Abstract

Kind Materials Research innovatively integrates bio-dyeing with laser technology, offering sustainable alternatives to conventional dyeing and finishing. Experimental bio-mordants derived from plant, fungi, and algae sources enhanced the natural dyes, eliminating toxicity. Laser irradiation was creatively employed as a print-process, introducing precise patterns. Combining these approaches resulted in Linen textiles that reimagine traditional coloration, aligning with sustainable, circular design principles.
