Solution Binding Pigment Absorption/Absorbed Solubility Solvent
Fiber Solute Mordant Dye Electrostatic
Dye is a natural or synthetic substance used to apply color to or stain other materials, such as fabrics and fibers. Permanent markers contain dyes that will be absorbed by fabrics, such as T-shirts. Absorption is a process by which matter takes in another substance. The absorbed substance is spread throughout the absorbing matter, such as when a kitchen sponge soaks up water.


Like most other things around us, dyes are mixtures. A mixture is made of two or more substances that are combined physically. A solution is a homogeneous mixture in which one or more substances (the solutes) are dissolved into another substance (the solvent). Solutions are made up of elements or compounds mixed together at the molecular level. For example, salt may be dissolved in water to form a saltwater solution. The salt is the solute, and the water is the solvent. Solubility is a physical property that describes the ability of a chemical substance (the solute) to dissolve in a solvent to create a uniform solution. A substance that dissolves in another substance is soluble.

GPT 3.5
Pigments are particles that are used to provide color to materials by binding to them. Mordants are substances used to help dyes bind more permanently to fabrics. The process of dyeing involves the electrostatic attraction between the dye and the fiber being colored. Different dyes have different solubilities, affecting how well they dissolve in solvents. By understanding the science of dyeing, we can create beautiful and long-lasting colors on various materials.
