  • Abstract:
  • A major focus of this research is the environmental impact of using Euphorbia tirucalli dye, especially in comparison to conventional synthetic dyes. The textile industry is increasingly looking to sustainable alternatives to synthetic dyes in light of growing environmental concerns. This study examines the extraction of natural dyes from Euphorbia tirucalli (also known as pencil plant), a hardy, drought-resistant species, for use in green textiles. The extraction process was optimized through experimentation with different solvents, temperatures, and extraction times to maximize the dye yield. The chemical characterization of the dye reveals its potential for producing a range of vibrant colors suitable for textile applications. In addition, the study examines the dye's performance on various fabrics, evaluating color fastness, durability, and overall aesthetic quality. To emphasize the environmental benefits of plant-based colors, toxicity testing, biodegradability, and water use were evaluated. The findings imply that Euphorbia tirucalli presents a viable substitute that will lessen reliance on dangerous synthetic dyes while also encouraging sustainability in the textile sector. According to this study, the use of plant-based dyes, such Euphorbia tirucalli, can greatly aid in the creation of environmentally friendly, sustainable textile goods while satisfying market expectations for high-performance, low-impact materials.
