Abstract

 Bleached silk fabric was dyed with natural dye obtained from the flower of Opuntia ficus-indica. The colour strength and colour fastness properties of dyed silk fabric were determined and compared. From the results of fastness properties and colour strength of the dyed silk samples, Opuntia ficus-indica in simultaneous mordanting method with 3% mordant combination gives better results.
