Renewable Dyes and Pigments takes an interdisciplinary approach to bridging the gap between established knowledge of traditional natural dyes and pigments and their rapidly emerging aspects in various rapidly growing industrial sectors. Research into new natural dye and pigment sources along with the discovery of sophisticated instrumentation and technology for their processing, characterization, and applications has greatly assisted in widening their scope in various advanced application disciplines. The application of a number of synthetic dyes has detrimental effects on the environment and is associated with allergic, toxic, carcinogenic, and harmful responses. Amidst growing environmental and health concerns, eco-friendly, non-toxic dyes and pigments from renewable materials have re-emerged as a potential viable, sustainable option as an alternative or co-partner to synthetic compounds. This book covers a wide range of topics related to the chemistry and applications of natural dyes and pigments, with an emphasis on recent technological developments in textile dyeing, food sector and the use of natural pigments in dye-sensitized solar cells, and more. Covers sources, chemistry and processing of dyes and pigments from renewable sources using advanced techniques Summarizes technological developments in textile dyeing and their potential applications in other demanding sectors Examines and discusses the future of renewable dyes and pigments and outlines the major challenges in creating products and materials for textile, food and DSSC applications INDICE: 1.
