A natureza química complexa e difícil de ser determinada completamente dos corantes naturais, faz necessária uma avaliação de variáveis no tingimento têxtil visando conhecer o comportamento do corante natural nesse processo. Para tanto, o corante natural de eucalipto, obtido a partir do resíduo do tratamento da madeira de eucalipto por vapor, foi avaliado. As variáveis selecionadas para o estudo foram a concentração do corante no tecido, a forma de aplicação em pó e “in natura”, o tempo na temperatura constante, a temperatura máxima de tingimento, o pH do banho de tingimento, a adição de sais metálicos, sulfato de ferro e sulfato de alumínio e potássio. Os resultados de cor dos tingimentos foram avaliados estatisticamente. Uma vez definida a condição ótima do tingimento com o corante natural em algodão, foram também tingidos os tecidos de lã e nylon. Os tecidos tingidos com o corante natural de eucalipto apresentaram boa solidez de cor à lavagem e fricção e solidez à luz típica dos corantes naturais. O estudo de variáveis no tingimento permitiu o conhecimento do efeito destas na cor dos tecidos tingidos com o corante natural, bem como da definição de um método sistemático de avaliação das propriedades dos corantes naturais nos tingimentos de têxteis.

The use of wood residues is gaining importance due to the large amount generated and improper disposal, which can seriously harm environment. Burning of wood residues to energy generation is an increasingly usual practice. However, wood residues hold chemical substances that could be recovered before burning. These substances are the wood extractives, which may have many uses as natural dyes for fabrics, foods and cosmetics, as well as potential medicines. Thus, it is of great interest to study the effect of extractive removal on the calorific value of wood residues. In this work, the calorific value of three Brazilian wood species commonly used in sawmills (hymenaeacourbaril, jatoba; cedrelingacatenaeformis, cedroarana; tabebuiasp, ipe) and residues of urban trees pruning (caesalpiniaechinata, Brazil wood) were evaluated before and after extraction in hot water. In woods studied, the calorific value showed three patterns of behavior after removal of extractives soluble in hot water. For Brazil wood, the removal of extractives caused no significant change in calorific value. For cedroarana and jatoba, extractive removal led to a decrease in wood calorific value of 161.3 kcal·kg-1 and 40.1 kcal·kg-1, respectively, which indicates that the extractives from these species have a positive energy potential. Finally, for ipe, the removal of extractives resulted in an increase in calorific value of wood (67.6 kcal·kg-1), which might encourage the recovery of extractives from wood residues before burning for energy generation.

A source of natural dye was found in industrial operation of steaming Eucalyptus grandis wood. The liquid waste generated at the end of the process has been discarded. Due to this fact and the intensity of the color of the product, it was emerged the idea of this study, considering natural dye for textile fabrics. The waste was used for dyeing cotton, nylon and wool by exhaustion dyeing process. The effects of the dye concentration, the application in liquid and powder form, time, temperature, pH of the dyeing bath and the addition of metal salts in the bath were evaluated. The physic-chemical characteristics of the waste as pH, color, thin layer chromatography, and total solids and condensed tannins were also investigated. The resulting dyed fabrics were evaluated for color fastness to light, domestic washing and rubbing. The waste showed brown color, acidic pH, average total solids content of 2.2% and content of condensed tannins of 0.93%. The results from thin layer chromatography of the residue suggested the presence of tannic acid in its composition. Regarding the color fastness, it was found a very good result considering domestic washfastness, with lightfastness typical of natural dyes. The rubbing fastness was good, especially for cotton, which presented excellent grades. It was possible to consider the liquid residue as product potentially destined to the textile industry, regarding the natural dyeing of cotton, nylon and wool.

A potential source for obtaining dye lies in industrial operation to obtain essential oil from eucalyptus leaves. It is a liquid waste generated in the distillation of the leaves, using water steam. A large volume of extract is generated and disposed as effluent of the process. Brazil is one of the worlds main producers of oil from eucalyptus leaves, especially Corymbia citriodora (formerly Eucalyptus), and there is, thus, significant potential for exploration of the effluent generated in the distillation of the leaves as raw material. With the support of a company in the oil production, it aimed to evaluate the potential of this extract as a natural dye, aiming at dyeing cotton. The characterization of waste effluent and natural dyestuff obtained was evaluated in terms of physical and chemical properties, such as total solids content, pH, density, condensed tannins content and color measurement by spectrophotometric analysis. In assessing the potential of the waste effluent as a natural dye, a study was conducted to determine the method of dyeing cotton, through various treatments which included changing variables such as temperature, time and concentration of natural dyestuff. In the dyed fabrics, it was evaluated the fastness properties of color in the light of a xenon arc and washing through the norms of the ABNT CB 17 - Textiles and Clothing. Both the waste effluent and the natural dyestuff presented an acid pH, total solids content of 3.4% and 48.1% and condensed tannin content of 0.6% and 10.9% respectively. Regarding the color of the extracts, both shown the brown color. The waste effluent had higher values of L*, a* b* than the natural dyestuff, and this was approximately to the black color, because the values of L*, a* b* were close to zero. The property with the larger variation in the colors of dyed fabrics was the L*. The values of E* also varied between treatments, with only treatment 9 was considered similar to reference 8, for this property. Concerning the results of washing fastness, the notes of color change were 3-4 for both concentrations of dye in dyed fabrics. The staining of the multi-fiber fabric was generally greater than 4 for both concentrations. For color fastness properties in light, dyed fabrics have the notes changed in the order of 2-3 and 3 for the concentrations 10% and 50%, respectively. In general, solidity results showed that natural dyestuff reached the acceptable notes for textile industry and the natural dyestuff obtained from waste effluent leaves of C. citriodora has a potential use as natural dyestuff in dyeing cotton.
