dyes

Dyes are substances used to add color to materials like fabric, paper, or food. They work by attaching to molecules in the material, either by absorption or bonding, which makes the color permanent or semi-permanent. Dyes can be natural, derived from plants or minerals, or synthetic, created through chemical processes. They are designed to produce specific colors and are used in various industries including textiles, printing, and cosmetics. The choice of dye depends on factors like material compatibility, colorfastness, and environmental considerations, ensuring vibrant and durable colors in everyday products.
