New Results in the Theory and Practical Application of Color

The chapter provides new data on color phenomenon that we have discovered in recent years for complex and simple substances. For example, these are the effects of the relationship of physical and chemical properties and color characteristics (in color systems RGB or XYZ) of compounds (color properties principle). In particu-lar, the effects of conjugation of ionization potential and electron affinity of light-absorbing molecules in the visible region were found. The theoretical explanation of these effects from the position of quantum theory is given. Using mathematical statistics, it is shown that the effects can be used for practical measurement of various properties of complex multicomponent substances. The results indicate the practical use of these effects in chemical technology, nanophysics, and medicine.
