In this study, brown bollygum chips ( Litsea glutinosa ) called tallow laurel has been explored for silk dyeing using ecofriendly approaches. Extraction has been done in suitable medium and utilized onto fabric before and after microwave (MW) treatment up to 10 min. Response surface methodology was employed to observe the significant of selected dyeing parameters at which shade development with improved colorfastness was observed. It was found that 2 min radiation to both acidic extract of tallow laureal and silk fabric is the useful condition to get colorfast shade when employed before and after mordanting with iron salt and tannic acid solution as eco‐chemical agent, whereas with walnut bark and pine nut hulls extract as eco bio agents. The highest color strength value of 4.58 was observed using tannic acid as postchemical mordant for silk dyeing. The standard methods for fastness as per ISO to light, washing, and rubbing reveal that using selected shades made under ecofriendly cost time and energy effective conditions, stable colorfast hues were rated good with the value of 4/5.

Solutions were prepared to measure the exhaustion% (E), fixation% (F) and reactivity% (R) of those dyes in cotton and ramie fabric dyeing using another exhaust method that comprises exhaustion, fixation (addition of alkali) and wash-off (treating with soaping agent) stages sequentially. Dye compatibility, colour strength (K/S), colour uniformity and colour fastness to washing and rubbing were assessed from the dyed cotton and ramie samples. All of these values were higher while dyeing cotton fabric samples. The average proportion of dye (%) of yellow, red and blue were 35.68%, 32.95% and 31.36% respectively for dyed ramie fabrics and in case of dyed cotton fabrics, the average proportion of dye (%) of yellow, red and blue were 41.45%, 33.22% and 25.33% respectively. Average K/S values of ramie and cotton were found 5.736 and 6.674 respectively and the colour uniformity was better for dyed cotton fabrics. Both cotton and ramie fabrics showed good to excellent results in terms of colour fastness to washing and rubbing.

At first, scoured and bleached cotton fabric is treated with chitosan, followed by encapsulation of lavender essential oil (LEO) with the addition of Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam. (jackfruit) latex gum as a binder. For the encapsulation and optimization of LEO and jackfruit latex gum (JLG) performance, four variations of these material’s quantity were utilized. Among all the studied samples, we found that efficiently inducing development inhibition of gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria culture. Among all, the chitosan-treated fabric in addition to LEO and JLG sample named TG-5 (refers to LEO of 3 mL and JLG of 5 mL) showed the most impactful bacteria reduction. It demonstrates the most effective antibacterial reduction of 92.5% and 56.8% for E. coli and S. aureus bacterium cultures, respectively. The Field Emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) illustrates and validates the morphology and addition of the prepared samples, while Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) is subjected to identify the chemical bonding and chemical compounds of the functionalized materials. Therefore, the new combination of lavender oil and latex gum of jackfruit as an antimicrobial finishing agent can be the replacement of synthetic chemicals for cotton fabric functionalization in medical textiles.}, journal={Surface Innovations}, publisher={Emerald}, author={Toki, Gazi Farhan Ishraque and Alave, Rezaul Karim Khan and Duti, Syeda Fariha Jannat and Sharif, Nawaz and Md. and Mia, Rony and Dutta, Sudipto and Repon, Reazuddin and Md. and Al-Qahtani, Wahidah H. and et al.}, year={2024}, month={Sep}, pages={1–10} }

Betacyanins are naturally sourced pigments of red‐violet color that have the propensity to be fixed to mordanted substrates with reasonable permanency. In this study, the betacyanins sourced from beetroot ( Beta vulgaris ) were used to dye pre‐mordanted silk fabrics employing ultrasonication. In addition, a comparative analysis of the effects of five different mordants such as orange‐peel extracts, lemon peel extracts, tannic acid, ferrous sulfate, and alum on the color strength and fastness of beetroot‐dyed silk fabrics was presented in this research. For the characterization of the extracted dye, undyed, dyed, and mordanted silk fabric, infrared spectroscopy was performed. To observe the interaction of extracted dye and silk fabric, scanning electron microscopy was also accomplished. The outcomes of the characterization validated the successful extraction of dyes from beetroot and dyeing silk fabric with it. The values of color intensity (K/S), CIE L* a* b*, and CIE L* c* h* were measured using a reflectance spectrophotometer. At the same time, dry and wet rubbing and lightfastness ratings of dyed silk fabrics were determined according to the ISO standards. When 5% (o.w.f.) ferrous sulfate was used in pre‐mordanting, the ratings of colorfastness to wash, rub, and light ranged from 4 to 4/5, and the K/S value of the final sample was 4.88, which is higher than the K/S values of any other dyed samples. In contrast, the performance of 5% (o.w.f.) lemon peel extracts as a mordant was remarkably higher than orange peel extracts and even better than alum and tannic acid to some extent. The beetroot‐dyed silk fabric pre‐mordanted with 5% lemon peel exhibited a K/S value of 4.32, and the overall colorfastness rating ranged from 3/4 to 4/5. In conclusion, beetroot extracts hold the promise of being utilized as a sustainable replacement for environmentally harmful synthetic dyestuff in silk dyeing. Furthermore, in silk dyeing with beetroot extract, lemon peel extract is a potent alternative to ferrous sulfate as a mordant.}, journal={Energy Science & Engineering}, author={Mia, Rony and Uddin, Tafsir and Mofasser, A.

