| Abstract | ||||
| In conclusion, this work presents the potential utilization of natural extracts obtained from Moringa oleifera and its derived products in textile finishing processes. The work has demonstrated the ability of the extracts to impart desirable, bio-based functionalities including antimicrobial, antioxidant, and UV protective functions. The potential of the Moringa and bucky tissues-based extracts to impart noteworthy and desirable bio-based functionalities to textile in a simple and cost-effective manner makes the work notable. The high degree of KYI and KHI confirmed the suitability of the extracts for use in textile wet processing operations as low pollution alternatives. The utilisation of these types of plant extract reduces the environmental impact of textile dye effluents, in addition to reducing water and energy consumption. This has further implications for the sustainable manufacturing of textiles in a number of emerging applications for textiles in the fields of health, safety, and protection. It is important to note that due to the attractiveness of Moringa derived extracts for textiles, the military sector has been investigating decontamination of toxic military compounds like pesticides, toxic gases using Moringa derived compounds. The work carried on in this paper was to provide a base for that kind of work. The extract was successfully utilized in textile printing as a binding agent. The impact on mechanical properties and durability of treated cotton fabric to washing was demonstrated and discussed. Due to the growing interest for natural compounds in high-temperature treatment, it is important to investigate the impact of heating conditions and such treatments on colloidal systems and the textile structures. As such, the applicability of Moringa and dyes to printing techniques should be explored further. The work also presents possible solutions for common finishing issues related to metallization, such as skin irritability. These can be important factors in those applications where fabrics can infill direct contact with the skin. This important factor should be considered in the synthesis of novel dyes for commercial textile printing formulations. | ||||
