Making an Azo dye

Hey guys, first video in a while. There were a lot of delays. This one is also "technically" not done yet though. I still need to add the Patreon credits, which will be there in the final version. Don't worry!! Also, thumbnail, description, etc. I just wanted to get it out to you guys asap! The final video will be posted late tomorrow or Sunday Let me know what you think about it. Next video will be DDT.


note: video has been replaced with "full one". This one also includes the Squarespace sponsorship.

My website was revamped a lot though, and you should check it out. I am proud of it. Also, I managed to snag the URL http://nile.red so that is pretty cool too.

That is definitely a cool thing to try! I didn't even know those little things existed.

I also posted this as a YouTube comment but I figured there's a higher chance of you reading it here: That's pretty cool. I just found an old notebook from about 7 years ago where I also made some azo-dyes. We used pieces of multifiber stuff to dye, which is made of several different types of textile. I made a picture of it <a href="https://i.imgur.com/yGNDf7y.jpg" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://i.imgur.com/yGNDf7y.jpg</a> You can see how the dyes give different colours and attach better to some fabrics. Maybe a fun idea to use something like this multifiber stuff in future videos.

Cyanotype might make a fun video, not particularly difficult either

Thanks, I appreciate it!

Nile Red

I look forward to it. This channel is consistently fantastic!

Paul Grodt

I'll look into adding that.

Nile Red

you did not mention that azo dyes are sometimes used in dye sensitized solar cells. It is quite interesting.

"More dyes and pigments" - I wait with excitement and bated breath.

Yeah I'm excited to make indigo too!

Nile Red

Hey, number one is special in his own way!

Nile Red

I'm going to try and eventually make every type of major dye. So reactive dyes would definitely be covered (eventually)

Nile Red

Oh, I've also always been rather curious about (dichloro)triazine dyes, aka fiber-reactive dyes, aka Procion dye.

Paul Grodt

Great idea for a topic. I'd love to see videos on other dyes, including mauvine and 4-(Phenyldiazenyl)aniline (aniline yellow).

Paul Grodt

Please do! I'm needing a new pair of beakers too cause two of mine broke recently (:

Thor Correia

Haha we will see if you're lucky :)

Nile Red

I forgot to add the contest link. I'll add it later tonight!

Nile Red

Yup. I'll do it eventually :)

Nile Red

Pretty Cool - I hope I get a sock... I really need one. ;-)

Will Latinette

One of my favourites! Thanks!

Looking forward to the dye series! Don't know how I never knew you had an Instagram. I want a pair too!

Thor Correia

Awesome! That Perkin Mauve is gorgeous. I hope that one's on your list!

Excited to see indigo! Some nice pastel pink and aqua would be great to see too &lt;3

I'll take some too XD

Sure, I'll take a sock. Not number one though.

"I'm going to start a series on dyes and pigments" yay!
