Shade

Bifunctional Yellow with High Fixation

Reactive Yellow 160 is a bifunctional reactive dye that produces a bright, reddish-yellow shade. It contains two different reactive groups (e.g., vinyl sulfone and triazine), which ensures a very high degree of fixation and a highly stable covalent bond with cellulosic fibres. This results in excellent wash fastness and overall durability. It is a versatile and robust dye, often used as a yellow component in trichromatic dyeing systems due to its high performance and reliability.

Applications
  • Exhaust Dyeing: A preferred choice for achieving deep, durable shades on cotton and viscose.
  • Continuous Dyeing: Performs well in cold-pad-batch and other continuous ranges.
  • Trichromatic Dyeing: Used as a high-performance yellow element for a wide colour gamut.

Key Benefits

  • Bifunctional for very high fixation rates and stability.
  • Excellent wash fastness and wet fastness.
  • Bright, reddish-yellow shade.
