Soluble dyes

An emulsion may be defined as a mixture of particles of one liquid with some second liquid. The two common types of emulsions are oil-in-water (O/W) and water-in-oil (W/0), where the term oil is used to denote the water-insoluble fiuid. These two types are illustrated in Fig. XIV-1, where it is clear that the majority or outer phase is continuous, whereas the minority or inner phase is not. These two emulsion types are distinguished by their ability to disperse oil or water-soluble dyes, their dilution with oil or water, and their conductivity (O/W emulsions have much higher conductivity than do W/0 ones see Ref. 1 for reviews). 

Most textile fibers are delustered with 0.1—3.0 wt % Ti02 to reduce the gHtter and plastic appearance. Many PET fibers also contain optical bTighteners (17). Through the use of soluble dyes or pigments, including photochromic pigments (19), a wide variety of producer-colored fibers and effects is available. 

The FD C certified colors are all water-soluble dyes, but can be transformed into insoluble pigments known as lakes by precipitating the dyes with alurninum, calcium, or magnesium salts on a substrate of aluminum hydroxide. The lakes are useful in appHcations that require color whereas in dry form, such as cake mixes, or where water may be present and bleeding is a problem, such as food packaging. FD C Red Lake No. 3 was deHsted in Febmary... 

The inks formulated for jet printing must be very fluid, stable, and free of any particles that could cause clogging of the jet nozzles, and be capable of depositing and adhering to a substrate with a minimum of character fogging. They are generally formulated with soluble dye colorants in a suitable aqueous or solvent-based vehicle (9). 

Approximately 90% of the phthalocyanines (predominantly copper phthalocyanine) are used as pigments (qv). In addition, they have found acceptance in many types of dyestuffs, eg, direct and reactive dyes, water-soluble and solvent-soluble dyes with physical and chemical binding, a2o-reactive dyes, a2o nonreactive dyes, sulfur dyes, and vat dyes (1) (see Dyes Dyes, reactive). 

Phthalocyanine Dyes. In addition to their use as pigments, the phthalocyanines have found widespread appHcation as dyestuffs, eg, direct and reactive dyes, water-soluble dyes with physical or chemical binding, solvent-soluble dyes with physical or chemical binding, a2o reactive dyes, a2o nonreactive dyes, sulfur dyes, and wet dyes. The first phthalocyanine dyes were used in the early 1930s to dye textiles like cotton (qv). The water-soluble forms Hke sodium salts of copper phthalocyanine disulfonic acid. Direct Blue 86 [1330-38-7] (Cl 74180), Direct Blue 87 [1330-39-8] (Cl 74200), Acid Blue 249 [36485-85-5] (Cl 74220), and their derivatives are used to dye natural and synthetic textiles (qv), paper, and leather (qv). The sodium salt of cobalt phthalocyanine, ie. Vat Blue 29 [1328-50-3] (Cl 74140) is mostly appHed to ceUulose fibers (qv). 

Lakes are either dry toner pigments that are extended with a soHd diluent, or an organic pigment obtained by precipitation of a water-soluble dye, frequendy a sulfonic acid, by an inorganic cation or an inorganic substrate such as aluminum hydrate. 

Another cosmetic appHcation of aluminum compounds is as lakes for Hpstick manufacture (21). A water-soluble dye can become a Hpstick ingredient if combined with compounds that are colorless and insoluble. The result, caHed a lake, is insoluble in both oil and water. Some dyes are laked with alumina others are dissolved in water and treated with solutions that precipitate Al(OH)2 with the dye molecules occluded in the precipitate. These... 

Lakes. Lakes are a special kind of color additive prepared by precipitating a soluble dye onto an approved iasoluble base or substratum. In the case of D C and Ext. D C lakes, this substratum may be alumina, blanc fixe, gloss white, clay, titanium dioxide, 2iac oxide, talc, rosia, aluminum ben2oate, calcium carbonate, or any combination of two or more of these materials. Currentiy, alumina is the only substratum approved for manufactuting FD C lakes. 

Siace there are ao solveat-soluble FD C colors, FD C lakes have provea particularly valuable for coloring water-repelliag foods such as fats, gums, waxes, and oils, and for coloring food-packagiag materials including lacquers, containers, plastic films, and inks from which soluble dyes would be quickly leached. Similarly useful appHcations have been found for D C and Ext. D C lakes ia their respective areas of appHcatioa. 

The use of images in terms of oxidized developer to release dyes initially immobilized through a sulfonamide linkage has been described (33). In one approach color coupling leads to ting closure and concomitant release of an alkah-soluble dye (eq. 1). 

A second approach utilizes the oxidation of alow mobiUty substituted 4-hydroxydiphenylamine to which an image dye is linked through a sulfonamide group. Oxidation and hydrolysis result in ting closure and release of the alkaU-soluble dye (eq. 2). 

