A. Onal, EXTRACTION OF DYESTUFF FROM ONION (ALLIUM-CEPA L) AND ITS APPLICATIONIN THE DYEING OF WOOL, FEATHERED-LEATHER AND COTTON, Turkish journal of chemistry, 20(3), 1996, pp. 194-203
In this study, the total amount of dyeing substances present in onion
(Allium cepa L.) was determined by using the extraction method. The ex
tracted substanc were used in the dyeing of woollen strips, feathered-
leather and cotton. Dyeing conditions and other characteristics were
determined and the repeatable specifics were evaluated for these proce
