Description

Solvent Red 119 CAS NO 12237-27-3 is a high-performance, oil-soluble red dye belonging to the anthraquinone class of colorants. This compound is valued for its excellent solubility in non-polar organic solvents and its ability to impart a strong, stable red coloration. It is primarily used by manufacturers in the plastics, coatings, and specialty ink industries where consistent color quality and thermal stability are critical for product performance.

Application

• Plastics Coloring: Used as a masterbatch or direct colorant for a variety of polymers, including polystyrene (PS), polycarbonate (PC), and ABS, providing vibrant red hues with good light and heat stability.
• Industrial Coatings and Paints: Imparts durable red color to solvent-based industrial coatings, automotive refinish paints, and decorative finishes.
• Specialty Inks: A key component in the formulation of high-quality printing inks, including flexographic and gravure inks, for packaging and publications.
• Wood Stains and Polishes: Used to color wood stains, furniture polishes, and leather treatment products.
• Waxes and Greases: Employed as a color marker or identifier in industrial lubricants, waxes, and sealing compounds.
• Cosmetic Raw Materials: Used in the coloration of specific cosmetic products where oil solubility is required, subject to regional regulatory compliance.
