FAQ

What fibers can Acid Blue 260 dye effectively?

Acid Blue 260 is highly effective on protein fibers such as wool and silk, and also provides consistent results on polyamide fibers like nylon.

How should Acid Blue 260 be applied for best results?

For optimal dyeing, maintain acidic pH conditions (typically pH 4–5), use controlled temperature rise, and add appropriate electrolytes to ensure even levelling and vivid color development.

Is Acid Blue 260 compatible with other dyes?

Yes, Acid Blue 260 blends well with other acid dyes, allowing for customized shades without compromising fastness or uniformity.

What is the expected fastness of Acid Blue 260?

It exhibits good wet-fastness and moderate light-fastness, with variations depending on the fiber type and depth of shade applied.

How should Acid Blue 260 be stored?

Store in a cool, dry place, away from strong oxidizing agents. Keep containers tightly closed to maintain stability and prevent caking.
