Key Features & Benefits

  • Vivid Shade: Delivers an intense yellow suitable for inks and coatings.
  • Good Solubility: Compatible with many organic solvent systems.
  • High Tinting Strength: Low usage rates for cost-effective coloring.
  • Batch Consistency: Tight quality control for repeatable results.
  • Application Flexibility: Widely used in inks, coatings and select plastics.

Applications of Solvent Yellow 160:1

Widely used across industries — compatibility testing recommended.

  • Printing inks: Solvent-based gravure & flexo inks for packaging and labels.
  • Coatings & Varnishes: Decorative and protective solvent-borne coatings.
  • Plastics: Coloring of polystyrene, ABS, and some engineering plastics (test first for polyolefins).
  • Specialty formulations: Additives and concentrates for color matching.

Recommended Use Guidelines

  • Dissolve the dye in an organic solvent or pre-dissolve in a carrier at recommended concentrations.
  • Typical dosing: 0.05–2.0% (w/w) depending on shade depth and substrate — perform lab trials for final formulations.
  • Filter solutions to remove undissolved particles before incorporation in high-speed processes.
