Microwave-assisted dyeing of wool fabrics with natural dyes as eco- friendly dyeing method: part I. Dyeing performance and fastness properties

Abstract

In this study different Mixtures of natural plants (Artemisia monosperma Del. and Phlomis floccose L.) in different proportions and different concentrations of the mixture are used to obtain new natural dyes and applying them to woolen fabric using microwave radiation and then studying the effect of extraction time and the pH of the dyeing bath on the strength of color and then studying the fastness of these dyes against light and Washing and perspiration
