Acknowledgement
I would like to express a deep sense of
thanks and gratitude to my chemistry
teachers Mrs. Mandakrantha Basu and Mrs.
Ayesha Tasneem for guiding me immensely
through the course of my project. Their
constructive advice and constant motivation
have been responsible for the successful

Types of dye
The dyes are classified by dye manufacturers for
marketing into the following types:
1. Acid dyes: These are azo dyes and are
characterized by the presence of acidic
groups. The presence of soluble and serves
as the reactive points for fixing the dye to the
fibre. They are chiefly used for dyeing wool,
silk and nylon. For example, Orange I and
Orange II.
2. Basic dyes: These dyes contain NH2 or NR2.
In acidic solutions, these form water soluble
cations and use the anionic sites on the fabric

OBJECTIVE
To dye wool and cotton with malachite green.
REQUIREMENTS
500 ml beakers, tripod stand, wire gauze, glass
rod, spatula, wool cloth and cotton cloth.
Chemicals required: Sodium carbonate, tannic
acid, tartaremetic acid, and malachite green dye.
PROCEDURE
1. Preparation of sodium carbonate
solution: Take about 0.5 g of solid sodium
carbonate and dissolve it in 250 ml of water.
2. Preparation of tartaremetic solution: Take
about 0.2 g of tartaremetic and dissolve it in
100 ml of water by stirring with the help of
glass rod.
3. Preparation of tannic acid solution: Take
100 ml of water in a beaker and add about 1.0
g of tannic acid to it. Heat the solution. On
heating a clear solution of tannic acid is
obtained.
4. Preparation of dye solution: Take about 0.1
g of malachite green dye and add to it 4oo ml
of water. On warming a clear solution of the
dye results.
5. Dyeing of wool: Take about 200 ml of dye
solution and dip it in the woolen cloth to be
dyed. Boil the solution for about 2 minutes.
After that remove the cloth and wash it with
hot water 3-4 times, squeeze and keep it for
drying.
