| Abstract: | Every herb can be used to make dye. Herbal dyes being
natural tend to be softer and their range of tones is very pleasant. At present
total market of herbal dyes is to the tune of US $ 1 billion and is growing
tremendously at the rate of 12%per annum. Per capita consumption of dyes is 400g
to 15 kg in developed and underdeveloped countries for their utility in paints,
inks, textiles, polymers, etc. India is a major exporter of herbal dyes mostly
due to ban on production of some of the synthetic dyes and intermediates in the
developed countries due to pollution problem. Nature has gifted us more than 500
colour yielding plants. The present paper is an aid to a collective enquiry into
the Indian dye yielding plants, their parts and chemical
constituents. |
