysis technique. The alkaline solution was applied to the premordated bleached and mercerized cotton fabrics made from Giza 89 and Giza 83 cotton varieties. Ferric chloride, copper sulphate and potassium dichromate were used as mordents. The factors affecting the fixation of the extracted dye with cellulose was studied. The treated and untreated fabrics samples ware tested for their mechanical properties expressed as tensile strength (g/tex) and elongation %. Dyeing performance in terms of color parameters (K/S, L*, a*, b* and ΔE), and fastness properties (wash, perspiration, and light fastness) were studied. The samples show high tensile strength, high color strength, and high fastness properties. These results are very important for industrial application with the production of a natural dye as an inexpensive source from banana peel as a by product. Another objective is to increase the production of eco-textile garments with a good price for the Egyptian customers .

Process Optimization For Bleaching of Banana Fibers
Anjali Karolia

International journal of scientific research, 2016

Banana is the second most important food crop grown in India. Every year around a billion tonnes of banana plant stems are thrown on roadside after harvesting of the fruit. Banana fibers are extracted from this roadside thrown biomass using Raspador machine. Being lignocellulosic in nature, banana fibers have excellent strength but are little brittle. Processing can improve certain properties of any textile fiber. Banana fibers are lustrous fiber, ranging from creamy to off-white in colour. The present study focusedon optimization of bleaching recipe for banana fibers. Sodium hypochlorite, Hydrogen peroxide, and a combination of the two bleacheswere studied by varying time, temperature, and concentration. Based on the testing results of tensile strength, whiteness index, and weight loss, bleaching parameters were optimized. The best results were obtained by the combination of hypochlorite and peroxide bleach.

Eco-Friendly Pretreatment of Cotton Fabric With Banana Ash and Dyeing Using Banana Sap
European Scientific Journal ESJ

The aim of this study is to evaluate environment supportive pretreatment and dyeing process. In this project, pretreatment of cotton fabric was done by using banana ash. Also, dyeing was carried out with banana sap along with different mordants that are eco-friendly and cost saving. Here, all the experiments were carried out on woven (plain) fabric of 141 GSM. Firstly, cotton fabric was scoured by means of banana root's ash (pH-10.2). It was then dyed with banana sap (pH-5.4). This banana ash scoured cotton fabric was compared with conventionally scoured cotton fabric through weight loss % and absorbency test. In addition, fastness properties and performance of dyeing were measured through CIE L*C*h, K/S value, and different color fastness tests. Banana ash scoured and dyed with banana sap, using mordant (horitoky), provided the best dyeing performance and color fastness to wash, rubbing, and perspiration than the others.

Effect of chemical treatments on physico-chemical properties of fibres from banana fruit and bunch stems
Nazire YILMAZ

2017

Fibres have been extracted from fruit and bunch stems of banana plant by water retting and evaluated in terms of their performance characteristics. Banana bunch stem fibres have been found to be superior in terms of fineness, initial modulus and breaking strength, whereas elongation ratio shows an inverse trend. Thus, they have been further treated by bleaching and alkalization. Among the treated fibres, the bleached fibres show the highest initial modulus, breaking tenacity, and the lowest elongation. Alkalization results in increased breaking elongation and decreased initial modulus, whiteness and water absorption. The bunch stem fibres present higher water absorptive capacity and lower whiteness compared to that of fruit stem fibres. The characteristics of these unconventional fibres have been found to be comparable to natural fibres traditionally used in textiles. The ranges for properties of the studied banana fruit and bunch stem fibres in general can be given as: linear densi...

Colorimetric study of natural dye from Beta vulgaris Peels and Pomace on cellulosic substrate
Vincent Rotich, Jackson Cherutoi

Advances in Phytochemistry, Textile and Renewable Energy Research for Industrial Growth, 2022

