TH22091U - A pre-mordant dyeing process using fresh mangosteen juice for textile and paper applications. - Google Patents

Abstract

The dyeing process using a pre-mordant made from fresh fruit juice of *Mangifera indica* (mangosteen) and *Citrus aurantium* (lime). This method is used in textiles and paper. The pre-mordant can be selected from: lye water, lime water, iron rust water, table salt, copper sulfate, alum, tamarind juice, and clean water. The steps involved are: preparing the mordant, preparing the dye solution from fresh *Mangifera indica* fruit juice, applying the pre-mordant, the final dyeing process using the fruit juice, and washing for textiles and paper.

1. The dyeing process using a pre-mordant from fresh fruit juices of Carambola (Mangifera indica) and Citrus aurantium (Citrus aurantifolia) for textile and paper applications consists of the following steps: A. Preparation of the mordant. The mordant can be selected from clean water, lye water, ash, lime water, iron rust water, salt water, copper sulfate water, alum water, and tamarind juice, either individually or in combination. - Alkaline ash water: Dissolve ash in clean water to achieve a concentration of 5-10% by volume. - Lime water: Dissolve red lime in clean water to achieve a concentration of 5-10% by volume. - Iron rust water: Soak 3-5 kg of iron material in 2,000 ml of clean water for 7 days, then stir until the iron rust water is well mixed. The iron rust water is then filtered through a mesh screen with 180-200 holes per inch 1-2 times before use. - Salt water: Dissolve table salt in clean water to a concentration of 5-10% by volume. - Copper sulfate water: Dissolve copper (II) sulfate in clean water to a concentration of 5-10% by volume. - Alum water: Dissolve alum in clean water to a concentration of 5-10% by volume. - Tamarind water: Dissolve 3-5 kg of tamarind pulp in 2,000 ml of clean water, then filter the tamarind water through a mesh screen with 180-200 holes per inch 1-2 times before use. - Clean water. This will provide the mordant for dyeing textile materials. B. Preparation of textile dyes from the fruit of the Carambola tree: Select fresh fruit of the Carambola tree... 10-20 kilograms of purple-colored Carambola (Carambola spp.) are washed twice with clean water, and the stems and leaves are removed. The juice is then extracted at room temperature and filtered through a mesh screen with 180-200 holes per inch 1-2 times. This yields 1,000-2,000 milliliters of clear, dark reddish-brown juice. The filtered juice is then poured into a sealed container and centrifuge at 1,400-1,500 rpm for 1-3 minutes to remove the gum or sap from the fruit. This process ensures even dyeing of the fabric or fibers, preventing uneven staining caused by gum or sap, before further textile dyeing. (C. Pre-dyeing with a mordant.) (Pre-Mordant) From the fresh fruit juice of *Mangifera indica* (mangosteen and lime), the process is as follows: Step 1: The pre-mordant dyeing process. Textile materials are immersed in the mordant in a dyeing container. Textile materials can be silk, wool, cotton, or paper, using a ratio of 1 part textile material to 50-60 parts mordant. The mixture is heated to 90-95 degrees Celsius and steeped for 30-60 minutes. During dyeing, it should be stirred to prevent uneven coloring. After the specified time, the silk, wool, cotton, or paper are removed from the dyeing pot. The dyed textile materials are then air-dried at room temperature. Step 2: Dyeing with the fresh fruit juice of *Mangifera indica* (mangosteen and lime). The textile materials are then... Textiles can be selected from silk, wool, cotton, or paper. Dip the textile in a dyeing container filled with fresh mango-lime juice at a ratio of 1 part textile to 50-60 parts mango-lime juice. Heat the dyeing container containing the mordant and textile to a temperature of 90-95 degrees Celsius for 30-60 minutes. Stir frequently during dyeing to prevent uneven coloring. After the specified time, remove the silk, wool, or cotton from the dyeing pot. For paper dyeing, filter the paper through a screen with 180-200 holes per inch 1-2 times. Rinse by soaking in clean water for 10 minutes at room temperature. This rinsing step is optional for paper or pulp dyeing. Step 3: Rinsing. Take the textile material dyed in step 2 using the weight ratio... For textile materials, use 10-20 grams of synthetic liquid soap per 1000 milliliters of water. Separate containers should be used for each material to prevent color bleeding, especially if dyed using different methods or mordants. Heat the dyeing containers containing the mordant and textile material to 90-95 degrees Celsius for 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently. After the specified time, rinse the textile or paper by soaking it in clean water for 10 minutes at room temperature, repeating this process three times. Finally, air dry at room temperature before use. 2. A dyeing process using a pre-mordant made from fresh fruit juices of *Mangifera indica* and *Citrus aurantium* (mangosteen and lime), for use in textiles and paper, as per claim 1, where textile materials can be selected from silk, wool, cotton, or paper. 3. A dyeing process using a pre-mordant made from fresh fruit juices of Carambola and Citrus aurantium for use in textiles and paper, as per claim 1, where the mordant can be selected from clean water, ash lye, lime water, iron rust water, salt water, copper sulfate water, alum water, or tamarind water, either individually or in combination. 4. The dyeing process using a pre-mordant made from fresh fruit juice of Carambola (Mangifera indica) and Citrus aurantium (Citrus aurantifolia) for use in textiles and paper, as per claim 1, where the dyeing process in steps 1 and 2 involves filtering the paper using a screen with 180-200 holes per inch 1-2 times, followed by soaking in clean water for 10 minutes at room temperature. 5. A dyeing process using a pre-mordant from the fresh fruit juice of *Mangifera indica* and *Citrus aurantifolia* for use in textiles and paper, as per any one of claims 1-4, where the paper dyeing process may or may not include a washing step.
