Textile printing is a wet technology that is gaining popularity for all sorts of materials and apparel. Printing is a type of dyeing in which colors are applied to specific regions of the cloth as opposed to the entire fabric. To limit the colouring matter to the design area, it is glued with a thickening agent, which might be a natural or synthetic polymer. Polymers are increasingly commonly employed instead of simple chemicals in previous years to increase various functional features at the same time, such as improving absorbency, antibacterial abilities, and ultraviolet protection (UV) by any finishing or coating technique. Pectin is a good contender for the eco-friendly textile industry since it is a low-cost rich and diverse natural resource that requires minimum processing. This study aimed to enhance natural and synthetic fabrics printability with natural dye (peppermint) and synthetic dyes (reactive, acid, basic and disperse) using polyanion, increasing in color strength KS and colorfastness properties and providing them new functional characteristics such as antimicrobial protection.
