Dyeing Performance and Anti-Superbacterial Activity of Cotton Fabrics Dyed with Chamaecyparis obtusa

Na-Young Choi,
Bog-Im Park

Abstract: In hospitals, doctors’ and patients’ uniforms, as well as bedding and textiles, can be carriers of superbacteria. This study was conducted to test the anti-superbacterial activity of cotton fabrics dyed with extracts of Chamaecyparis obtusa (C. obtusa). The dye was extracted by boiling C. obtusa in water. The test cotton was mordant-dyed three times with the solution at a 1:17 dyeing bath ratio and at an 8.69% (o.w.f) dye concentration for 15 min at 40 °C. C. obtusa dyeing demonstrated a high dyeing affinity i… Show more
