Ultraviolet (UV) radiations are carcinogenic, repeated UV exposure causes damage to skin cells and leads to develop skin cancer. Present research work has been undertaken to develop eco-friendly Bacofabric blend of Organic cotton and Banana having UV protective action along with good colorfastness properties by extracting the dyes using Terminalia arjuna at various dyeing concentrations. Optimal results were achieved by dyeing at 80 °C for 90 minutes using the pre-mordanting method with different mordants. The developed dyed samples very good results in terms of colour fastness to washing and sunlight.Findings showed that the mordanted samples have high dye uptake with excellent UPF values. These results are very important for industrial application with the application of Terminalia arjunadye on Baco fabric in providing UV protection to textiles for varied end uses.