As concerns grow over the environmental impact of synthetic dyes and their detrimental disposal in water bodies, the search for eco-friendly alternatives becomes imperative to revolutionize the textile industry. Microwave-assisted extraction of the colorant from clove powder is explored as an efficient and sustainable method, minimizing solvent usage and energy consumption compared to conventional techniques. To enhance colorfastness properties while eliminating the need for toxic mordants, green alternatives such as Al, Fe, and tannic acid, combined with plant phenolics from red sumac, pomegranate rind, and weld, are employed. According to the analysis of CCD, the higher color strength value 18.1653 was achieved using pH = 3, time = 50 min, temperature = 70 °C, and salt concentration = 1.5 g/100 mL. The optimized dyeing conditions also showed a maximum level of colorfastness properties of 5 for light, 5 for wash, 5 for dry rubbing, and 4 for wet rubbing. The findings from Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy analyses provide valuable insights into the chemical and morphological changes induced by microwave treatment and dyeing with clove extract. The results affirm the presence of eugenol as a potential active molecule responsible for the captivating color of clove flower buds, validating its suitability as a natural dye source for wool. This study highlights the promising potential of microwave-assisted extraction and plant-based biomolecules as innovative and environmentally friendly approaches in natural dyeing, paving the way for a more sustainable future in the textile industry.

In this study, an effort was undertaken to see if Rheum emodi (rhubarb) extract might be used as a natural dye for wool dyeing for the replacement of synthetic dyes. The dyeing of wool fabric was carried out using microwave (MW) ray treatment. By combining several mordants, a stunning color palette of shades of varying hues and tones was created. Comparative evaluation of the effects of various chemical mordants (aluminum salt, iron salt, tannic acid and cream of tartar) and bio-mordants (pomegranate extract and pine nut hull extract) on the characteristics of dyed wool samples was carried out to choose the best mordant for each application. It was found that MW-treated wool fabric using a bio-mordant showed a higher colorfastness value of 4/5 to 5 and a color strength value of approximately 10–20 than using metallic mordant. Scanning electron microscopy photographs and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analyses revealed the difference between irradiated and unirradiated wool fabrics. The employment of MW rays and bio-mordants in the natural coloring of wool fabric is encouraged due to their biocompatibility and non-toxicity when combined with MW treatment of wool fabric, as well as their high colorfastness and color strength performance.

Besides that, blended knit fabric, prepared from the blended yarn as well as using different types of yarn is also very popular to the modern customer. That's why, finding of new resource of raw material for fashionable knit fabric preparation is promising in the recent decade. Okra fiber is a biodegradable long staple bast fiber that can be obtained from abundant natural fiber sources after being extracted from lady's finger plants. It has high cellulosic content, worthy strength and modulus, and better thermal properties, making it a potential candidate as a raw material for the creation of stylish knit fabrics. Because of its rigidity and lack of flexibility, okra fiber cannot be spun into yarn on its own. In the current study, 1 × 1 rib fabric prepared from 30 Tex polyester/okra (PO) blended yarn of 80/20 and 85/15 blend ratio. For better comparison corresponding polyester/flax traditionally known as polyester/linen (PL) blended 1 × 1 rib fabric was also prepared. Current study found that, fabric characteristics, such as fabric weight, fabric dimension, air permeability, and bursting strength of PO blended fabric was compatible with PL blended fabric, with the exception of the fabric's hand feel characteristics. The overall findings revealed that the knit fabric qualities of PO mixed fabric were satisfactory. Due to the affordability and accessibility of okra fiber, the PO blended fabrics are very promising, sustainable and may be a viable choice to address the actual need for blended fabrics in the textile knitting industries.}, journal={Results in Engineering}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Islam, Md.

