Using water and methanol, the colorant components were extracted from the heartwood of amor cork tree which is known as the oldest natural yellow dye. The dyeabilities of the colorant on cotton and the fastness of cotton fabrics dyed with amur cork tree extracts were investigated. According to the dye uptake and mordant concentration, antibacterial activities and deodorization properties of dyed fabrics were also investigated. As a results, K/S values of dyed fabrics were increased with concentrations of mordants and amur cork tree extracts. Washing fastness of dyed fabrics was very low, light fastness was fair and the other fastness were good. Deodorization rates of dyed fabrics were increased in proportion to concentrations of amur cork tree extracts. The reduction rates of bacteria measured by Bioassay tests were also increased in proportion to concentrations of mordants and amur cork tree extracts.

The dyeing of cotton fabric with Forsythia koreana NAKAI was investigated. The colorant was extracted with methanol under various concentrations of dyestuffs at $40^\circ{C}$ and $76^\circ{C}$. UV-VIS spectrum was obtained to find the maximum wavelength of colorant. Cotton fabrics were dyed at different temperatures, mordants, in pre and post mordanting methods. The maximum wavelength of spectrum were 390nm, 410nm, 440nm. The highest K/S value was showed at 100% dye concentration, extracted at $76^\circ{C}$ and dyed at $80^\circ{C}$. The mordant effect was not good in the K/S values. The light fastness was increased at Fe-pre mordant and Cr, Fe-post mordant.

The natural dyeing of silk fabric with Purple-Fleshed Sweet Potato (PSP) was investigated. The colorant was extracted with distilled water, and the color difference (${\Delta}E^*$) was increased with increasing the amount of PSP in extraction. The proper temperature and time for the extracting of colorant with PSP were $60^{\circ}C$ and 60 minutes. The optimum temperature, time and pH for the dyeing of silk with extracted PSP were $60^{\circ}C$, 60 minutes and pH 4 respectively. In various mordanted methods, the color difference values of post-mordanted silk fabric were higher than those of pre- and simultaneous-mordanted method. And the wide range of colors( GY, Y, YR, R, RP) were obtained according to various mordants, mordanting methods and mordant concentrations. Light colorfastness of the mordanted silk fabric was improved. Laundering colorfastness, dry cleaning colorfastness and perspiration colorfastness were shown to be good.

This study examined the dyeability, color fastness and functionality of cotton fabrics dyed with residual parts of cultivated Pteridium aquilinum. UV-Vis absorption spectrum, TLC and FT-IR spectra analysis showed that colorants of Pteridium aquilinum are a mixture of pyrogallol tannin and catechol tannin. Optimum dyeing conditions was confirmed colorant concentration of 500% at $100^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes. Color fastness followed to washing, rubbing, perspiration and light as 4-5, 5, 4-5(acidic), 3-4(alkaline) and 2, respectively. Deodorization rates of ammonia($NH_3$) and acetic acid ($CH_3COOH$) were analyzed 88.8% and 78.0%. UV protection rate was 94.2% of UV-A and 96.8% of UV-B. UV protection factor(UPF) was 27. Therefore residual parts of cultivated Pteridium aquilinum could be used for a new functional colorant.

A natural colorant was extracted from Clove using methanol. The dyeabilities and fastness of silk fabrics dyed with Clove extract were investigated. The results obtained were as follows; 1. The colorant extracted with methanol was higher in concentration than that with boiling water and was represented high reproducibility. 2. The optimum dyeing temperature and dyeing time were 6$0^{\circ}C$ and 60min, respectively. 3. The color depths were observed to be decreased as follows; pre-mordant > after-mordant repeat dyeing > after-mordant > simultaneous-mordant 4. Clove extract dyed brownish black on the Fe-mordanted silk. In case of the other mordants, silk fabrics dyed yellow. 5. The dyed silks had poor light-fastness but good wet-fastness.

Until now, in case of natural dyeing, the appearance of medium colors were achieved by repeat dyeing with different colorants after dyeing with one colorant. In this study, however, new dyeing method for appearance of medium colors was developed by use of mixing solution of different colorants prepared with the same ratio using colorant concentrates. In combination dyeing, purple color was difficult to represent because of the Gardenia blue dye among the colorants used in this study was naby blue dye. But the other medium colors such as yellow red, green yellow, green and blue green were easily represented by use of reddish Sappan wood and yellowish Gardenia concentrates. If the natural blue dye is prepared in concentrate condition, the dyeings dyed in various colors may be obtained by combination dyeing.

In order to study on the color change of silk dyed with natural colorant due to light fading, and find out the effect of combination dyeing, colorant extracts of safflower red, safflower yellow and amur cork tree were used, either singly or in combination. In combination dyeing, safflower yellow or amur cork tree dyeing process was added on the top of the silk fabric was dyed with safflower red. Color change and light fastness were investigated by $L^*,\; a^*,\; b^*$ H, V/C, and Color difference. Brightness of silk fabric dyed with safflower red and safflower yellow increased gradually with increasing the radiation time of UV light, but amur cork tree was decreased and turned to dull. Color difference of dyed with Amur cork tree showed higher than the others. Combination dyeing of safflower red and amur cork tree provided better light fastness than the one of safflower red and safflower yellow.

A study of physical and chemical characteristics of pigments from Rhodopseudomonas viridis DSM 133 was carried out for development of natural greenish colorant. Through visible absorption scanning, it showed three main absorption peaks at 378, 414 and 677 nm with three minor peaks at 510, 540 and 618nm, and it was shown to be greenish color. These pigments were more stabilized in alkaline solutions than in acid of between pH 6 and 9, and it was shown to be stabilized at the temperature below $40^{\circ}C$. In the presence of light and oxygen, the stability of pigments rapidly degraded, and it became unstable in the presence of metal ion such as $Fe^{3+}$ and $Al^{3+}$. But in the presence of $Cu^{2+}$ were very stable. On the result of TLC analysis, pigments were shown to be composed of four color fractions and main color fractions were F-4 and F-2.
