Abstract
Background: Fibrous materials are pivotal in textile manufacturing and are categorized into natural and manmade fibers. Natural fibers include cellulose-based (e.g., cotton, jute, flax) and protein-based fibers. Despite synthetic fibers' dominance, natural fibers are gaining traction due to eco-friendly attributes. This study focuses on Sansevieria trifasciata fibers (STF), a lingo-cellulosic natural fiber with promising textile applications. Methods: The study examined STF's physical and chemical properties, employing standard processes for scouring, bleaching, and dyeing. Raw STF fibers underwent cleaning, scouring with sodium hydroxide, and bleaching with hydrogen peroxide. Dyeing trials utilized Direct, Reactive, and Vat dyes, optimizing parameters such as concentration, pH, time, and temperature, adapted from jute fiber methods. Results: Scouring effectively removed impurities, achieving significant fiber cleanliness. Bleaching produced high whiteness (>80%). Post-treatment, STF exhibited altered weight, strength, elongation, and moisture content. Dyeing with Direct, Reactive, and Vat dyes yielded vibrant hues, with Reactive and Vat dyes displaying superior wash fastness (4 and 4/5, respectively). Photodegradation tests revealed color susceptibility under sunlight. Conclusion: STF demonstrates potential as a sustainable alternative in textiles, suitable for diverse applications including weaving, non-woven textiles, composites, and handicrafts. Adaptation of jute processing techniques was viable, though further research is needed for optimization. STF's renewable nature, eco-friendliness, and air purification benefits enhance its appeal for sustainable textile production and urban landscaping. Sansevieria trifasciata fibers present a viable eco-friendly option in the textile industry, warranting continued exploration and development.
