Synthetic dyes are substances that impart color to other materials such as textile, foodstuff, paper, and others. These are relatively stable to external factors such as washing and light. These dyes play important roles in modern life, with applications in both industry and scientific laboratories. Synthetic dyes are widely used in various end-use industries such as textile, leather, paint, and food & beverage. Acid dye, basic dye, reactive dye, direct dye, sulfur dye, disperse dye and solvent dye are the types of synthetic dyes. The rise of the dyestuffs industry in China and India is seen as an important driver of the synthetic dyes market globally. Growing development of low-VOC and eco-friendly dye products would provide ample growth opportunities to the market.
