Analysis of Coal Tar Dye and Color Imports for 1928, compiled from the 1928 Department of Commerce Monthly Import Bulletins by SOCMA, c. 1929, CHH, box 77.

As a point of interest, it is possible to form very thin films or membranes in water, that is, to have the water-film-water system. Thus a solution of lipid can be stretched on an underwater wire frame and, on thinning, the film goes through a succession of interference colors and may end up as a black film of 60-90 A thickness [109]. The situation is reminiscent of soap films in air (see Section XIV-9) it also represents a potentially important modeling of biological membranes. A theoretical model has been discussed by Good [110]. 

Scandium iodide added to mercury vapor lamps produces a highly efficient light source resembling sunlight, which is important for indoor or night-time color TV. 

All compounds of chromium are colored the most important are the chromates of sodium and potassium and the dichromates and the potassium and ammonium chrome alums. The dichromates are used as oxidizing agents in quantitative analysis, also in tanning leather. 

Yttrium oxide is one of the most important compounds of yttrium and accounts for the largest use. It is widely used in making YVOr europium, and Y2O3 europium phosphors to give the red color in color television tubes. Many hundreds of thousands of pounds are now used in this application. 

Iodine compounds are important in organic chemistry and very useful in medicine. Iodides, and thyroxine which contains iodine, are used internally in medicine, and as a solution of KI and iodine in alcohol is used for external wounds. Potassium iodide finds use in photography. The deep blue color with starch solution is characteristic of the free element. 

Color and redox properties of a dye are related to the two mo-lecular orbitals of i v and They are both sensitive to the nature and position of the substituent. A perturbation of both orbitals occurs generally, but in some cases the effect is much more important for one of them. 

Hydrazono-5-(p-dialkylaminophenylimino)seienazoles, pyrazolone azomethin selenazoles, quinoid dyes, and formazans are other important dyes used in photography and the color industry (cf. previous sections). 

An important enzyme in bio logical electron transport called cytochrome P450 gets Its name from its UV absorp tion The P stands for pig ment because it is colored and the 450 corresponds to the 450 nm absorption of one of Its derivatives...

Sampling of a large population n = 900) of colored candies (M M s work well) is used to demonstrate the importance of sample size in determining the concentration of species at several different concentration levels. This experiment is similar to the preceding one described by Bauer but incorporates several analytes. 

The most important class of redox indicators, however, are substances that do not participate in the redox titration, but whose oxidized and reduced forms differ in color. When added to a solution containing the analyte, the indicator imparts a color that depends on the solution s electrochemical potential. Since the indicator changes color in response to the electrochemical potential, and not to the presence or absence of a specific species, these compounds are called general redox indicators. 

Animals that do not readily accept pelleted feeds may be enticed to do so if the feed carries an odor that induces ingestion. Color development is an important consideration in aquarium species and some animals produced for human food. External coloration is desired in aquarium species. Pink flesh in cultured salmon is desired by much of the consuming pubHc. Coloration, whether external or of the flesh, can be achieved by incorporating ingredients that contain pigments or by adding extracts or synthetic compounds. One class of additives that imparts color is the carotenoids. 

Quality Specifications. Because of the extreme sensitivity of polyamide synthesis to impurities ia the iagredients (eg, for molecular-weight control, dye receptivity), adipic acid is one of the purest materials produced on a large scale. In addition to food-additive and polyamide specifications, other special requirements arise from the variety of other appHcations. Table 8 summarizes the more important specifications. Typical impurities iaclude monobasic acids arising from the air oxidation step ia synthesis, and lower dibasic acids and nitrogenous materials from the nitric acid oxidation step. Trace metals, water, color, and oils round out the usual specification Hsts. 

Particles are the major cause of the ha2e and the brown color that is often associated with smog. The three most important types of particles produced in smog are composed of organics, sulfates, and nitrates. Organic particles are formed when large VOC molecules, especially aromatics and cycHc alkenes, react with each other and form condensable products. Sulfate particles are formed by a series of reactions initiated by the attack of OH on SO2 in the gas phase or by Hquid-phase reactions. Nitrate particles are formed by... 

Tocotrienols differ from tocopherols by the presence of three isolated double bonds in the branched alkyl side chain. Oxidation of tocopherol leads to ring opening and the formation of tocoquinones that show an intense red color. This species is a significant contributor to color quaUty problems in oils that have been abused. Tocopherols function as natural antioxidants (qv). An important factor in their activity is their slow reaction rate with oxygen relative to combination with other free radicals (11). 

Triacetate offers better ease-of-care properties than secondary acetate ia many apparel appHcations. Of particular importance are surface-finished fabrics, eg, fleece, velour, and suede for robes and dresses. These fabrics offer superb aesthetic quaHties at reasonable cost. Triacetate is also deskable for print fabrics, where it produces bright, sharp colors. The recent discontinuance of triacetate fiber Hi the United States has led to the use of acetate with fibers such as polyester (47—50).
