Synthesis and characterisation of Azo dyes derived from Naphthalen-2-ol and their washfastness properties on cotton, wool and nylon fabrics
A series of azo dyes was synthesised by coupling reaction of napththalen-2-ol with diazotized 4- sodiumphenolate, 4-Nitrophenylazo and 4-Chlorophenylazo respectively, as diazo components. The characterization of the dyes was carried out by GC/MS analysis. The solubility of dyes in the visible absorption spectra was also determined. The dyeing per...
