Silk is possessed with valuable textile materials of unique properties like sheen, softness, luster, elegance, strength, uniformity make it suitable for the production of unique textile and garment products. Compared to other textiles like cotton; silk consists of the functional groups in different aspects suitable in the application of both the acid and the basic mild conditions. Hence, silk could be subjected with the coloration process using various dye categories. With respect to this, it is proposed in the present work to increase the characteristics of domestic mulberry silk fabric by treating with collected sericin along with natural nishing sources like aloevera, amla and nochi in varied combinations followed by coloring process using some specic natural sources. The silk fabrics were then subjected for some specic testing process for measuring the coloration data, fastness characters, hand values, absorption criteria, uv protection aspects, x ray diffraction micrographs and scanning electron microscope images. The results received are in the satisfaction level suitable for the production of textile products especially garment and apparels.
