Basic Violet 14 used for paper, leather, feathers, bamboo, wood, shading.

Use condition:

  • ‍1. Silk dyeing: suitable for dyeing silk, carried out in an acetic acid bath.
  • 2. Acrylic dyeing: used for dyeing acrylic fiber, adding retarder in acetic acid bath, good dyeing fastness, dry cleaning fastness 4~5 grade, shrinking fastness 5. It is often combined with malachite green (CIBasicGreen4) The black color of the dyed acrylic yarn can be obtained in black and black, and the light fastness is significantly improved compared with the case of separate application.
  • 3. Wool dyeing: The dyeing fastness dyed on wool is poor, the light fastness is 1~2, and the soaping fastness is 3~4.
  • 4. Cotton dyeing: It can be used for tannin mordant cotton fiber dyeing, but the dyeing fastness is poor.
  • 5. Others: It can be used for coloring and manufacturing lakes of leather, paper, feathers, wheat straw, bamboo and the like.‍
