Abstract

Dyeing with natural dyes and obtaining different shades from them has been of interest to Iranians since ancient times. Among the defects of natural dyes is their limited shades and fastness. To solve these defects, researchers have suggested the use of new natural dyes as well as changing the dyeing materials and conditions. In this research, cinnamon bark as a new natural dye has been used for dyeing wool fibers. The effect of dyeing parameters such as amount of colorant, mordant type, acid type and dyeing time on the shade and the intensity in wool fibers has been investigated. The color strength and other color parameters of the dyed samples were measured using reflective spectrophotometer. Also, the color fastness against washing and light was evaluated according to standard methods. The results indicate that increasing the concentration of colorant (up to 80% owf) and dyeing time (up to 72 hours) were the influencing parameters on increasing the color strength of the dyed samples. The use of iron and copper metal salts as mordant, in addition to improving the wash (up to 4-5 in gray scale) and light fastness (up to 5 in blue scale) of dyed samples, can increase the color strength of these samples to create a range of gray and brown shades.
