M. Blanco et al., USE OF INDIRECT MULTIPLE LINEAR-REGRESSION FOR MULTICOMPONENT DYE ANALYSIS IN A LEATHER TANNING BATH, Journal of the Society of Dyers and Colourists, 113(11), 1997, pp. 311-316
A spectrophotometric method for the simultaneous determination of dyes
with spectral interaction in three-colour baths by use of multiple li
near regression with indirect calibration has been developed. This met
hod discretely allows the components of the dyeing bath to be quantifi
ed with errors of less than 3% and within 1-2 min of sampling. The met
hod has been applied to monitor the dyeing of chromium-tanned bovine l
eather splits subjected to various retanning procedures.
