Abstract

Present study was conducted with extracted natural dye from Acacia catechu. Cutch dye was used for dyeing on mordanted wool with eco-friendly mixed mordants (Iron and Tin). By using different permutations and combinations of mordants with cutch forty eight shades were developed. Fastness properties (light, wash and rub/crocking) were studied on these samples. The structural morphology of woollen yarn was evaluated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
