DYE INDUSTRY:

Paints, textiles, printing inks, paper, and plastics are just a few of the consumer products that dyes are employed in. They enhance the appearance of materials by adding colour and patterns. Natural dyes derived from plants, fruits, and flowers have been used to colour cloth and other materials since 3500 BC.

DYESTUFF:

Dyestuffs are chromophore-containing organic and inorganic chemicals that can alter the physical and chemical properties of any substance, as well as absorb and reflect light to produce colour. They are a complicated unsaturated molecule.

PIGMENTS:

A pigment is a substance that, by wavelength-selective absorption, alters the colour of reflected or transmitted light. In other words, it’s a material that has a specific colour due to the selective absorption of specific wavelengths of light. Pigments are mostly used to add colour to materials, whether they are textiles or paints. Pigments and dyes are frequently confused, however they are not the same thing. The main distinction between the two is in terms of solubility.

DYE INTERMEDIATES:

Dye intermediates are petroleum byproducts that are further processed for use in a variety of applications. They are turned into finished dyes and pigments during processing. Textiles, polymers, paints, printing inks, and paper are just a few of the industries that use dye intermediates.

TYPES OF DYES:

Acid Dyes, Natural Dyes, Basic (Cationic) Dyes, Synthetic Dyes, Direct (Substantive) Dyes, Disperse Dyes, Sulfur Dyes, Pigment Dyes, Mordant Dyes, Vat Dyes, Reactive Dyes, Macromolecular Dyes, Metallized Dyes, Naphthol Dyes, Premetallized Dyes, Gel Dyeing, Developed Dyes, Azo Dyes, Aniline Dyes, Anthraquinone Dyes.

INDIA MARKET OUTLOOK

The rise of the India pigments market is driving the India dyes and pigments market. The pigments industry in India generated roughly 133.52 million tonnes of production value. The dyes and pigments industry in India accounts for over a quarter of the world market and is predicted to increase at an annual rate of 11%. Organic pigments are the most common form of pigment produced in India, accounting for 58 percent of total pigment output. The country’s cosmetic industry is assisting the growth of the pigment market. The demand for cosmetic items such as skincare, hair care, and perfume is fast increasing as a result of rising living standards and changing lifestyles, giving the Indian cosmetics industry a boost. The cosmetics industry is a significant application sector for pigments.

GLOBAL DYES MARKET:

The global dyes market is expected to increase at a CAGR of 6.3 percent in the coming years. Textile dyes are classified as direct, reactive, VAT, basic, acid, and dispersion. Consumer demand for textiles in a variety of applications is propelling the dyes market forward. Textile dyes’ growth is also fueled by decreasing manufacturing costs due to the availability of low-cost raw materials and manpower. The market is predicted to increase due to rising demand from various application industries such as textiles, paints and coatings, construction, and plastics. The use of new technology for the efficient removal of hazardous pollutants throughout the production process is being aggressively pursued by major producers. Because of the volatility in the prices of raw materials like benzene, manufacturers are likely to have varying manufacturing costs. Physical retail outlets and Internet shopping work together to create a large distribution network in the market.