This study focused on the extraction of dyes from the leaf of Dillenia indica (D. indica) tree using an ultrasonic extraction technique and applied on the organic cotton fabrics. The ultrasonic method was used for both extractions of D. indica dyes and dyeing of organic cotton fabrics. Here, the amount of D. indica powder used were 5% and 6.67% for producing light and dark shade, respectively. The investigation of the color fastness to washing, rubbing, and light for the dyed organic cotton fabrics indicated an excellent rating. The spectrophotometric analysis revealed the L* (lightness or darkness), a* (redness or greenness), b* (yellowness or blueness), C* (chroma), h* (hue), R% (reflectance), and K/S (color strength) values, which accurately represented the shade of the dyed organic cotton fabric. To understand the interaction between D. indica dye and organic cotton fabrics, different characterization including, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were performed. The characterization outcomes confirmed the successful deposition of D. indica dyes on the organic cotton fabrics. The other comparable testing results such as bursting strength, air permeability, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of dyed and undyed organic cotton fabrics were in the acceptable range. One of the important findings of this research was no chemicals were utilized during the extraction and dyeing of organic cotton fabrics. This process can be referred to as completely chemical-free and advantageous for the environment because no chemicals were needed during extraction or dyeing. Therefore, the natural dye extracted from D. indica is extremely promising and could be a viable option for the sustainable dyeing of cotton fabrics in the textile dyeing industry.}, number={8}, journal={Heliyon}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Banna, Burhan Uddin and Mia, Rony and Hasan, Md.

The synthesis parameters (effect of CT extract concentration, reaction temperature, time, and pH) were thoroughly examined via a one‐variable‐at‐a‐time (OVAT) method to identify an optimization condition. The characterization of AgNPs produced at as‐obtained optimum condition found that the nanoparticles are primarily spherical/oval shape, nanometer size (1.98±0.57 nm), very crystalline (d‐ spacing =0.236 nm), significantly stabilized (zeta potential=−22.1 mV). The characterizations also indicated that the AgNPs were produced by the redox reaction between plant phytochemicals and metal cations and stabilized via encapsulation of plant phytochemicals. The bacterial resistivity AgNPs was monitored by the agar disk diffusion test and found to be highly effective towards both Staphylococcus aureus (+ev) and Escherichia coli (−ev) bacteria. Moreover, the synthesized AgNPs displayed an innate catalytic reduction of azo dyes such as acid red 1 (AR1) and acid blue 29 (AB29).

Due to the fabric defects, the sigma level of knit fabric production is between 3 to 3.5. This study aims to increase the sigma level of knit fabric productions. Here, we implement a six sigma strategy in the textile knitting industry. The Six Sigma methodology is applied step by step on the knitting fabric production floor. The DMAIC approach is clearly stated through the phases of defining, measurement, analysis, improvement and control. The types and reasons for different fabric defects are identified by using the cause and effect diagram. The Pareto chart showed that the highest percentages (51%) of defects are related to yarn quality. In the improvement phase, the defects are eliminated by utilizing the Six Sigma methodology. Then, the sigma level of our knit fabric production went to 4. The risk priority number was calculated and suggestions for preventive actions were analysed in the control phase. Implementing the six sigma methodology on the knitting production floor also reduces the cost of production. As a result, this real time study on the knitting production floor has proved to be an economically sustainable production of knit fabric.}, journal={Textile & Leather Review}, publisher={idd3}, author={Ahmed, Taosif and Toki, Gazi Farhan Ishraque and Mia, Rony and Li, Jinping and Islam, Syed Rashedul and Rishad, Mohammad Mahin Alam}, year={2022}, month={Jun}, pages={223–239} }

This research focuses on extracting natural dyes from Butea monosperma plants and on developing sustainable dyeing methods for silk fabric. Natural colorants were extracted using an aqueous and an acidic extraction procedure, and silk fabrics were dyed with the extracts using mordanting with a variety of metal mordants and bio-mordants. The treatment of fabric and extracts was carried out using microwave (MW) irradiation. It was found that the bio-mordants have shown higher color strength than metallic mordant. It was also observed that the acacia and pine nut hull at 80°C and before dyeing pomegranate extract at 80°C and after dyeing of silk fabric at 40°C using bio-mordants gave higher color strength than metallic mordants. For comparative analysis, aluminum (Al) salt at 40°C, iron (Fe) salt at 60°C and tannic acid at 80°C gave acceptable results. The colorfastness characteristics were also found good to excellent. The bio-mordants not only provide the higher color strength and fastness properties, but these extracts have also shown an environmental friendly approaches. Scanning electron microscopy image and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analyses revealed the difference between irradiated and unirradiated silk fabrics.

