In the last decade, investigations about possible use of natural dyes in textile dyeing processes have been carried out by various research groups. Various kind of natural dyes (e.g. Hibiscus mutabilis, Quercus infectoria and Cassia tora L.) were used to dye different types of materials (e.g. cotton, jute, wool, silk and leather) normally in the presence of mordant (e.g. alum, copper sulfate and ferrous sulphate). Studies on the dyeing techniques were attempted using both conventional (alkaline, acidic or neutral baths) and non-conventional methods (ultrasonic, microwave, sonicator and supercritical carbon dioxide fluids). The degree of dyeing was normally compared based on the colorfastness properties which can be defined as the property of a pigment or dye, or materials containing the coloring material, to retain its original hue, without fading, running or changing when wetted, washed, cleaned or stored under normal conditions when exposed to light, heat or other influences. Essentially, this means that different dyes will have different fastness on different materials.
