Solvent Red 23

Solvent Red 23 is a bright, oil-soluble red dye designed for tinting nonpolar matrices. It dissolves readily in many organic solvents and plasticizers, delivers high tinting strength and transparent red shades, and maintains consistent color during thermoplastic processing. Typical uses include PMMA, ABS, HIPS, PS, RPVC, inks and coatings.

Features

  • Strong tinting power with bright red shade
  • Transparent coloration for clear plastic systems
  • Excellent solubility in organic solvents
  • Stable performance under processing heat
  • Compatible with PMMA, ABS, PS and inks

Applications

mainly used in coloring different kinds of plastics,such as PS,HIPS,ABS,PMMA,AS,PET,RPVC,SAN,etc.also used in paint, ball pen ink and the raw liquor of terylene fibre.
