Solvent Red 118(CAS#12237-26-2)
Solvent Red 118(CAS#12237-26-2)
Physicochemical properties
Appearance: Usually a red powdery substance, bright and full color, with a certain gloss.
Solubility: soluble in a variety of organic solvents, such as chloroform, methylene chloride, toluene, xylene, etc., showing good solubility, the solution is generally bright red. Slightly soluble in relatively polar organic solvents such as ethanol, almost insoluble in water.
Melting Point: Generally between 195°C – 205°C, but the exact value may vary depending on the purity of the product and the test conditions.
Stability: It has good stability at room temperature and pressure, but in high temperature, strong acid, strong alkali environment, or when in contact with strong oxidants, decomposition reaction may occur, resulting in color change or performance change. Under light conditions, especially when exposed to ultraviolet light for a long time, there may be a certain degree of fading, but it has a certain amount of lightfastness.
use
Plastic coloring: It is a commonly used red colorant in the plastic industry, which can be used for coloring polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polystyrene (PS), polycarbonate (PC), polypropylene (PP) and other plastics. It can give plastic products a bright red color, and is widely used in the production of plastic pipes, plastic films, plastic containers, electronic product shells, automotive interior parts and other plastic products, so as to enhance the appearance quality and market competitiveness of products.
Ink field: It is widely used in ink manufacturing, especially solvent-based ink, which can make the ink show a bright red color, and is used to print various packaging materials, labels, posters, books, etc. It has good printing adaptability and drying performance, which can ensure that the printed matter is bright and clear, and has good abrasion resistance and water resistance.
Coating industry: It can be added to solvent-based coatings, powder coatings and varnishes for surface coating of metal, wood, plastic and other materials, providing red decorative effect for coatings, and at the same time, it can also improve the lightfastness, weather resistance and chemical resistance of coatings to a certain extent, and enhance the protective performance of coatings.
Other applications: It can also be used to color wax products, greases, candles and other products, giving these products a distinctive red hue. In some special application fields, such as optical materials, display materials, etc., it may also play a certain role by using its specific optical properties.
