About The Product

Napthols are azoic dyes which are largely used in handloom sector to dye cellulosic fibers. They are termed as such because their molecules hold an azo group. Distinguished by their brightness, magnificence and overall fastness features, they help to create some of the vividly colored fabrics. Some of the shades regularly produced by dyers include orange, brown, yellow, scarlet, golden yellow, black, red, violet etc.

Application of the product

1. Textile Dyeing: Naphthol Fast Bases are primarily used for dyeing cotton and other cellulosic fibers. They are often used in conjunction with coupling components, such as diazo compounds, to form azo dyes in situ on the fabric. This process is known as the “naphtholation” or “naphtholation-diazotation” process. Naphthol Fast Bases can produce a wide range of colors, including reds, oranges, yellows, and browns, depending on the specific naphthol derivative and coupling component used.
2. Vibrant Colors: Naphthol Fast Bases are known for their bright and vibrant colors, making them popular for use in fashion textiles, home textiles, and decorative fabrics. They can produce shades that are difficult to achieve with other types of dyes, particularly on cotton and other cellulosic fibers.
3. Good Fastness Properties: Naphthol Fast Bases generally exhibit good to excellent color fastness properties, including wash fastness, light fastness, and rubbing fastness. This makes them suitable for applications where durability and longevity of the dyed fabric are important.
4. Art and Craft: Naphthol Fast Bases are also used in art and craft applications, such as fabric painting and dyeing. Artists and crafters often use them to create custom-colored fabrics and textile artworks due to their versatility and vibrant colors.
5. Industrial Textiles: In addition to fashion and decorative textiles, Naphthol Fast Bases may also be used in industrial textiles, such as those used in automotive interiors, upholstery, and technical textiles. Their good fastness properties make them suitable for applications where the dyed fabric will be subjected to harsh conditions or frequent washing.
