Dyes and Pigments Market |
Dyes and Pigments is a book about the chemistry and physics
of dyes, pigments, and their intermediates from a scientific and technological
standpoint. The features of the colouring materials are emphasised rather than
their applications or the systems in which they can be used. Thus, the journal
accepts research and review papers on the synthesis of dyes, pigments, and
intermediates, as well as their physical or chemical properties, such as
spectroscopic, surface, solution, or solid state characteristics, physical
aspects of their preparation, such as precipitation, nucleation, and growth,
crystal formation, liquid crystalline characteristics, photochemical,
ecological, or biological properties, and the relationship between colour and
chemical constitution. However, papers dealing with the more fundamental
elements of colourant application and colourant interactions with substrates or
media are being evaluated.

The journal will appeal to a wide range of workers in a
variety of disciplines who work with dyes, pigments, and their intermediates,
and it will serve as a platform for researchers working in fields as diverse as
cosmetics, reprographics, dye and pigment synthesis, medical research,
polymers, and so on.
Dyes and pigments are chemicals that give a material its
colour. Both dyes (also known as dyestuffs) and pigments are commonly referred
to as colourants. Solubility is the main distinction between dyes and pigments
(the tendency to dissolve in a liquid, especially water). Dyes are normally
soluble in water or can be manipulated to be so. The material to be coloured
can be immersed in the dye solution once the dye has been dissolved in water.
The material develops a colour as it absorbs the dye and dries. The dye is
termed to be colorfast if the material retains its colour after being washed.
In general, pigments are not soluble in water, oil, or other
common solvents. They are ground into a fine powder and thoroughly mixed with a
liquid termed the dispersing agent or vehicle before being applied to a
substance. The pigment-dispersing agent combination is subsequently applied to
the coloured material. The pigment is maintained in place on the material as
the dispersing agent dries.
Pigments are used to colour paints, inks, cosmetics, and
polymers, whereas dyes are used to colour textiles, paper, and other materials.
