| Abstract: | Silk skeins were dyed with Acalypha wilkesiana leaves extract using different concentrations of various mordants and then tested for fastness properties. Mordanting was done before, during and after dyeing. Irrespective of mordanting methods, the samples treated with potash alum showed increase in colour when subjected to sunlight test and those treated with potassium dichromate, copper sulphate and ferrous sulphate showed excellent to good fastness properties. |
