Abstract

The goal of this study was to utilize microwave and ultrasound irradiation as green methodologies, not only to improve dyeing performance of polyester fabric with disperse red 60, but also, to save energy for preserving the environmental impact. Both of color strength expressed as dye uptake and the fastness properties of the dyed fabric were evaluated.