Synthetic dyes are associated with carcinogenic, toxic, and allergic effects on humans and our environment. Natural dyes have attracted attention globally because of their non-hazardous nature. Beta vulgaris (Beetroot) plant wastes such as peels and pomaces are an unexploited resource. The present study involved solvent extraction of natural dye from B. vulgaris peels and pomace, and its application on cellulosic fabrics alongside natural mordants (alum and tannic acid) in comparison to metallic mordants (potassium dichromate, ferrous sulfate, and copper sulfate) to improve the colour fastness of the cotton substrate and establish colour strength equivalence (ceq) relating to synthetic Reactive Orange HER. In mordanting, the three methods (premordanting, simultaneous, and post-mordanting) were employed. Response surface methodology and central composite design were used to optimize extraction and dyeing conditions, namely temperature, M:L ratio, time, and pH. The optimized extraction conditions were M:L ratio of 1:20 and time of 11 hours. This resulted in a moderate (40%) yield of natural dye from the plant, proving to be better than conventional methods. Optimized dyeing resulted in temperature 55 C, time 75 minutes, and pH 6. The CIE L*, a*, b*, C*, and h • values were studied by standard methods. The dyed fabrics exhibited very good to excellent colour fastness test (light, washing, rubbing, and perspiration fastness) in the range of 4-5 in gray scale. These findings reveal that B. vulgaris peels and pomace can be potential alternatives to synthetic dyes in the colouration of cotton fabrics.

Wahidin Nuriana

Agroindustrial Technology Journal

The purpose of this study was to obtain a natural textile dye taken from the sap from the banana tree part. To obtain the yield yield of dyes and the intensity of the sap collection is done by maceration extraction process. The part of the banana tree taken by the sap is the stem, stem and fruit stalk. This research was conducted with the sorting stage, namely thinly slicing stems, midribs and fruit stalks. The results of sorting are dried in the sun for 5 days in the sun then crushed until smooth with a size of 60-80 mesh. The powder was extracted by maceration by immersing each stem, stem and fruit stalk with soaking media: aquades, methanol, ethanol and ethyl acetate for 5 days with manual stirring. The filtrate is distilled so that it gets concentrated liquid and in the oven to become a dye powder. In the powder, yield and color testing are done using a spectrophotometer UV Vis. The most optimal yield produced is on the banana fronds with methanol media is 22.8248%.. The optimal color intensity was obtained on banana stalks using methanol maceration medium and methanol dilution is 0.505.

Dyeing Behaviour Assessment of Fruit Pulp Extract as a Source of Textile Dye
Y.C. Tripathi

Asian Dyer, 2020

The study was aimed to explore the possibilities for the utilization of water extract of fruits of Curry leaf tree as a source of natural dye for textile finishing. Fruit pulp of curry tree was at first hydrodistilled using Clevenger type apparatus to isolate essential oil. The left over water extract was used as dye for dyeing silk and wool fabrics. Solid content of water extract was determined in order to maintain the uniform dye concentration throughout the experiments which was recorded as 7.25% on moisture free basis. Silk and wool fabrics were dyed using common mordants like alum, copper sulphate, potassium dichromate, iron salts and tin salts with post mordnating technique. The material to liquor ratio (M:L) for dyeing of silk and wool fabrics was kept at 1:30, dye concentration 0.4% at temperature 95-980C and duration of dyeing silk and wool was 45 min. Mordanting was carried out using mordant solutions (0.5%) in distilled water. All the dyed and mordanted silk and wool samples were tested for their L*, a*, b*, C*, ho and K/S values. The outcome of the research work has led to the development of shades on silk and wool fabrics using curry tree fruit extract which is strikingly significant for the natural dyes sector.

Investigation of The Dyeability Behavior of Banana Fibers With Natural Dye Extract Obtained From Turmeric Plants
Otto Samuel

MARMARA UNIVERSITY JOURNAL OF SCIENCE, 2015

In this study, the fibers produced from the banana plants provided from Antalya region were treated with a variety of mordants, and then the fibers were dyed with the natural dye extracted from turmeric plant (Curcuma longa) via ultrasonic and conventional method. Finally, the dye uptake and fastness properties of samples were investigated. The recent studies have demonstrated that the synthetic dyes can be non-biodegradable, allergenic, cytotoxic and partially carcinogenic. Recently demand for eco-friendly, non-carcinogenic and non-toxic products have been gradually increased. Compared to the synthetic dyes, the natural dyes are advantageous in the way of been biodegradable and non-toxic and not causing health problems, produced under temperate conditions. These properties of natural dyes lately result in increasing their usage. Today utilization of many plant extracts as natural dyes has been investigated such as turmeric plant.
