Direct Yellow 147

Powder properties

Direct Yellow 147 (Powder) is a synthetic direct dye supplied in yellow powder form. It is water-soluble and mainly used for dyeing cellulosic fibers such as cotton, viscose, and rayon. The dye can be applied directly from an aqueous dye bath without the need for complex chemical fixing agents.

Shade: Brilliant Yellow

Liquid properties

Direct Yellow 147 (liquid) is formulated for efficient, uniform dyeing of cellulosic fibers such as cotton and viscose.Designed for industrial processing, the liquid format reduces dust and improves dosing accuracy during continuous and batch dyeing.Compared with standard powder grades, our liquid Direct Yellow 147 offers faster dispersion and fewer handling losses — helping production lines stay cleaner and more consistent.

Shade: Brilliant Yellow liquid‍.

Why choose our Direct Yellow 147?

  • Consistent shade delivery: carefully controlled production ensures repeatable results from lot to lot.
  • Operational advantages: liquid format for easier metering and reduced airborne dust in the mill.
  • Balanced performance: optimized for a good balance of brightness, leveling and wet-fastness on cellulose.
  • Scale-ready supply: flexible packaging and logistic support for industrial volumes.

Application

  • ‍Direct Yellow 147 use for Ink,Textile printing,Paper,Paints,Plastic,Jute.
  • Primarily used in textile dyeing (piece and continuous), Direct Yellow 147 also finds applications in paper tinting, leather finishing and specialty inks where a bright direct yellow is required. It is well suited for mills seeking reliable lots and simple handling.‍

Usage & Handling (guidance)

Add Direct Yellow 147 to the dye-bath after water is warmed and mixing established. For best results, ensure even dispersion before fabric introduction and follow standard leveling and fixation practices specific to your process. Always consult the technical data sheet (TDS) and MSDS for exact dosing, pH, and compatibility with auxiliaries.
