Abstract:
Derivatives of o-amino benzoic acid (anthranilic acid) were synthesized using 1-naphthol-3,6-disulfonic acid, 1-Naphthol-8 amino-3, 6-di-sulfonic acid; 1-naphthol-3-sulfonic acid, 6-methylamino-1-naphthol-3-sulfonic acid or 1-naphthol-3-sulfonic acid, 6-phenylamino-1-naphthol-3-sulfonic acid as a coupling component. These derivatives were used to synthesize chromium (III) complexes. After isolation, these complexes were applied on pure wool fabric by exhaust process to evaluate hue, wash fastness and light fastness properties. The complexes delivered a change in color equivalent to gray scale step 3/5 to 4/5 for wash fastness test. During the study of light fastness, it was monitored that the hue of dyed fabrics enhanced after exposing them to light.
