Solvent Yellow 14, more commonly known as Sudan I, is a classic and highly versatile oil-soluble dye. It produces a strong, reddish-orange shade and is valued for its excellent solubility in hydrocarbons, oils, and fats. It is an extremely economical colorant for a wide range of industrial applications, particularly for coloring waxes, shoe polishes, and mineral oils, where its strong, warm color makes it a staple.
