<br/><br/> The study, Color Stabilization of Teak Dye, aims to stabilize the color of the teak dye<br/>using xanthan gum as its stabilizing agent. The study focused on improving the product<br/>research in terms of absorbency and adherence of the teak dye to sample fabrics: cotton,<br/>linen, and jusi mordanted with aluminum salt, ferrous sulfate, and copper sulfate,<br/>respectively. The extracted dye crude from the teak leaves went through a stabilization<br/>process wherein the teak dye solution was mixed with xanthan gum to stabilize the Dye<br/>to improve colorfastness. The Dye went through tests such as UV-Visible Spectroscopy,<br/>Colorfastness to Laundering, Perspiration, and Lighting to confirm the effectiveness of<br/>the stabilized Dye. The different tests conducted showed that the stabilized teak dye<br/>could delay degradation and adhere to the sample fabrics. The study also conducted an<br/>online evaluation with the assistance of 20 respondents to determine the acceptability rate<br/>of the produced product. The survey garnered an overall mean of 4.10 that has a very<br/>acceptable descriptive rating from the criteria of aesthetics and saleability. This research<br/>benefits the dyeing community and other crafts hobbyists.
