“…Figure 5 shows that in the temperature-rising process, the exhaustion of Red 180 on tussah and mulberry silks was low. Moreover, the exhaustion on tussah silk was lower than that on mulberry silk, which is likely because tussah silk has a smaller surface area and a lower swelling extent than mulberry silk [ 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 ]. Additionally, during this period, Red 180 had a certain extent of fixation on the two silks.…”

“…Although the content of tyrosine in tussah silk is slightly lower than that in mulberry silk (10.60% vs. 11.29%wt), the content of basic amino acids in tussah silk is significantly higher than that in mulberry silk (7.13%wt vs. 1.84%wt) [ 24 ]. The lower exhaustion, fixation, and fixation quantity of reactive dyes on tussah silk are very likely related to the following factors: compared with mulberry silk, tussah silk has a higher content of acidic amino acids, generating more negative charges [ 24 ], smaller surface area [ 30 , 31 ], and lower swelling [ 32 , 33 ], all of which decrease the adsorption quantity of dyes. However, on the whole, the fixation efficiency of SES dyes on tussah silk was slightly higher than that on mulberry silk, which was evidenced by the smaller difference between the exhaustion and fixation of tussah silk, as depicted in Figure 6 .…”

Tussah silk is one of the most widely used wild silks. It is usually dyed with acid dyes, despite the shortcoming of poor wet fastness. Reactive dyeing is a good solution to this problem. In our work, sulfatoethylsulfone (SES), sulfatoethylsulfone/monochlorotriazine (SES/MCT), monochlorotriazine (MCT), and bis(monochlorotriazine) (Bis(MCT)) dyes were used to dye tussah silk. All of these dyes showed lower exhaustion and fixation on tussah silk than on mulberry silk under alkaline conditions. Among them, SES dyes were more applicable, with a fixation of 70–85% (at 4%owf dye) at 90 °C when using sodium bicarbonate as an alkali. SES dyes also showed a rapid fixation speed. The dyeing of tussah silk required lower sodium bicarbonate dosage, the use of more neutral electrolytes, and a higher dye quantity to achieve deep effects compared to mulberry silk. Dyed tussah silk displayed lower apparent color depth and brilliance than dyed mulberry silk. The neutral boiling dyeing of tussah silk with SES dyes exhibited higher exhaustion, higher fixation (82–92% at 4%owf dye), and a slower fixation speed compared with alkaline dyeing. Furthermore, in this dyeing method, SES dyes showed higher and more efficient fixation on tussah silk than on mulberry silk. All dyed tussah silk had excellent color fastness to soaping.

“…Color fastness is the ability of a printed or dyed material to maintain its color under various conditions during production as well as in actual use. Fastnesses to light, rubbing, washing, and perspiration were all examined [10]. However, in light of the current situation, the present study aims to provide dryers in the Tasar region of India with valuable insights on the dyeing behaviors of both wet and dry reeled Tasar silk yarns, with respect to fastness qualities and color strength.…”

Tasar silk is extremely sought-after due to its natural beauty, toughness, sustainability, and cultural significance. Despite the historical need for Tasar textiles in their natural hue, weavers have created a limited number of unique designs and variants of Tasar silk. Since the younger generation requires 100% Tasar fabric in a range of items with diverse patterns and color combinations, it has become more vital to dye the Tasar yarn a distinct color. The fastness characteristics and color strength of Acid, Reactive, and Lanaset dye on dry reeled and wet reeled Tasar silk yarns were compared in this paper. In order to assess the yarn samples' color intensity and resistance to rubbing, sweat, washing, and light, they were treated appropriately. The findings of the fastness test showed that, in comparison to other yarns, acid and reactively colored yarns had lower washing and sweat fastness, respectively. Better light fastness was seen in fibers colored with Lanaset. Comparing reactive dyeing to acid and Lanaset dyeing, the former demonstrated a stronger color.
