Acid Red 88 is a widely used levelling acid dye, also known by the commercial name Acid Fast Red A. It is known for its bright, bluish-red shade and good lightfastness, making it a staple in the dyer’s palette. This monoazo dye gives excellent colour build-up and consistent, repeatable results on protein and polyamide fibres. Its balance of brightness, fastness, and economic value makes it a go-to choice for a broad spectrum of textile and industrial applications.
