Decoction as an Alternative to Producing Indigo Tarum Areuy (Marsdenia tinctoria) Dyes and Its Role on Fiber Coloration from Cellulose

Ika Natalia Mauliza, Vita Permata Putri

Abstract

Indigo natural dyes are generally made by maceration-fermentation for 24 - 72 hours impacting on productivity. A faster extraction method is needed by decoction methods. The faster production of indigo tarum areuy dyes is done by decoction at temperatures of 60ºC, 70ºC and 80ºC for 5 minutes, 10 minutes and 15 minutes. The extract was adjusted to reach pH 11. Aeration was carried out 30 minutes and then deposited for 24 hours. Indigo dyes are determined yield, purity of indigo, and evaluation of the quality of the staining results using spectrophotometric methods and color fastness testing of washing. Increased yield of indigo dyes occurs at temperatures of 60ºC and 70ºC. At 80ºC, the yield decreases with increasing decoction time. The best temperature and decoction time for pure indigo yield and the quality of the dyeing results in cotton were at 70ºC for 15 minutes with a yield of 3.625 grams per 500 grams of leaves. The dyeing color of the cotton fabric has increased along with the increase in yield and the purity of the dye. The highest color determination is achieved by a cloth dyed by indigo dyes from the decoction process at 70ºC for 15 minutes, with a K / S value of 3.8754. The extraction time and temperature did not affect the washing fastness.
