The second in a series on colour chemistry, this volume covers the techniques presently in use for identifying and analyzing synthetic colourants. The approach is practical and particular attention is paid to recent developments.

This book should be of interest to analytical chemists and colour chemists working in paints, textiles and dyes research in industry and academia.
