direct dye
A direct dye is a colorant substance that is soluble and can be applied directly to the textile substrate in an aqueous solution without the need for a mordant or a fixative. They are typically used for dyeing cellulose fibers like cotton and linen. The name "direct dye" refers to their method of application, which directly bonds to the fibers due to substantivity properties in the dye.
