An internationally recognized expert in color chemistry surveys the wide use of colorants and highlights its links with physical organic chemistry, reaction engineering, and physical chemistry. The book covers dye synthesis, emphasizing mechanisms and catalytic processes, as well as the scientific basis of traditional coloration and new applications in areas such as information storage, liquid crystal displays, and optical data disks. For organic chemists the author demonstrates that dyes and pigments have a series of characteristic and fundamentally interesting structural features and that they illuminate a number of reactions of general relevance to them.
