In the present study, natural dye from cob of purple corn and various metallic salts have been used to identify the proper dyeing condition for attaining high quality natural dyeing along with imparting UV protection property to the dyed silk fabric. Silk fabrics dyed with cob of purple corn extract showed a violetish-pink shade, while those dyed with alum light violetish-pink shade colour. Silk substrates dyed with CuSO4 and FeSO4 gave a yellowish grey and violetish-gray colour, respectively. The fastness properties ranged from fair to good. The ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) values of silk fabric dyed with and without metal mordants ranged between very good and excellent.

In the present study, natural dye from lac dye and various metallic salts have been used to identify the proper dyeing condition for attaining high quality natural dyeing along with imparting UV protection property to the dyed silk fabric. Silk fabrics dyed with lac extract showed a light pink shade, while those dyed with alum and stannous chloride pinkish-red colour. Silk substrates dyed with CuSO4gave a purple red colour, while those dyed with FeSO4had a reddish-gray colour. The fastness properties ranged from fair to good, while washing fastness was poor level. The ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) values of silk fabric dyed with and without metal mordants ranged between very good and excellent for the silk fabric.

Silk fabric was dyed with the colourant extracted from Laccifer Lacca Kerr. by using post-mordanting process and pad-dry technique. The effect of metal mordantats at different mordant concentration levels on their colour strength was also investigated. Silk fabrics dyed with Laccifer Lacca extract showed a light pink shade, while those dyed with alum and stannous chloride produces pinkish-red colour. Silk mordanted with CuSO4 gave a purple red colour, while those dyed with FeSO4 had a reddish-gray colour. The fastness properties ranged from fair to good, while washing fastness was poor level. The ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) values of silk fabric dyed with and without metal mordants ranged between good and excellent for dyed fabric.The results confirmed that natural dyes from Laccifer Lacca Kerr. extract have potential applications for silk fabric dyeing and producing ultraviolet (UV) protective silk fabric.

A natural dye extracted from purple corn cob was applied to a silk fabric using pre-mordanting method, under different conditions. It was observed that with an increase in the dye concentration, the ultraviolet (UV) protection factor (UPF) values ranged between good and very good for the silk fabric. In addition, a darker colour, such as that provided by a FeSO4and CuSO4mordant, gave better protection because of higher UV absorption. Silk fabrics dyed with purple corn cob extract showed a light violetish-pink shade, while those dyed with alum violetish-pink colour. Silk substrates dyed with CuSO4gave a green to greenish-pink colour, while those dyed with FeSO4had a light yellow to violetish-gray colour. The results confirmed that natural dyes from purple corn cob extract with metal mordants have potential applications in fabric dyeing and in producing UV-protective silk fabrics.

Silk fabric has been dyed with natural indigo (Indigofera tentoria) in absence and present ferrous sulfate mordant by using post-mordanting and pad dyeing processes. It was observed that with an increase in the dye concentration, the ultraviolet (UV) protection factor (UPF) values ranged between good and very good for the silk fabric. Silk fabrics dyed with natural indigo showed green shade. The level of fastness properties were ranged from good to very good. The results confirmed that natural dyes from natural indigo with ferrous sulfate have potential applications in fabric dyeing and in producing UV-protective silk fabrics.

Natural dye extracted from the mangrove bark was applied to a silk fabric by an exhaustion dyeing process. The dyeing was conducted with and without metallic salt mordants using pre-mordanting. It was observed that with an increase in the dye concentration, the ultraviolet (UV) protection factor (UPF) values ranged between good and excellent for the silk fabric. In addition, a darker color, such as that provided by a CuSO4 mordant, gave better protection because of higher UV absorption. The results confirmed that natural dyes from mangrove bark extract with metal mordants have potential applications in fabric dyeing and in producing UV-protective silk fabrics.

Background. The increasing emission of greenhouse gases has evoked the human being to save the ozone layer and minimize the risk of ultraviolet radiation (UVR). Various fabric structures have been explored to achieve desired ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) in various situations. Objective. In this study, the effect of various filament configurations like twisted, flat, intermingled, and textured in multifilament yarns on fabric in different combinations is assessed in order to engineer a fabric of better ultraviolet protection factor (UPF). Methods. In order to engineer a fabric having optimum UV protection with sufficient comfort level in multifilament woven fabrics, four different yarn configurations, intermingled, textured, twisted, and flat, were used to develop twelve different fabric samples. The most UV absorbing and most demanding fibre polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was considered in different filament configuration. Results. The combinations of intermingled warp with flat, intermingled, and textured weft provided excellent UVR protection comparatively at about 22.5 mg/cm2 fabric areal density. The presence of twisted yarn reduced the UV protection due to enhanced openness in fabric structure. Conclusion. The appropriate combination of warp and weft threads of different configuration should be selected judiciously in order to extract maximum UV protection and wear comfort attributes in multifilament woven PET fabrics.

In this study, 6 commercially available single jersey knit outerwears were collected from the market which claimed to have ultraviolet protection factor of 25. In vitro method with the use of spectrophotometer was used for evaluating their ultraviolet protection properties under different stretch conditions. Experimental results revealed that the stretch would greatly reduce the UV protection properties of knit outwears.

Ultraviolet aging of B.mori silk fabric was carried out under natural and artificial weathering conditions. A series of properties evaluations such as whiteness, mechanical property, ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy were applied to test on the structure and properties of B.mori silk fabric. The correlation between natural and artificial aging experiments was also investigated. The results showed that the whiteness index of B.mori silk surface declined with increasing aging time. The breaking strength decreased rapidly with the extension of aging time, and adopting the curve regression analysis method to analysis the correlation between two types of aging experiments. The accelerated factor obtained is about 12.33 between natural and artificial aging experiments. In addition, ultraviolet protection factor depicted the anti-ultraviolet performance enhanced. And FTIR spectra confirmed the intensity of characteristic peaks such as amide I and II, etc. decreasing in the aging process.

In this study, sulphur dye was used for dyeing 100% cotton knitted fabric and the effect of dye concentration and colour shade on ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) was discussed. The results indicated that the UVR absorbency of sulphur dye was not satisfactory. Generally speaking, the higher the dye concentration, the darker the shade of fabric. Nevertheless, it did not affect the UPF of fabric if the absorbency of the selected dye was ineffective.
