Natural dyes are known widely thanks to friendly properties to environment as health protecting ability for human. In this study, naphthaquinone of nipa coconut shells extracted by the reflux method that created effectively. The influences of ratio of dye extract, temperatures and time of dyeing and types of mordants based on the color strength (K/S) and color difference (DE) were studied. Our study applies the methods of extracting colorants in ethanol solvent, dyeing on an infrared dyeing machine, Mesdan by the exhaust dyeing method, measuring color on an X-Rite Color i5 spectrometer machine, analyzing effecting parameters by CIELab popular color space, and measuring Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy to evaluate the presence of naphthaquinone in dye extract and bonding on fabric, testing more scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to observe the surface of dyed samples clearly. As results, the Nipa fruticans shell extract can dye 100% cotton fabric with a color difference ∆E of 41.07 and a K/S color strength of 12.96 when dyed with 10% CuSO4.7H2O because of their complex formation with the colorant with cellulose. Color fastness to washing on dyed cotton samples according to the ISO 105 – C06 A1S and ISO 105-X12 standard were tested to clarify further impacts of mordants to dye ability.
