madder (colorant) (<colorant for dye and pigment>, colorant (material), ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: A natural organic colorant extracted from the roots of any of several species of the genus Rubia, having a reddish color. Madder has been used as a colorant for dyeing textiles since ancient times in India, Persia, and Egypt. It has been largely replaced as a dye and a pigment by synthetic alizarin. Used for dye and lake pigment preparation. |
