G. Rozmarin et al., CHEMICAL MODIFICATION OF FURFURAL LIGNOCELLULOSE - LIGNOCELLULOSIC DYES, Cellulose Chemistry and Technology, 29(6), 1995, pp. 691-703
Azo-dyes based on furfural lignocellulose from sunflower akenes have b
een synthesized by step reactions of nitration-reduction-diazotization
and coupling. The compounds obtained have been characterized by FT-IR
, H-1-NMR, UV spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and by their solubilit
y in various organic solvents. Cellulosic films coloured with the newl
y synthesized dyes have orange and red tint and present good light fas
tness.
