Microscopic and spectroscopic characteristics of cochineal lake pigments focused on tin mordants
Original language description
At first the the cochineal dyes (Dactylopius coccus) made with textile shearings were used. From 17th century the lakes prepared directly from insects became more common, typical mordants were aluminum salts like potash alum. Salts of tin were used for the first time in 17th century by Dutch inventor Cornelius Drebbel. In 18th century this method spread in Europe and was well known for its brighter scarlet colour. This presentation displays the procedure of creation of lake pigments and summarizes the properties of lake pigments originating from different methods of precipitation of cochineal described by historical sources. The focus is on lakes prepared with different tin based mordants considering their different properties such as manipulability. However, the potash alum as mordant was also employed to compare properties with tin mordants lakes. Microscopic and spectroscopic properties of prepared lakes were determined. The possibilities of differentiation of tin salts mordats lakes by UV-VIS reflectance spectroscopy were explored.
