Abstract

The aim of the study was to investigate the possibility of dyeing of wool fibers with the aqueous extract of Arnebia euchroma and improve the dyeability of wool fiber using a simple environmentally friendly pretreatment with oxygen plasma. The process of plasma pretreatment and dyeing was optimized by response surface methodology. Four independent factors including plasma time, Alum mordant concentration, dyeing temperature and pH were selected and the effects of these factors on the color strength of the dyed samples were examined and optimized using D-optimal approach.
