	MORDANT - Online Information article about MORDANT (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The mordant most largely employed for wool is bichromate of potash, since, besides being simply applied, and leaving the wool with a soft feel, it yields with the various mordant-dyestuffs a large variety of fast colours.
		On wool the mordant is bichromate of potash; on cotton and silk an iron mordant is employed.
		Coerulein is employed in dyeing wool, silk or cotton with aluminium or chromium mordants, either as a self-colour or for compound shades.

	mordant - Encyclopedia.com
		Either the mordant (if it is colloidal) or a colloid produced by the mordant adheres to the fiber, attracting and fixing the colloidal mordant dye (see colloid); the insoluble, colored precipitate that is formed is called a lake.
		Cloth to be dyed may be treated first with the mordant and then with the dye, or the mordant and dye may be applied together.

	Dye - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The dye is usually used as an aqueous solution, and may require a mordant to improve the fastness of the dye on the fibre.
		Mordant dyes require a mordant, which improves the fastness of the dye against water, light and perspiration.
		The most important mordant dyes are the synthetic mordant dyes, or chrome dyes, used for wool; these comprise some 30% of dyes used for wool, and are especially useful for fl and navy shades.

	Mordant dyes, Dying, Textile colors
		Mordant dyes are those dyes which require a mordant in their application and which upon combination with the mordant deposit insoluble color on the substrate, e.g., dyes with metal chelating groups.
		Mordants are substances of organic or inorganic origin which combine with the coloring matter and are used to fix the same in the production of the color.
		The mordant substances include such acids as tannic acid, sumac, gall nuts, bark extracts, oleic and stearic acids, and Turkey red oil; and metallic substances such as various combinations or soluble salts of chromium, aluminum, iron, copper, and tin.

	StainsFile - Stain theory - How mordants work
		This term is derived from lac, a mordant dye obtained from an insect in India, and from which shellac is obtained.
		The attachment of the mordant metal to tissue is essentially by the same mechanism as that causing attachment to the dye.
		Attachment of mordanted dye is due to the mordant forming a chelate with a phosphate hydroxyl and another atom in a manner very similar to that between the mordant and the dye.

	Mordant - Wikipedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		A mordant is either inherently colloidal or produces colloids and can be either acidic or basic.
		Mordants include tannic acid, alum, chrome alum, and certain salts of aluminum, chromium, copper, iron, iodine, potassium, sodium chloride (ordinary table salt) and tin.

		The mordant joins with the fiber and the dye to set the color permanently.
		It enters deeply into the fiber, and when the dye is added, they combine to form a color; since the mordant is thoroughly embedded, so is the color.

		In any case, the mordant must be one which, by whatever mechanism, is capable of being retained in the photohardened form of the composition, in addition to being compatible as hereinbefore defined.

		The amounts of mordant and binder used for the receiver layer are not critical and can range, for the mordant, between about 5.0 mg/dm.sup.2 (50 mg/ft.sup.2) and about 50 mg/dm.sup.2 (500 mg/ft.sup.2) and, for the binder, between about 0 and about 60 mg/dm.sup.2 (600 mg/ft.sup.2).

		Mordant Pot Economy: When mordanting regularly with the same substrate, (dedicated silk mordant pot, dedicated wool mordant pot), it is possible to ‘re-seed’ the mordant pot by using the remaining mordant solution from the previous mordanting event.

		MORDANT comes from the French, meaning "to bite." Mordants are mineral salts that bind dyes into fiber, assure light- and wash-fastness, prevent color bleeding, brightens or changes some dye colors.
		Dissolve mordant in a little water before adding to dyepot or color may be splotchy.
		Alum and copper mordanted fiber doesn't need rinsing before going to the dyepot, but iron and tin mordanted fiber should be rinsed to prevent it from harming or stiffening fiber.

	John Marshall: mordants
		In the context of how the word will be used in this text, mordanting is adding a substance to the dye source to influence it, that is to bringing out characteristics that may be otherwise hidden or suppressed.
		Mordants are commercially available, commonly in the form of salts from metals such as tin, chrome, iron, copper, and aluminum.
		The advantage is that the mordant has a chance to "bite" into the fiber, so that when the color is applied, a maximum amount of bonding takes place.

	What's the difference between mordants and the other chemical assistants used in dyeing?
		A mordant is a metal ion which attaches to the fiber, usually by being boiled together for a length of time.
		Most but not all natural dyes are mordant dyes, which require the metal ion to be in the fiber in order for them to have any attraction to the fiber.
		In some cases a mordant will improve the washfastness of an acid dye on wool, but there is no need to use a mordant with most synthetic acid dyes.

	Color diffusion transfer receiving layer comprising polymeric quaternary n-heterocyclic mordant - Patent 4124386
		The polymer mordant having the structural unit represented by general formula (I) can be prepared by reacting a homopolymer, copolymer, or graft polymer of a halomethylstyrene, preferably a homopolymer, copolymer, or graft polymer of chloromethylstyrene, and a heterocyclic compound or by quaternizing the monomer with a heterocyclic compound and then polymerizing the product.
		Or, further, the polymer mordant can be readily prepared by reacting a homopolymer of N-vinylimidazole or a copolymer of N-vinylimidazole and a vinylic monomer such as styrene, methyl methacrylate, and N-vinylpyrrolidone with a benzyl halide in a solvent such as dimethylformamide, dioxane, or ethanol.
		Alternatively, the layer of the polymer mordant need not be formed preliminarily on the support and a solution of the polymer mordant can be applied on the surface of the support simultaneously when a liquid processing composition is spread thereover at development.

		Mordant Music's Dead Air is the type of album meant to be experienced, not casually listened to.
		More artistic than accessible, more stream of consciousness than steady dance floor fodder, Mordant Music masterfully weaves such elements as musique concrete to electro, making them vanguards with a sound palette that they brush over a world of wire, static, steel, and mortar.
		Vibrant, though not vacuous, Dead Air will remind some listeners of a late night movie they watched even though they didn't quite grasp the plot; a movie they continued to watch until the credits rolled and they were left contemplating what they had just witnessed.

		In other words, the greatest amounts of color change were attributed to alum and tin mordants and the least amount of color change occurred with chrome, copper, and iron mordants as indicated by the significant main effects.
		However, when comparing all dye-mordant combinations, there was one dye (choke cherry) with an alum mordant that had less color change than three dyes with chrome mordants (see Figure 2), yet even choke cherry followed the general trend of having the most color change when it was mordanted with alum or tin.
		In fact, the tin mordant had a slope, B =.1557, which was five times larger than the slope with the copper mordant, B =.0319 (see Figure 3).