Hydrophobic fibers are difficult to dye with ionic (hydrophilic) dyes. The dyes prefer to remain in the dyebath where they have a lower chemical potential. Therefore nonionic, hydrophobic dyes are used for these fibers. The exceptions to the rule are polyamide and modified polyacrylonitriles and modified polyester where the presence of a limited number of ionic groups in the polymer, or at the end of polymer chains, makes these fibers capable of being dyed by water-soluble dyes. 

Other New Methods. Because the values obtained are dependent on the conditions of measurement, standard test procedures are under review by ISO for determination of cold-water solubiUty of water-soluble dyes (38) determination of the solubiUty and solution stabiUty of water-soluble dyes (39) and determination of the electrolyte stabiUty of reactive dyes (40). 

Both acids and alkalis will adversely affect the material. Strong alkalis and acids will cause decomposition. The water absorption is high and consequently casein is easily stained. As a corollary to this it may be dyed without difficulty. Acidic and basic water-soluble dyes are normally used. Typical properties of casein plastics are given in Table 30.2. 

Although the substitution of a preformed phthalocyanine always leads to a complex mixture of more- or less-substituted products, the reaction is of major industrial importance. Besides the chloro- and bromocopper phthalocyanines, also polysulfonated phthalocyanines, which are used as water-soluble dyes, are produced by the reaction of copper phthalocyanine with the respective reactant. While typical aromatic reactions of the Friedel-Crafts type are also possible,333 direct nitration of the macrocycle commonly results in oxidation of the phthalocyanine. However, under mild conditions it is possible to introduce the nitro group directly into several phthalocyanines.334... 

In a typical acid—base titration, the analyte is a solution of a base and the titrant is a solution of an acid or vice versa. An indicator a water-soluble dye (Section J), helps us detect the stoichiometric point, the stage at which the volume of titrant added is exactly that required by the stoichiometric relation between titrant and analyte. For example, if we titrate hydrochloric acid containing a few drops of the indicator phenolphthalein, the solution is initially colorless. After the stoichiometric point, when excess base is present, the solution in the flask is basic and the indicator is pink. The indicator color change is sudden, so it is easy to detect the stoichiometric point (Fig. L.3). Toolbox L.2 shows how to interpret a titration the procedure is summarized in diagram (3), where A is the solute in the titrant and B is the solute in the analyte. 

The penetration of ions from the subphase into the shell of spread particles is a general phenomenon and can be used to modify and functionalize the particle surface. For example, metal ions, such as Ba and Fe, or cationic polyelectrolytes, such as the polycation of polyallylamine, can be adsorbed at anionic particles, while anionic water-soluble dyes, such as phthalocyanine tetrasulfonic acid and 1.4-diketo-3.6-diphenylpyrrolo[3.4-c]pyrrole-4, 4 -disulfonic acid (DPPS) [157], can be adsorbed at cationic particles. However, since only a monolayer of the dye is adsorbed, a deep coloration of the particles is not obtained unless a dye with very high absorption coefficient is used [156],... 

The oil phase included a fatty acid, a fatty alcohol and hydrocarbons. The emulsion had a pH of 5.1 to 5.4, exhibited emulsion and pH stability at 37 for at least 21 days, and was shown to be an oil-in-water type by being readily dispersible in water and by its uptake of a water-soluble dye. In inhibition... 

Lakes are prepared by adsorption or precipitation of a soluble dye on an insoluble substrate (e.g., alumina). They are useful in fatty products that have insufficient moisture to dissolve dyes (coated tablets, cake mixes, hard candies, chewing gum). Lakes are insoluble in most solvents including water, have high opacity, are easily incorporated in dry media, and show higher stability to light and heat. They are effective colorants for candies, pills, fats, and oils. The main characteristics and differences between lakes and dyes are well documented. ...

Electrolytes are used to promote the exhaustion of direct or reactive dyes on cellulosic fibres they may also be similarly used with vat or sulphur dyes in their leuco forms. In the case of anionic dyes on wool or nylon, however, their role is different as they are used to facilitate levelling rather than exhaustion. In these cases, addition of electrolyte decreases dye uptake due to the competitive absorption of inorganic anions by the fibre and a decrease in ionic attraction between dye and fibre. In most discussions of the effect of electrolyte on dye sorption, attention is given only to the ionic aspects of interaction. In most cases, this does not create a problem and so most adsorption isotherms of water-soluble dyes are interpreted on the basis of Langmuir or Donnan ionic interactions only. There are, however, some observed cases of apparently anomalous behaviour of dyes with respect to electrolytes that cannot be explained by ionic interactions alone.
