Antimicrobial and mechanical activity of eupatorium dye on tencel and tencel-viscose fabrics

摘要

The Tencel and Tencel-Viscose fabrics were dyed with the selected Eupatorium natural dye with different types of mordants and analysed for their mechanical property and antimicrobial activity present which exhibited good results. The antimicrobial activity in the eupatorium dyed Tencel and Tencel-Viscose fabrics were found to control microorganisms and deterioration in textile material. Effective levels such as this technology have sustained textile for future.
