The silk dyeing utilising chemical oxidation of (+)-catechin was attempted in order to establish the deep dyeing at low temperature in a short time for inventing novel human- and eco-friendly dyeing. In the study, the dyeability of the new oxidation technique was compared with the mordanting method....
