Solvent Orange 45

High-strength orange solvent dye for solvent-based inks, coatings and plastics

Solvent Orange 45 is a high-intensity solvent dye formulated to deliver vivid orange shades and reliable color performance in solvent-based systems. It exhibits excellent solubility in common organic solvents and good compatibility with common resin systems used in inks, coatings and plastics.

Key Features

  • Vivid, high-chroma orange shades
  • Excellent solubility in organic solvents (aromatic and aliphatic)
  • Good dispersion stability in solvent systems
  • Suitable for inks, coatings, solvent-borne paints and plastics
  • Available in powder and liquid (concentrate) forms

Benefits for Formulators

  • Strong tinctorial strength — lower dosing for equivalent shade
  • Consistent shade across solvent-based formulations
  • Reduced streaking and good flow in printing processes

Applications

main used for Wood stains, Aluminium, Polyester & metals foils, Printing inks, Stationery inks, Glass,Plastic & Metal coatings, Leather & Plastic coloration/finishing etc.

Usage & Dosage

Dosage depends on required shade and system. Typical starting points:

  • Printing inks: 0.1–2.0% on formulation weight (adjust per shade)
  • Coatings & paints: 0.01–1.0% depending on opacity and binder
  • Plastics: masterbatch or concentrate approach recommended

  • Keep containers tightly closed to avoid moisture ingress
What solvents dissolve Solvent Orange 45?

Solvent Orange 45 dissolves readily in common organic solvents such as toluene, xylene, ketones (MEK, acetone), and some alcohols. Solubility varies with concentration and temperature — pre-dissolution tests are recommended for your system.

Is Solvent Orange 45 suitable for printing inks?

Yes — it is commonly used in solvent-based printing inks. For best results, test in the target ink formulation (binder, solvent blend, additives) and optimize dosing to achieve the desired shade and flow.

What forms is Solvent Orange 45 available in?

We supply Solvent Orange 45 as a fine powder and as liquid concentrates (pre-dispersed in a carrier solvent). Custom concentrates and masterbatch services are available on request.
