Abstract :
Citrus trees are benefitted in a wide range of areas from food production to industry. In this study, it is aimed to form a colour catalogue by determining usability of some citrus leaves in vegetable dyeing and evaluating colours obtained through subjective and objective methods. Dried leaves of some citrus trees such as lemon (C.limon L.), tangerine (C. reticulata Blanco), orange (C. sinensis L.) and bitter orange (C. aurantium L.) were used as studying materials and a total of 68 dyeing processes, both with and without the aid of mordants, were realized.In dyeing with the aid of mordants, 8 different chemicals such as aluminium alum (Kal(SO_4)_2), zinc chloride (ZnCl_2), tin chloride (SnCl_2), potassium bichromate (K_2Cr_2O_7), sodium chloride (NaCl_2), sodium sulphate (Na_2SO_4), sodium sulphite (Na_2SO_3), tannic acid (C_76H_52O_46) were used as mordants 3 % and 5 % in percentage terms.Colours obtained as a result of dyeing processes were determined through subjective and objective evaluating methods. Various tones of yellow, beige, bone colour, amber, earth colour, mustard colour, brown, old rose colour, yellow-green and green-brown colours, dark and light tones of these colours were obtained through subjective evaluation method. When these obtained colours were evaluated objectively, it was determined that colour difference values change between 11.56 and 26.02 in lemon leaves, 12.63 and 28.36 in tangerine leaves, 6.89 and 77.92 in orange leaves, 12.33 and 26.68 in bitter orange leaves.