The aim of the current study is to use a sustainable heating technique for the isolation of colorant from plant sources and to use eco-friendly anchors to improve the fastness of dyed fabrics with new shades. The current study used microwave radiation to isolate natural colorants from saffron (Crocus sativus) and safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) petals for polyamide (nylon) fabric dyeing. For this purpose, acidic extract and fabric were exposed to MW treatment for up to 6 min and employed at various conditions. To make the dyeing process sustainable, bio-mordants have been employed and compared with synthetic mordants. It has been found that 6 min is the optimal radiation time for the isolation of colorant to get good results onto irradiated polyamide (nylon) fabric when employed at 65 °C for 45 min containing 1 g/100 mL of table salt for saffron and 3 g/100 mL of table salt for safflower dyeing. For improving color strength and giving an acceptable rating of fastness, 7% of turmeric as a pre-bio mordant and 7% pomegranate as a post-mordant has given high results using saffron extract. Similarly, with safflower extract, 5% of turmeric as a pre-mordant and 5% of turmeric extracts as a post-mordant have given high results as compared to chemical mordants used. It is concluded that microwave treatment has a high potential for investigating the coloring efficacy of crocin-containing saffron petals and safflower petals as carthamin as a yellow natural dye for bio-mordanted polyamide fabrics.

Additionally, concerns over CO2 emissions and potential increases in fuel prices have boosted technical efforts to make hybrid and electric vehicles more accessible to the public. Rechargeable batteries are undoubtedly a key player in this regard, especially lithium ion batteries (LIBs), which have high power capacity, a fast charge/discharge rate, and good cycle stability, while their further energy density improvement has been severely limited, because of the relatively low theoretical capacity of the graphite anode material which is mostly used. Among various high-capacity anode candidates, tin (II) sulfide (SnS2) has been attracted remarkable attention for high-energy LIBs due to its enormous resource and simplicity of synthesis, in addition to its high theoretical capacity. However, SnS2 has poor intrinsic conductivity, a big volume transition, and a low initial Coulombic efficiency, resulting in a short lifespan. SnS2/carbon composites have been considered to be a most promising approach to addressing the abovementioned issues. Therefore, this review summarizes the current progress in the synthesis of SnS2/carbon anode materials and their Li-ion storage properties, with special attention to the developments in Li-based technology, attributed to its immense current importance and promising prospects.

Later on, the yarn pull-out installation was created and the yarn (single and multiple) pullout tests were performed on both plain and resin impregnated structures to find the differentiation. The result of the investigation shows high-density resin-impregnated fabric indicates a higher pull-out force contrasted with those of low-resin impregnated fabric structure. Fabric displacement at max. Force during multiple-end pull-out indicated a higher fabric displacement (mm) rate contrasted with that of the single pull-out. Optical microscopic examination is done to observe the progressions on pulled out regions. During our observation, no implication variety was found in the surface at a specified loading rate except adjacent yarn displacement grounded on the amount of yarn pulled out. Utilization of resin impregnation builds the commitment of more yarns as the slippage of yarns is limited thus leads to the higher energy required rate. Finally, by ballistic perforated impact parameters, it is affirmed that expanding inter-yarn friction can improve ballistic performance of fabrics. Ultimately, it is concluded in the way that these new ballistic resin-impregnated structures come up with higher inter yarn friction, low expense, less weight, considerable stiffness of the fabric and the reliable ballistic performance on the finished result.}, number={8}, journal={The Journal of The Textile Institute}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Mia, Rony and Sultana, Suraiya and Bhuiyan, Md.

Natural dyes have attracted more attention to the industry due to exhibiting better biodegradability and more compatibility with the environment. Characteristic colours that are gathered from common assets can be categorized as either plant, creature, mineral, or microbial colours and can be used for colouring a wide range of regular filaments. Late examination shows that it can likewise be utilized to colour a portion of the manufactured filaments too. Normal colours are not just utilized in the shading of material filaments, they are also utilized for food, prescriptions, handiwork articles, and leather preparing. Extraction and purification play a vital role in the processing of natural dyes. There are different types of extraction process currently available for these natural dyes, such as solvent extraction, aqueous extraction, enzymatic extraction and fermentation, extraction with microwave or ultrasonic energy, supercritical fluid extraction, and alkaline or acid extraction. All these extraction processes have their own advantages as well as some drawbacks depending on the parameters that need to be maintained during the extraction process. Appropriate extraction can be beneficial for specific types of such dyes. In this paper, the classification, characteristics, extraction methods, and the application of natural dyes are introduced in an organized manner.}, number={4}, journal={Textile & Leather Review}, publisher={idd3}, author={Salauddin Sk, Md. and Mia, Rony and Haque, Md.
