Diarylide pigment

Diarylide pigments are organic compounds that are used as pigments in inks and related materials. They often are yellow or yellow-green. To some extent, these organic compounds have displaced cadmium sulfide from the market. Being pigments, these compounds exist as (yellow) powders of low solubility in water. They are similar to the simpler monoazo pigments called arylide yellows.
