Abstract

Four (4) types of natural dyes (Turmeric, Pandan, Inai/Henna leaves and onion skin) were used to dye silk fabrics using two different methods, conventional and ultrasound. It was found that ultrasound method gave better colour reflectant compared to conventional method. In terms of colourfastness properties, all silk fabrics dyed with ultrasound method gave better properties in terms of colourfastness to washing, perspiration and rubbing. The usage of ultrasound also can reduce time and water consumption compared to conventional method and it is possible to be used in the industrial scale.
