High-Fastness Yellow for Polyamide Plastics

Solvent Yellow 176 is a metal-complex solvent dye known for its good fastness properties, particularly on polyamide resins. It produces a neutral, mid-yellow shade and offers a combination of good heat stability and lightfastness. Its excellent affinity for polyamide makes it a preferred choice for the mass coloration of nylon and other engineering plastics where a durable, long-lasting yellow is required.

Applications
  • Plastics Coloring: A primary application is the coloration of polyamide (PA6, PA66) and other engineering plastics.
  • Coatings: Used in high-performance coatings and industrial finishes.
  • Printing Inks: Suitable for specialty printing inks requiring high fastness.
