  Abstract

This study focusses on the extraction of natural colorants from leaves of Murraya exotica using Soxhlet extraction method under different operating conditions. The dyeing potential of the colorants obtained from the leaves was evaluated by coloring cotton fabric at different dyeing conditions using response surface methodology (RSM). The maximum dye extraction was observed in 90 min using 1:10 M: L ratio under alkaline conditions using 0.45 M NaOH solution. Data outcomes showed that at optimum dyeing conditions of temperature (62.61 °C), time (75.5 min) and salt (67.89 g/L); highest color buildup of dyed samples was obtained representing 2.21% K/S values. Different metal salts were applied as mordant to fix the dye on the cotton fabric and excellent color buildup was obtained when copper II sulfate was used as co-mordant. Spectra flash spectrophotometer was used to determine the color strength and colorimetric data of the dyed cotton fabric. Furthermore, quality assurance tests such as light fastness, rubbing fastness, washing fastness etc. were conducted which suggested the Marwa plant leaves as a good natural colorant.
