Abstract
AbstractThe research aimed to dye silk satin textiles with a plant-derived colorant in the presence of additives of natural origins, such as chitosan and shellac, to investigate whether they can dye silk textiles with satisfactory results. In this study, a series of mechanical properties (Young modulus, elongation at break, and tensile strength), and colorfastness following exposure to UVC irradiation and 6 months of storage of dyed silk textiles samples were tested. Colorimetric measurements and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images were performed and FTIR spectra were registered. Results indicated that the plant-derived colorant used in this research had the potential to dye silk satin textiles with satisfactory results. Colorant with the addition of chitosan and shellac dyed silk textiles more intensely, shellac covering ensured their color stability following UVC irradiation and during storage while the addition of chitosan did not particularly affect the color stability under the influence of UVC irradiation. However, pre-treatment with low molecular weight chitosan improves colorfastness during storage. Both additives influenced the mechanical properties of dyed silk textiles.
