History of
DYES
Dyestuffs are a branch of chemistry inspired
by many people in history. The earliest written
records of use of dyestuffs was found in China
around 2600 B.C. Alexander the Great during his
conquest of India in 327 B.C., mentions about the
beautifully printed cottons that he saw during
one of his expeditions. Around 1745, the dye
INDIGO was grown in England, which was
imported from India.
In
1868, a German chemist produced
ALIZARIN, which was found to be useful as a
synthetic substitute. In 1887, ALIZARIN YELLOW
was used as a mordant dye. And 40 years later,
Baeyer and Sunder had developed INDIGO SOL-O,
which was a versatile dye that found various
applications.
DYE:
A dye is a colored substance that has an affinity
to the substrate to which it is being applied. The
dye is generally applied in an aqueous solution,
and requires a mordant to improve the fastness
of the dye on the fiber.

Synthetic dye
The first human-made (synthetic) organic dye,
mauveine, was discovered serendipitously by
William Henry Perkin in 1856. Many thousands of
synthetic dyes have since been prepared.
Synthetic dyes quickly replaced the traditional
natural dyes. They cost less, they offered a vast
range of new colors, and they imparted better
properties to the dyed materials. Dyes are now
classified according to how they are used in the
dyeing process.
Dye types
It distinguishes based on the process of
application to various substrates. They are
subdivided with examples as follows-

AZO DYE
Azo compounds are compounds bearing the functional
group R-N=N-R', in which R and R' can be either aryl or
alkyl. IUPAC defines azo compounds as: "Derivatives of
diazene (diimide), HN=NH, wherein both hydrogens are
substituted by hydrocarbyl groups, e.g. PhN=NPh
azobenzene or diphenyldiazene." The more stable
derivatives contain two aryl groups. The N=N group is
called an azo group.
