Journal PanggungPanggung Abstract

Block printing is a technique of carving motifs on a printing plate coated with dye and pressed repeatedly along the fabric to create patterns. In todays textiles and fashion industries, the use of natural materials is increasing in line with the growing awareness of a sustainable lifestyle. This study aims to develop Soga tingi dye into the optimal paste formula for block printing techniques with fixation, plate material, and suitable fabrics. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative data from literature reviews, field observations, interviews, and laboratory experiments. The results reveal the successful formulation of a Soga tingi natural dye paste with an optimal composition, using sodium alginate as the most effective thickening agent.

Conclusion

Based on the research conducted, focusing on the development of block printing using Soga tingi natural dye paste as colorants, it can be concluded that Soga tingi is highly suitable for use in the block printing technique.The research found that the most effective thickening agent is sodium alginate, a food-grade thickener used in a precise ratio of 10 g to 100 ml of liquid natural dye.This composition resulted in a smooth, mucus-like consistency, making it easier to apply to fabric and ensuring an even distribution of color.Wood-based printing plates were found to be the most effective choice for printing materials, producing precise and well-defined prints.Toyobo cotton fabric was selected as the printing medium due to its natural fiber composition, allowing for better natural dye absorption.The research shows that Soga tingi natural dye paste, when applied with block printing technique into fabric, presents a viable and sustainable alternative for textile design, preserving traditional craftsmanship and aligning with the global movement toward eco-friendly and sustainable fashion.

Future Research

To further enhance the quality and efficiency of natural dyes, advanced studies are needed to level up their bargaining position with synthetic dyes. One potential area of exploration is the development of natural dye pastes for block printing, which can lead to a range of color shades and artistic color transitions. Additionally, the study of different printing plate materials and their impact on print quality can be pursued. Finally, the research can focus on measuring color fastness through laboratory testing to ensure the durability and performance of the natural dye paste in block printing applications.
