Description

Reactive Yellow 160 is a high-performance, water-soluble azo-based reactive dye designed for vibrant and durable coloration. It is a critical component for achieving excellent wash and light fastness on cellulosic fibers, ensuring long-lasting color integrity in demanding applications. This dye is essential for textile manufacturers, particularly in the cotton dyeing and printing industry, who require reliable, consistent, and cost-effective colorants for their production processes.

Application

• Exhaust dyeing of cotton and other cellulosic fibers (e.g., viscose, linen).
• Continuous dyeing processes for fabrics and yarns.
• Textile printing applications for creating patterned fabrics.
• Garment dyeing for finished apparel items.
• Dyeing of blended fabrics containing cellulosic components.
• Used in the production of home textiles like bed linens and towels.
