Description
- The word alizarin comes from the Arabic word al-usara, meaning juice.
- The base ingredient of this pigment is the Madder plant (Rubia Tinctorum).
- It was used for dyes and inks among craftsmen in Ancient Persia, India, and Egypt as early as 1500 BC In 1804, George Field, an English dye maker, developed Madder Lake by binding madder to alum, a white powder.
- The German chemists Carl Grabe and Carl Liebermann produced the first synthetic variety of this pigment, most commonly known as Alizarin Crimson, in 1868.
- They used anthracene, which greatly improved the lightfastness.
- The Colour Index International designation PR83:1 has been used to identify this synthetic laked pigment.
