Solvent Violet 58 is an organic solvent dye belonging to the anthraquinone class, recognized for its vivid violet hue and high transparency in solution. It is typically supplied as a dark violet powder or crystalline solid, showing excellent solubility in a wide range of organic solvents such as alcohols, esters, ketones, and hydrocarbons. Known for its outstanding lightfastness, high coloring strength, and thermal stability, Solvent Violet 58 is widely used for coloring plastics, synthetic fibers, coatings, inks, and waxes. Its molecular structure provides strong resistance to migration and fading, making it suitable for demanding applications where color stability is critical.

20 or 25kg/compound bag, carton box, iron drum, fiber durm for powder dye and 1000kg/tank for liquid dye.
Thanks to its anthraquinone structure, Solvent Violet 58 offers exceptional lightfastness, meaning it resists fading when exposed to sunlight for extended periods. This makes it ideal for outdoor products and automotive applications.
Suitability for food-contact applications depends on regional regulations such as FDA or EU standards. Always verify compliance with relevant safety and migration limits before use in packaging or utensils.
Yes. It is often blended with other solvent dyes or pigments to create custom shades. Its high solubility in organic solvents allows for uniform mixing and stable color formulations.
Solvent Violet 58 is heat stable and can typically withstand processing temperatures up to 300°C without significant color degradation, making it suitable for most thermoplastic processing methods.
