Abstract
Dyes have been used since ages in textile dyeing, paper printing, pulp, plastics, food, cosmetics and tannery industries. The dye molecule comprises of two components: the chromophore (responsible for producing the color) and the auxochrome, which supplements the chromophore and renders its solubility in water and also provides enhanced affinity towards the fibers.
