ETHNOBOTANICAL STUDY IDENTIFICATION OF PLANT TYPES THAT CAN BE USED IN ECOPRINT PRODUCTION

Used of synthetic dye in the textile industry produced liquid waste if it is not recycle with properly, it can cause pollution and contamination of water both on the surface and every drop used by humans, disrupting ecosystems and even killing life in aquatic ecosystems. Therefore, an alternative to synthetic dye is needed by using plants as natural dye. Leaves can be used for their color content; leaf bones and leaf surfaces can be used as textile motif called ecoprint. This research purposing to find out the types of plants that can be used as materials for making ecoprint as a substitute for synthetic dye and also to find out the parts of plants that can be used as material for making ecoprint. The research method used is descriptive qualitative from literature study and literature references regarding data and information related to research. The results showed there are 30 types of plants that can be used in ecoprint. This habitus plants are herbaceous, vines, shrubs, shrubs and trees. From herbaceous habitus found 5 species of plants, 3 species of vine habitus, 7 species of bush habitus, 10 species of shrub habitus and 5 species of tree habitus. The parts of plants that can be used in making ecoprints are the leaves, flowers, stems and roots. The results showed there were 30 species of plants from 21 families that could be used in making ecoprint. The parts of plant can be used in making ecoprint are parts, leaves, flowers, stems and roots, but not all parts of every type of plant can be used in the process of making ecoprint.


INTRODUCTION
Various types of plants have been used as a source of food, clothing, medicine, building materials, cosmetic materials, and raw materials in industry [1].In the textile industry, for example, the plant can be used as natural dye.
Dyeing process in the textile industry using natural dye and synthetic dye.However, the coloring process using synthetic dye can produce waste that needs to be reprocessed so as not to pollute the environment [2].Synthetic dyes are also toxic to several types of organisms in the surrounding environment [3].
The textile industry considered as one of the biggest polluting industry on the world.One of the forms of pollution produced is liquid waste that is not properly reprocessed, such as synthetic dye, suspended solids, heavy metal, and complex chemical component [4].
The results of laboratory analysis on kale from the study site showed that there were heavy metals

Data Analysis Technique
The data obtained from the result of literature study presented from tabular form and then the result

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
From research that has been In addition, after being applied to the cloth, the colour from the plant part and the colour produced when producing ecoprint products are the same and some are different.Like the colour that is produced from using calcining butterfly leaves which are purple in colour, after being used in making ecoprints it changes colour to brown.However, Japanese papaya leaves are green, after being applied to ecoprint they remain green.

CONCLUSION
The results showed that there were 30 plant species from 21 families that could be used in making ecoprint.
The parts of plant that can be used in making ecoprint are parts, leaves, flowers, stems and roots, but not all parts of every type of plant can be used in making ecoprint.

SUGGESTIONS
The use of plants as natural dye to replace synthetic dye in clothing must be continuously developed to prevent environmental damage and prevent various health problem.
Further studies are needed regarding the identification of other types of plants that can be used in making ecoprints so that they can produce more varied colours and motif when applied in making ecoprint.
must use fixator auxiliaries as a color locking agent [9].The Rose petal used as motif through ecoprint on cotton fabric with a combination of mordant tunjung and quicklime because they producing the best pattern sharpness and fastness [10].However, not all types of plant used in making ecoprint.Further study needed to find out the type of plant used in making ecoprint.This study aim to determined the type of plant used as material for making ecoprint as a substitute for synthetic dye and to find out the part of plant used as material for making ecoprint.By knowing some of these plant species, it can attract the interest of the community, especially those with a intermediate to lower economy, to utilized plant species in the surrounding environment in making ecoprint businesses as an effort to help improved the local community's economy.In addition, ecoprint used a substitute for synthetic dye in clothing because the waste generated from the using of synthetic dye is very dangerous for human health and can pollute the surrounding environment.Therefore, the research team is interested in conducting research on ethnobotanical studies identifying plant species that can be used in making ecoprint.RESEARCH METHODS The research method used descriptive qualitative with taken data from literature study and literature references regarding data and information related to researching.Research activity were carried out in Tampok Blang Village, Sukamakmur District, Aceh Besar, in May to June 2023.The population in this study were all plant species found in Tampok Blang Village, Sukamakmur District, Aceh Besar.While sample in this study are plant species that can be used as ecoprint.The research step described as follows: 1. Preliminaries Stage The research team conducted the literature study to find out what types of plant used in the process of making ecoprint.Furthermore, the research team conducted initial observations to determine the condition and presence of plants in the study area.Implementation stage, the researcher documents these plant in the form of photographs using a camera to prove the existence of these plants in the area where the research is being carried out.Then, the research team identified morphological and taxonomic features with the guidance of several literature.After that, identification is carried out through a literature study regarding the parts of plant organs that can be used in making copoint.Furthermore, the data analysis was carried out by tabulating data obtained and described it.species used for making ecoprint.This technique known as the triangulation technique, namely different data collection technique to obtain data with the same purpose [11].
and Huberman model, the stages of which consisted reduction of data, data presentation, conclusion and verification [11].
