The Effect of the Substrate on the Isomerization of Model Disperse Dyes based on Stilbene

Abstract
A study of the thermal isomerization of a series of model disperse dyes based on stilbene is described. The results show that the rate of isomerization is influenced by the basicity of the substrate and also by the moisture content. It is suggested that the observed humidity effect is due to an increase in the ease of diffusion of the dye molecules in the substrate.
