  Abstract

The sustainable dyeing using root of Rumex japonicus Houttuyn (RJH) on silk has been accomplished without using a mordant. After dyeing the scoured silk, the sugar content and turbidity, the color characteristics, antioxidant property by radical scavenging assay, the antibacterial activities by bacteria reduction rate, the ultraviolet (UV) protection, and the heavy metal adsorption were analyzed. As a result, the sugar content of the RJH solution increased, and the turbidity decreased after dyeing. The color of dyed silk with RJH showed high b* (yellowness) values, and the color fastness showed moderate grades 3. The antioxidant and antibacterial activities showed 89% or more and 96.8% reduction rate in Staphylococcus aureus, respectively. In addition, UV protection was also excellent at 96.4%. In particular, the content of residual heavy metal ion decreased from 6.796 mg/L to 0.655 mg/L, indicating excellent heavy metal adsorption.
