Direct dyes are sodium salts of aromatic acids and most of them
contain azo group as the main chromophore.

Their long flat (coplanar) structure enables them to lie along a
cellulose chain in register with hydroxyl groups and results in
effective vander waals forces.

EFFECT OF LIQUOR RATIO
Dye bath exhaustion should increase with decrease in the dyeing
liquor ratio in case of direct dye.
Lower liquor ratio enhances exhaustion for substantive dyes
Dyeing at low liquor ratio
Decreases the amount of waste dye in the
effluent.
Consumes less water and steam, and
Allows a given salt concentration with less
added salt.
