  Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine which of the dye plants are suitable for dyeing PET fibers. Sources of natural dyes are defined, with which satisfactory coloration in red, yellow, and blue hues is achieved on PET fibers, in terms of both color yield and fastness values. A comparison of 30 different plant sources of dyes was carried out, and the obtained results confirmed turmeric as the best natural dye for achieving yellow coloring, madder for red coloring, indigo for blue coloring, henna for green and catechu for brown coloring on PET fibers. It can be said that washing and rubbing fastness values of dyed samples were fairly good. However, the problem in natural dyeing of PET is the low light fastness values. Beyond the dyeings in which the extracts obtained from the plants were used as dyeing liquor, dyes in powder form were produced from selected plants and single and combination dyeings were also carried out with dyes in powder form.
