About Acid Dyes
Acid Dyes are most commonly used for wool, polyester, nylon, & non-cotton fabrics. They are applied under low pH conditions for delivering high brightness and good fastness properties. These dyes also have a role to play in the medical industry for staining sample tissues for microscopic examination. They show excellent effectiveness on silk, angora, and feathers. Acid Dyes tend to create a strong bond with the substrate and assure superior washfast& lightfast properties. They are available in anthraquinone, azo dyes, & triaryl methane dye compositions at reasonable rates.
Superior Performance for Multiple IndustriesEngineered for versatility, these Acid Dyes serve multiple industries including textiles, leather goods, paper manufacturing, and ink production. Their compatibility with mordants ensures vivid, durable coloration on protein fibers. With robust fastness to washing and light, and exceptional solubility in water, they deliver consistent results across diverse application processes, meeting the quality expectations of exporters, manufacturers, and suppliers.

Odorless and with a moisture content of 1%, these dyes are handled, stored, and transported safely, maintaining product integrity and worker safety throughout the supply chain.
FAQs of Acid Dyes:
Q: How should Acid Dyes be stored to maintain their quality?
A: Acid Dyes should be kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Proper storage in HDPE bags or drums preserves their stability, color quality, and extends their shelf life up to two years.
Q: What types of materials can these Acid Dyes be used on?
A: These dyes are suitable for protein fibers such as wool, silk, and nylon, as well as leather and paper, making them ideal for textile dyeing, leather processing, paper coloring, and ink manufacturing.
Q: When is it necessary to use mordants with Acid Dyes?
A: Mordants are recommended when enhanced dye fixation and improved colorfastness are required, particularly for fibers that may not readily bond with the dye. Their compatibility with mordants helps achieve vibrant, long-lasting results.
Q: Where are these Acid Dyes typically applied within industrial processes?
A: These dyes find application in textile mills, leather tanneries, paper manufacturing plants, and ink production facilities in India and globally, due to their reliable performance and eco-friendly credentials.
Q: What is the process for applying Acid Dyes to textiles?
A: The dye is dissolved in water and applied to fibers in an acidic medium (pH 57). The process involves heating and agitation to ensure thorough absorption and even shade across materials. Batch or continuous dyeing methods can be employed.
Q: What are the benefits of using these Acid Dyes for industrial applications?
A: With over 98% purity and high strength, these dyes offer excellent staining ability, vibrant color shades, good wash and light fastness, and meet international safety and ecological standards. Their fine powder form ensures easy handling and consistent coloration.
Q: Are these dyes safe for transport and use in industrial environments?
A: Yes, the dyes are classified as non-hazardous and non-poisonous. They are odorless with less than 1% moisture, making them safe and stable for shipping, storage, and industrial handling.
