Description

n-(2-Ethylhexyl)-1-[[3-Methyl-4-[(4-Methylphenyl)Azo]Phenyl]Azo]Naphthalen-2-Amine CAS NO 93964-08-0 is a high-performance, oil-soluble azo dye intermediate. This compound is valued for its excellent color strength and stability in non-polar matrices, making it a critical component for producing durable pigments. It is primarily required by manufacturers in the plastics, synthetic fibers, and specialty ink industries seeking to impart consistent, vibrant coloration to their products.

Application

• Primary colorant and masterbatch component for the coloration of polyolefins (PP, PE) and engineering plastics.
• Production of solvent-based inks and toners for packaging and industrial printing.
• Dyeing agent for synthetic fibers, particularly those requiring high-temperature processing stability.
• Manufacturing of pigments for coatings and paints where oil solubility is advantageous.
• Coloration of waxes, greases, and lubricants for product identification.
• Intermediate in the synthesis of more complex, high-value azo pigment derivatives.

Quality Control

Our production of this azo dye intermediate adheres to strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. Every lot is tested against stringent in-house specifications for identity, purity, and coloristic properties. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its light-sensitive nature, prolonged exposure to direct light should be avoided to maintain product integrity.
