Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book studies natural organic coloring matters extracted from plants, a subject once of immense importance in the textile industry. The decline of the natural dye industry in the wake of synthetic alternatives has, however, led to a diminished understanding of these substances. In this volume, the author presents their history, from ancient origins to theoretical and practical advancements made in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The author's objective is to make information on these dyes, their sources, properties, and chemical structures, more readily available for future research.
