Following the reported study that showed the dyeability of diamino-anthraquinoid blue dyes substituted with relatively shorter alkyl groups, the longer aliphatic substituents than pentyl group were examined in terms of the color strength and fastness properties toward UHMWPE fibers. The color strength was increased up to pentyl group and then gradually decreased. However, the fastness properties were improved continuously to octyl group which was the longest alkyl substituent in this study. The most effective maximum color strength was obtained at $130^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours with 3% owf of dyes. The overall fastnesses to washing, rubbing, and light were good enough for practical uses.

The low melting PET yarn has sheath/core structure: sheath portion consists of low melting point PET and core portion is regular PET. Dyeing properties of fabric made from low melting PET yarn were investigated at different dyeing temperatures. It was found that the exhaustion yield on the low melting PET fabric was higher than on regular PET fabric. The total K/S value of the dyed low melting PET fabric increased as heat setting temperature increased above $150^{\circ}C$ because the sheath portion of the low melting yarn melted. Although fastness to light of the low melting PET fabric was similar to regular PET fabric, fastness to washing was inferior to regular PET fabric by 1 grade.

Research to dyeing properties of Ulmi cortex extract, silk and cotton fabrics were dyed and mordanted. Dyes were extracted from distilled water according to different pH values. The dyeability of Ulmi cortex extract were evaluated by conditions of dyeing temperature, dyeing time, dyeing pH, mordanting temperature, mordanting time, mordanting concentration and color fastness, etc. IR spectrum possessed absorption band of -OH at $3400cm^{-1},\;C-H\;at\; 2940cm^{ -1},\;aromatic\;C=C\;at\;1628cm^{-1},\;1518cm^{-1},\;C-O\;at\; 1107cm^{ -1},\;1043cm^{-1}$. And the $\labmda$max of extract appeared at 220nm and 280nm, so the substance of Ulmi cortex extract were catechin and tannin. Surface color of dyed fabrics were reddish yellow~yellow~greenish yellow. From the color fastness test, the fabrics dyed with PH 7 extract were excellent in irradiation and washing. Mordanting improved the color fastness and K/S value of dyed fabrics.

Some phthalimidyl azo dyes containing N,N-diethyl or N,N-di($\beta$-methoxycarbonylethyl) group have been attempted to apply onto two kinds of polyurethane based materials and rationalize their dyeability and fastness comparing with those of some commercial disperse dyes. Phthalimidyl azo dye showed 66~98% of exhaustion yield at $120^{\circ}C$ by a conventional exhaust dyeing method. The dyeings were found to have a higher wash fastness with both fabrics in comparison with those of commercial dyes which indicates lower thermomigration and efficient alkali clearable properties of phthalimidyl ring and/or diester group during post-dyeing process.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the dyeing properties of silk, wool, nylon and poly(ethylene teraphtlate)〔PET〕 fabrics dyed with Tumeric(Curcuma longa) extracts. The dyeing property and color fastness were investigated by using the extracts and the post mordanting with Aluminum, Copper and Iron salts. In the UV-visible spectra, the maximum absorption of wavelength of the extract with methyl alcohol appeared at 420nm, and that of the extract with distilled water was at 415nm. Increasing the dyeing temperature, the K/S values of dyed fabrics were increased. The optimum dyeing condition was 30∼60 minute of dyeing time at pH 5∼5.6. Surface colors of silk and wool became dark by using mordants compared to those of nylon and PET fabrics. The drycleaning fastness of fabrics dyed with the extracts was good. The laundering and light fastness were improved by using mordants.

This study investigated the properties and functions of wool and silk dyed with Catechu by examining the effects of dying conditions such as dye concentration, dying temperature, dyeing time, pH level and pre-mordants. These conditions were examined in relation to dye uptake and color changes, washing fastness, light fastness, ultraviolet-cut ability and antimicrobial ability of the dyed fabrics. Catechu showed good affinity to silk fiber. Langmuir adsorption isotherm was obtained, and so it was considered that ionic bondings are formed between Catechu and protein fiber. As the dyeing time and temperature is increased, the dyeability of both silk and wool fabrics also increases. At high temperatures the color of dyed fabrics changes from Y and YR to R. Wool is effective in using Al, Cu, Fe mordant, while silk is effective only in using only Cu mordants. The dyeability was shown to be improved at low pH levels. Additionally, both washing fastness and light fastness were shown to be low. However, the fabric color gradually changed to red was due to mailard reaction of catechol tannin causingby repeated washing and sunlight. The ultraviolet-cut ability was improved for cotton fabric dyed with Catechu. Also, dyed fabric with Catechu showed very good antimicrobial abilities at 99.9%.

In this research, the dyeing properies of Amur cork tree on sheep leathers were evaluated. The proper dyeing conditions were identified with K/S values depending on the colorant concentration, dyeing time, dyeing temperature and dye bath pH. For the proper conditions, the changes of color for different mordants(Al, Cu and Fe) were observed as $L^*a^*b^*$ coordinates and H V/C values. The color fastnesses were also examined, and the antimicrobial properties were examined. The results were as follows: For the sheep leather, the optimized dyeing conditions were 300% o.w.f., 40 min., $40^{\circ}C$, and pH 5. The leather color was yellow in the dyeing and mordanting. Although the $L^*a^*b^*$ changed with the mordants and mordanting methods, the overall hue was yellow. The colorfastness to light was reduced compared to original(untreated) sheep leather. The rubbing fastness was generallry satisfactory as 4-5 rating. The dry-cleaning fastness(stain) of leathers were generally at the 4-5 level, but dry-cleaning fastness(fade) was a little reduced compared to original sheep leather. The dyed and pre-mordanted and dyed sheep leather showed excellent antimicrobial properties.

The purpose of this study is to investigate dyeing properties and functionality of cotton and silk fabrics dyed with hot-water extract from Juniperus chinensis heartwood. Water-soluble dye of Juniperus chinensis heartwood extracted with distilled water was expressed YR color series. Dye uptake of cotton continued to increase according to the increase of the dye concentration. Its variation trends were shown to be similar to the isothermal absorption curve of the Freundlich. Dye uptake of silk was better than cotton, increased depending on increasing concentration of the dye, dyeing time and temperature. Its variation trends were shown to be similar to the isothermal absorption curve of the Langmuir. As the pH increased, the dye uptake of fabrics reduced and showed increased on red tinge. Colors of the dyed fabrics were various, depending on dye concentration and the mordant type and mordant concentration. Washing fastness, light fastness and perspiration fastness were not good. However, rubbing and dry cleaning fastness showed relatively good grade. Dyed fabrics of ultraviolet-cut ability and deodorant ability were improved. And dyed fabrics showed antimicrobial abilities of 99.9% against Staphylococcus aureus.
