Definition
A dark blue dye or pigment derived from aniline compounds, historically used in textile and ink production.
Etymology
From cyano- (Greek kyanos 'dark blue') + -ol (a chemical suffix for hydroxyl-containing compounds or alcohols). The term emerged in 19th-century dye chemistry when synthetic blues were revolutionizing the textile industry.
Kelly Says
Before synthetic cyanols, getting dark blue dyes meant extracting indigo from plants—but aniline-based cyanols could be manufactured cheaply, which transformed the fashion industry and made blue clothes affordable for everyone.
