Mixtures of tetra-, penta-, or pararosanilin that vary in shade of violet depending on the extent of methylation (designated R for reddish shades, B for bluish shades); the hexamethyl compound is known as crystal violet, the pentamenthyl compound as methyl violet 6B. methyl violet stains have many bacteriologic, histologic, and cytologic applications.

Similar kind of trendlines was also observed for adsorption of methyl violet dye.
Similar type of isotherms was also obtained for methyl violet dye.
Methyl violet dye was also observed to show similar fitting (not shown).
As can be seen in Figure 4, the degradation rate decreased with increase of initial concentration of methyl violet. This might be due to the excessive adsorption of the methyl violet molecules on the surface of catalyst at higher concentration.
Therefore, the effect of pH on the degradation of methyl violet was studied at pH range from 3.5 to 7.5.
The kinetics of photocatalytic degradation of methyl violet was also studied under optimized conditions.
