| dc.description.abstract | The synthesis of direct dyes derived from terephthalic and isophthalic acid using J and Hacids was undertaken with the view of replacing benzidine moiety in the production of direct dyes. The amide derivatives of isophthalic and terephthalic acids were used as the coupling components while aniline and its derivatives were used as the source of diazo components. The amide derivatives were characterized by GC/MS and Infra-red analysis. The spectroscopic properties of the dyes in various solvents were also examined and most of the dyes showed bathochromic shifts when the solvent was changed to more polar solvents. The dyes also showed positive and negative halochromism with the addition of few drops of hydrochloric acid (HCl). The synthesized dyes were applied to cotton fabrics and their performance properties evaluated. They have good exhaustion in the presence of electrolyte and have good wash fastness properties upon application of after-treating agents of values of 3-4, 4 and 4-5. They also had good fastness properties to light of values between 4-7. Their resistance to rubbing and perspiration had values between 3 and 4-5. The toxicity of the dyes was also studied and they were found to be non-toxic. | en_US |
