Description

C.I. Disperse Blue 106 Press Cake is a high-performance, anthraquinone-based disperse dye supplied in a press cake form for optimal handling and dispersion. This product is engineered to deliver excellent color strength, wash fastness, and sublimation properties, which are critical for demanding textile applications. It is primarily used by manufacturers in the synthetic fiber industry seeking reliable and vibrant blue coloration for polyester and acetate fabrics.

Application

• Dyeing of polyester fibers and fabrics, including textured yarns and microfibers.
• Dyeing of cellulose acetate and triacetate textiles.
• High-temperature, high-pressure (HTHP) dyeing processes for uniform shade build-up.
• Thermosol or continuous dyeing ranges for polyester/cotton blends.
• Production of automotive textiles requiring high light and wash fastness.
• Coloration of sportswear and outdoor apparel for durable, bright shades.
• Used in the preparation of liquid or powder disperse dye formulations.
• Potential application in the mass coloration of plastics, such as polycarbonate or polystyrene.
