"mordant": A substance capable of binding a dye to a textile fiber. The mordant forms an insoluble lake in the fiber, the color depending on the metal of the mordant. The most important mordants are trivalent chromium complexes, metallic hydroxides, tannic acid, etc. Mordants are used with acid dyes, basic dyes, direct dyes, and sulfur dyes. Premetallized dyes contain chromium in the dye molecule. A mordant dye is a dye requiring use of a mordant to be effective. 3, record 1, English, - mordant%20dye

Colorants à mordants, dénommés aussi colorants au chrome, colorants chromatables et parfois colorants d'alizarine. Ce sont des colorants acides métallisables, utilisés sous forme libre, le complexe avec le métal étant formé au cours de l'opération de teinture. La laine ayant aussi la propriété de complexer le métal, on aboutit à la formation d'une combinaison très solide laine-métal-colorant, dans laquelle l'atome métallique sert de lien. 4, record 1, French, - colorant%20%C3%A0%20mordant
