Abstract

Dyeing reed threads with natural dyes is safe for the environment. The ripe fruit of Karanda (Carissa caranda L.) can be used as a natural dye because it is rich in anthocyanin and provides different colors depending on the pH value. This research aimed to develop methods for dyeing reed threads with Karanda dye. The experiment was conducted as a completely randomized design with 3 replicates per treatment. In this study, 3 types of Karanda dye were used including dye 1: the dye without pH adjustment (CM-n), dye 2: the dye which its pH was adjusted with hydrochloric acid and dye 3: the dye which its pH was adjusted with sodium hydroxide. Their pH values were 3.39, 2.61, and 4.10, respectively and their colors were orange-red, red and purplish-red, respectively. In this study, there were 10 treatments including the undyed reed threads (Control), the reed threads dyed without using mordant with dye 1 (CM-n), dye 2 (CM-a) and dye 3 (CM-b); the reed threads dyed using alum as a mordant with dye 1 (M-n-nT), dye 2 (M-a-nT) and dye 3 (M-b-nT); and the reed threads dyed using alum and tannin as mordants with dye 1 (M-n), dye (M-a) and dye 3 (M-b). From the study, it was found that the dyed reed threads in all 9 treatments had brown-red color with different shades and had a* and L* values in the ranges of 22.20-32.80 and 27.95-30.30, respectively. The treatment M-a had the darkest brown-red color with a* and L* values of 24.10 and 25.77, respectively. After the dyed reed threads were kept for 60 days at room temperature, it was found that there was no significant change in a* and L* values for the treatments M-a and M-n. Moreover, the treatment M-a received the highest average satisfaction score of 4.33 from 40 volunteers. This study demonstrated that dyeing reed threads with hydrochloric acid pH adjusted Karanda dye in conjunction with using alum and tannin as mordants could be an alternative for dyeing reed threads with natural dyes.
