This research studies dyeing with Thai herbs for UV protection properties in textile products applications and aimed to: study procedures and techniques for this; investigate the use of herbal plant for UV protection; study UV protection properties in fabrics dyed with Thai herbs that can protect against UV rays. The process involved dyeing from natural surplus materials (militia kityana leaves lemongrass leaves and areca palm seeds) extracting the dyes for use in silk dyeing with a mordant to increase the affinity of the dye and fiber then rating the percentage of UV light blocked. Finally the fabric was used to design clothes as a prototype for five Muslim outfits. The research team chose dyed silk fabric with the percentage of UV light blocked are 95.67 – 96.24 which is in good to excellent protection level. Five outfits were designed for this study: 1) Silk dyeing with dyes extracted from the lemongrass leaves – using the first method of fabric dyeing with clear muddy water 1% as mordant 2) Silk dyeing with dyes extracted from lemongrass leaves – using the fourth method of fabric dyeing with the fabric fermented for 30 minutes in mud before dyeing 3) Silk dyed with dyes extracted from areca palm seeds – using the first method of fabric dyeing with 3% tamarind water as mordant 4) Silk dyed with dyes extracted from areca palm seeds – using the fourth method of fabric dyeing with the fabric fermented for 30 minutes in mud before dyeing and 5) Silk dyed with natural dyes extracted from militia kityana leaves – using the first method of fabric dyeing with 1% tamarind water as mordant.
