Dyeing of Cotton Fabric with a Natural Dye Extracted from Areca Concinna Peel

In modern world, most of the countries tend to use the eco-friendly concept in many industries to minimize environmental pollution [1]. Synthetic dyes that are used in the textile industry offer more unfavourable and harmful effect to human beings such as carcinogenic, health-hazardous like skin allergies, toxic etc. And also, there is no systematic way to dispose of synthetic waste in the environment. So that it can be harmful to the ecosystem [2]. Therefore, the world tends to use natural dyes instead of synthetic dyes. Natural dyes have many advantages than synthetic dyes such as non-carcinogenic, eco-friendly, non-allergic, non-hazardous to human beings, etc. Natural dyes are mainly extracted from three different sources such as minerals, plants, and insects. Among these, plants are the most abundantly used natural dye source to extract dyes [3]. The main objective of this study was to extract natural dye from areca concinna peels and use extracted dye to dyeing the cotton fabrics.
